However, today was an all too familiar sight. The need for the Braves to add to the rotation remains clear as day, And with the additional money in place after Jurickson Profar\u2019s suspension, the lack of urgency to strengthen the staff as the season draws closer is odd. Hopefully, at some point this week, common sense will prevail and a move will be made to strengthen the staff.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Braves News<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Mauricio Dubon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/braves\/news\/mauricio-dubon-talks-with-chipper-jones-gets-4-straight-hits-with-braves\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:was elated to talk with Chipper Jones;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">was elated to talk with Chipper Jones<\/a> and responded with some great production at the plate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">A lot of fun moments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.batterypower.com\/atlanta-braves-discussion\/127077\/wbc-wrap-up-walkoffs-and-comebacks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:in the WBC this weekend.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">in the WBC this weekend. <\/a><\/p>\n<p>MLB News<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Zach Littell <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/nationals\/news\/zack-littell-nationals-contract\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:signed a one year deal with the Nationals.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">signed a one year deal with the Nationals.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Sunday, the Braves lost to the Rays 9-8 in a game that was no too enjoyable if&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":614435,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2394],"tags":[191,46,4166,5,192,4720,1710,813,7582,3617,4,297,5095],"class_list":["post-614434","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-atlanta-braves","tag-atlanta","tag-atlanta-braves","tag-atlantabraves","tag-baseball","tag-braves","tag-bryce-elder","tag-joey-wentz","tag-jurickson-profar","tag-littell","tag-mauricio-dubon","tag-mlb","tag-rays","tag-the-braves"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116197680300271598","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/614434","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=614434"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/614434\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/614435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=614434"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=614434"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=614434"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
