Fried Lands on IL, Freddie Finally Hits a Grand Slam & Anderson's Scuffling Start
DOB and EOF bare news of another hit to Atlanta's starting rotation: Max Fried is on the 10-day IL because of back issues (:30). The duo discuss managing back pain, and Eric details his run ins with debilitating back aches during his playing days. Alex Anthopoulos updated the press on Mike Foltynewicz's progression as well as Cole Hamels' timeline to return in lieu of Fried's injury (11:15). Could Hamels make his Braves debut soon? Why has Snitker elected to make less-than-appealing pitching decisions? Ronald Acuna Jr., Dansby Swanson, Adam Duvall and, of course, Freddie Freeman were firing on all cylinders offensively last week, plus Freeman finally hit a grand slam (20:30)! Predictably, Ian Anderson experience his first rough go in the majors, but David and Eric are confident in his resiliency (28:15). As pitching setbacks continue to nag the Braves, who among the few healthy hurlers needs to step up (37:30)?
