You could argue that Dom Smith, Mauricio Dubón, Mike Yastrzemski and Jorge Mateo are collectively in the top two or three reasons why the Braves have been so good in 2026.

Pretty cool to see how excited Fuentes was after the game. At 20 yrs. and 355 days, he's the youngest MLB pitcher to record a save since Andres Munoz (20y 225d) for SD on 8/29/2019/. He's the youngest Braves to record a save since Mike McQueen (20y, 346d) on 8/11/1971

Weiss said he decided before today’s game that Suarez wouldn’t pitch today. The veteran reliever went back-to-back on Tuesday/Wednesday and threw again Friday. With Monday’s offday, the Braves wanted to ensure he got a few consecutive days leading into the trip

Michael Harris II has 3:2 RBIs-to-pitches seen ratio over the past two days. His pinch-hit bases-clearing double gives the Braves a lead and provides indication his back is fine.

Olson occasionally takes grounders at short before games. His athleticism and arm are incredible.
Didn’t know Matt Olson had a cannon like that.
Knew he played a little OF but dang.

Dominic Smith might not win a ballot battle against Shohei Ohtani. But that doesn't mean, he won't go from non-roster invitee to All-Star
