Description
DOB and EOF powwow about the non-news news involving the four Braves who have tested positive for Covid-19 (6:45). Staying on the topic of player health, the guys address Braves who are expected to be on the opening-day roster whose status is up in the air, namely Cole Hamels, who's struggling with triceps tendinitis (12:30). Although Hamels' opening day standing is tentative, Atlanta is well equipped with solid pitching depth (24:00). Who could Atlanta turn to as a potential fifth starter bearing in mind Hamels' condition and King Felix opting out? David and Eric run through the list of young hurlers that will participate in an upcoming scrimmage, and deliberate who could contribute in this shortened season (32:15). Could Atlanta utilize an opener (37:30)? Ender Inciarte has a track record of sluggish early season offensive production, so how might Atlanta approach that slow-start morass (38:30)? What does Ender, himself, think of his cold spells (48:00), and could Cristian Pache be leaned on in this situation (57:30)?
