The Braves offense failed to reach its usual production over the weekend, following a win on Friday. Saturday ended in a shutout, and on Sunday the Braves scored their first run in the ninth inning during a rainy 2-1 loss to the Nationals. The series marked only the Braves second series loss of the season, but it signaled a difficult offensive stretch. Spencer Schwellenbach reported positive progress in injury recovery and is throwing. Cade Kuehler continued to impress in the minor leagues. Austin Riley remained a focus as he worked to regain his typical offensive level. The Braves stayed No. 1 in the latest MLB.com power rankings. The Marlins defeated the Mets on a clutch grand slam. Dylan Cease and Vlad Guerrero Jr. left the Blue Jays game, with early reports encouraging.
"The Braves offense just could not find its usual groove over the weekend. After an exciting win on Friday. the Braves were shut out Saturday and did not score a run till the ninth on a rainy 2-1 Sunday loss to the Nationals. It was only the Braves second series loss of the season, but is the latest sign that the Braves offense as whole is going through a bit of a tough stretch. Hopefully, Monday's off-day will be a nice reset before the week ahead."
"Spencer Schwellenbach has received good news in his injury recover, feels good, and is throwing. Cade Kuehler continues to impress down on the farm. Mark Bowman writes on Austin Riley continuing to try and find his usual level of offense. The Braves remain number 1 in the latest mlb.com power rankings."
"The Marlins beat the Mets thanks to a clutch Grand Slam. Both Dylan Cease and Vlad Guerrero Jr. left the Blue Jays game on Sunday, though initial reports are a bit encouraging."
