The Braves are rolling out their standard lineup Saturday night with Drake Baldwin continuing to get everyday at-bats now that Sean Murphy is out for the season.
Ronald Acuña Jr seems to have cemented his spot back in the middle of the order after batting as low as seventh a few games ago. Also notable Marcell Ozuna has dropped all the way down to eighth for Brian Snitker’s squad as it’s become increasingly clear he’s just not the same offensive force from the last few years.
Houston changes things from last night with SS Jeremey Peña leading off, with Yordan Alvarez batting second, 3B Carlos Correa hitting third and 2B Jose Altuve hitting clean-up. Catcher Victor Caratini sits tonight with primary catcher Yanier Diaz getting the mask and gear this evening.
