Are the Bravos sponsored by Swiffer? Because they got the sweep! *rim shot* Before plunging into Braves-Nationals waters, DOB and EOF react to the Angles releasing Albert Pujols. What's next for the 41-year-old future Hall of Famer? Where does he rank among Eric's Pantheon of hitters? And the guys describe watching Pujols develop and play through the league. Well, William Contreras can hit...the 23-year-old catcher's first start with Travis d'Arnaud on the IL inspired optimism in Braves fans. Do early returns from Jeff Mathis, Contreras and Alex Jackson spark confidence in the guys? The guys applaud Drew Smyly for his best outing so far this season. The duo discuss Fransisco Lindor, a target for repeated aspersions in New York for his frigid hitting, and the media/social media-players dynamic. Marcell Ozuna had a decorated series, which is, obviously, a boon to Atlanta. What's with Freddie's funk? Huascar Ynoa can RAKE.
