The Braves are down another outfielder as Eddie Rosario will miss 8-12 weeks following eye surgery to correct blurriness and swelling in his right eye. All eyes are on Ronald Acuna Jr and all mouths are asking when he will be making his return to the big league team. In the meantime, the Braves prepare to welcome Seiya Suzuki and the Chicago Cubs to town as they look to win their first series of the season.

Well, this is not the way I wanted to drop another 643 podcast, but we need to grieve together. Yesterday was a colossal failure on all ends. Let's get it out together, cathart a bit, and get prepped for 2 must win games. Luckily for us, Strider/Fried is a hell of a combo when you have to win 2 in a row.

The Braves dropped game 1 to the Angels, but we're not going to focus on that because today is the trade deadline! It's impossible to figure out what AA has in store, but that doesn't mean I don't have some ideas. We'll discuss those on today's episode of 643.

After dropping a series to the hapless White Sox, I'll tell you why i'm not worried and why the Braves are still in absolute control of the 2023 season - no matter what they do at the deadline.

Stop me if you've heard this before: Spencer Strider strikes out 10, the Braves offense comes through, and the Braves win. Rinse and Repeat. But last night was a little more impressive on the backdrop of that wild series in Cincinnati. After a top notch matchup last night, go ahead and prepare yourselves for a similar quality matchup tonight

The boys are boppin and the Braves are crushing everyone. Stop me if you've heard this before, but June is the month of the Braves. With everything going so well, it's pretty much impossible to pick just 1 or 2 guys to really give kudos too, but we'll give it a shot

The Braves salvage a game against the Dodgers behind yet another outstanding start from Bryce Elder, something that has become an expectation at this point. The expectation around baseball is that Elder will eventually get El Kabonged by the regression monster, but I'm not so sure that's the case. Not only do I think what Elder is doing is sustainable, but I also think the very idea that his results are surprising says more about us as fans than it does about Bryce. I'll do my best to explain my position today.

The Braves drop game 1 to the Dodgers as Freddie Freeman had a very familiar performance, this time for the bad guys. Unfortunately, that wasn't the only controversy from last night and I find myself forced to confront my fellow Braves fans. Good thing it's Strider day.

The Braves steal a victory in Texas last night and a series win for the first time in 20 years. Ronald Acuna continues doing MVP things, and the Braves head back home on much better footing that they did leaving Toronto. Get ready for some fun, young matchups as Seattle comes to town.

After the worst series of the season in Toronto, the Braves came to play in Texas, putting on a power display that serves as a good reminder of what this team can do. Charlie Morton was incredible, and the Braves now turn to Jared Shuster in game 2 as they look to seal a series victory

Some very somber news from the Braves today as Max Fried was placed on the IL for a forearm strain and the NL's frontrunner is now scrambling to figure out how to fill 2 holes in the rotation. The bright side is the offense now gets Travid d'Arnaud back, which should be a nice addition, but there's no sugar coating it: Today is not a great day
