Atlanta Braves: Offense continues to fight despite pitching woes

If you were questioning the Atlanta Braves for not improving their rotation AND/or bullpen, you’re probably doubling down now after two games into the season. Yes, it’s two games…but both games can be linked to the struggling of the pitching, especially the relievers.

The Braves started out really promising with a lead-off triple from Ender Inciarte and went on to score on a Freddie Freeman single. Then, it got even better when Dansby Swanson —he’s looking good y’all— launched one deep for a two-run homer in the second inning. It’s his first hit of the season but as of late including spring training.
