Braves MiLB Preview: Tough week ahead as top pitching prospects try to bounce back

Braves minor league affiliates had a chance last week to make some waves as they were matched up against some of the worst teams in their leagues. Unfortunately, that is not how it worked out and now they are going to be trying to make up some ground against (in most cases anyways) better competitions.

Gwinnett Stripers (27-27)

Last week: 3-3

Next week: at Jacksonville, June 7-12

Gwinnett has been consistently medium all season and that trend did not change last week as they went 3-3 against Louisville. Inconsistency on both sides of the ball with a rough inning from Bryce Elder and a bullpen game gone awry being the biggest culprits on the pitching side.
