Make no mistake....yesterday was one of those demoralizing days during a season that takes the wind out of everyone’s sails that every team goes through. Sometimes it is an injury to a key player, sometimes it is just a bad loss where nothing goes right. In yesterday’s case, it was both as the Braves got beat up by the Mets in the series finale AND they lost Mike Soroka for the season with a torn Achilles’ tendon.
The task before Max Fried now is to get the Braves back to playing winning baseball and the Braves don’t currently have anyone else on their staff that is more up to that task.
