It’s pre-off day, getaway day action in Los Angeles today, as the Braves take on the Dodgers. Having snapped L.A.’s seven-game winning streak, the Braves can get back to .500 and set their sights on the top of the division (rather than just a breakeven record) with a victory behind Charlie Morton.
With Austin Riley off doing new dad things, Orlando Arcia starts at third, while Adam Duvall slides up into the cleanup spot.
Alex Dickerson has apparently been banished into the rolling hills of “you underperformed xwOBA for too long”-land, as Guillermo Heredia starts in right field even with Arcia’s shift to third, given that Marcell Ozuna remains the DH.
