NL East Race is Over on May 15

Braves are calling up Austin Riley from Gwinnett today. Should start tonight. He has only hit 13 homers in his past 18 games.

Good opportunity to get a win tonight. Feels like a big game.

Re: NL East Race is Over on May 15

A little Milb.com research tells me he's a south Memfrica kid. 

Looks like he can swing it a bit.

Hope he gets traded to a real baseball town.

His time in Memphis should have him well-prepared for life in the real baseball town of St. Louis, if it comes to that.

Unfortunately there are many areas of St. Louis that are less than desirable.

Riley's eating StL's lunch again tonight. Ground rules double and a single already.

That last pitch LOL. Was Hicks trying to stop the clock?

I'm starting to build a dislike for him.

His audition better go good so he can get out of hotlanta soon.

I will always use the Jason Heyward rule before blessing a player as the next best thing. I remember watching his first AB homer like 8 or 9 years ago, whenever it was....but he never lived up to the hype. The Braves look like the team of the future provided they find two solid arms for their rotation in the near future.

I can't disagree which is disturbing.

The rightful place for the Braves and the Cubs is in the cellar.

The world is in a state of disarray.

I had no idea how badly he'd tailed off. OPS of .694 for his 4 years as a Cub, with 32 homers- yikes!
