ATLANTA -- They might need to get a bigger plane to transport the franchise-record eight Braves who will travel to Seattle for next week’s All-Star Game.
Braves manager Brian Snitker had the privilege on Sunday to tell first baseman Matt Olson, second baseman Ozzie Albies, third baseman Austin Riley, and
Wild that we have our entire infield going to the all-star game. Did not expect that, but I guess that is what happens when you are the 1st place team. Just wish one of our guys was in the HRD.
Who do you want to see in the derby from your squad?
Acuña and Olson
We have a few that you could make a good argument for. Looking at the MLB home run leaders:
Matt Olson (2nd-28)
Ronald Acuña (8th-21)
Ozzie Albies (10th-20)
Marcel Ozuna (17th-17)
I feel a lot of the time like it messes up the players swings when the are in the derby. So I’m ok with it
That completely depends player to player
