Braves bash Brewers with the trade deadline looming

In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Braves Report podcast, beat reporter Justin Toscano and co-host Jay Black breakdown how the Braves pulled off a sweep of the Brewers. Justin will also explain why it seems so easy for the Braves and their sluggers to bounce back from a slump. We will also discuss why Atlanta traded for infielder Nicky Lopez, what else it might do at the deadline and why Justin says it will be hard to land a significant pitcher.   Follow the Braves Report podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss an episode.
