Sadly I don't have photos or videos but I can report that Acuña was busy putting on a show for BP. There's already a buzz in the ballpark and we're still a couple of hours away from first pitch.

The time for the Braves to roster a third catcher is now
Drake Baldwin and Sean Murphy’s offensive ability demand the move.

If Michael Petersen pitches for Atlanta, he will be the first Braves player born in the U.K. since pitchers Phil Stockman ('06, '08) and Paul Marak ('90).

Spencer Schwellenbach has impressed everyone. I asked some of his
#Braves
teammates what makes him so effective. They all pointed to the arsenal, one said his past as a shortstop helps, another credited a rabbit's foot. It's my latest for the MDJ:

Schwellenbach Leading Braves’ Pitching Staff Through Tough Times
Though the early results may not be the best indicator, the Atlanta Braves’ pitching staff was expected to be a strength of the club once again this season.

Remember the 2023 Atlanta Braves? They mashed like the 1927 Yankees. They ran the bases like the Olympic 400-meter relay team. They put up more crooked numbers than the NASDAQ tote board. Are 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 Braves gone forever?

Spencer Strider's rehab appearance with Triple-A Gwinnett is done after 90 pitches. 5 1/3 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 13 K He got 47 swings and 25 whiffs (12 fastball, 10 slider, three changeup). He struck out 13 of the 21 Norfolk batters he faced. Seems like he's ready for the Majors.

Spencer Schwellenbach is pitching again tonight, and he's excelled by combining great stuff with elite arsenal interactions. I'm going to walk through each of our Arsenal Metrics to give a refresher on what they mean and show how he stands out.
