A new week means a new set of series to start for the Braves minor league affiliates, with most of them set to return home this week.
Gwinnett Stripers vs Memphis Redbirds – 7:05 PM ET
Pitching Probables
GWI: TBD
MEM: TBD
The Atlanta Braves Triple-A team moves home to play Memphis after a tough performance on Sunday where the offense didn’t get going and they were forced into a bullpen game by the starter lasting just one third of an inning.
Columbus Clingstones vs Knoxville Smokies – 7:05 PM ET
Pitching Probables
COL: TBD
KNO: TBD
Columbus is another team who had a tough going offensively on Sunday in their last time out, though David McCabe hit a pair of homers in the loss. We will watch this week to see if McCabe can start to build off that a little, as the power is certainly in there for him to tap into.
Rome Emperors vs Greensboro Grasshoppers – 7:00 PM ET
Pitching Probables
ROM: TBD
GRN: TBD
Rome’s off day yesterday came at a good time for them as Sunday’s loss saw fairly limited offense plus three errors. They return home for a series with Greensboro today to give us another chance to watch Ambioris Tavarez and Patrick Clohisy, plus the hot Will Verdung.
Augusta GreenJackets at Charleston Riverdogs – 7:05 PM ET
Pitching Probables
CHA: TBD
AUG: TBD
Augusta starts a new series after an off day following a poor offensive performance on Sunday. This should hopefully give the exciting Augusta lineup a chance to get things going again to start the new week. Of note Nick Montgomery snapped a recent tough stretch with a homer in Sunday’s loss, and hopefully he can gain some confidence from that.
FCL Braves at FCL Red Sox – 12:00 PM ET
Pitching Probables
BRA: TBD
SOX: TBD
An 8-2 loss on Monday against the Twins started the week for the FCL Braves. They managed just two hits despite it being the start of a rehab assignment for Nacho Alvarez and having Luke Waddell in town for his continued rehab assignment. Those two, Jose Perdomo, and Juan Mateo are some of the players to watch tomorrow.
DSL Braves vs DSL Cubs Red – 11:00 AM ET
Pitching Probables
CUB: TBD
BRA: TBD
Yesterday was a 10-4 loss to a Dodgers team that saw Juan Espinal homer and double, Diego Tornes double, and Elias Reyno reach base three times with a double. Some of the other guys to watch on this roster in the lineup include Arlenn Manzanillo, Yassel Garcia, Angel Carmona, and Manuel Campos
