Grant McAuley and Cory McCartney are back to get you ready for the biggest series of the year for the Atlanta Braves. After shaving nine games off the lead and moving to 1.5 GB in the NL East, Atlanta hosts the first place New York Mets for a three-game series this week.
That clash headlines the show, but we'll recap the week that was for the Braves, who went 6-1 in the first seven games of their homestand. We'll discuss Spencer Strider's amazing season, some key returns from injury, Atlanta's five All-Stars, a couple of notable snubs, and you'll hear Grant McAuley's chat with first-time All-Star Travis d'Arnaud.
This week's "3-Up, 3-Down" takes a look at the upstart Orioles, a scary collision in San Diego, and delves into Chris Sale's ongoing anger management issues. That and much more from around the big leagues.
