Walt Weiss Ends A Baseball Brawl

from Sports Takes with Nate Skates · host Nathan

A tense stare-down turns into a full-on MLB brawl, and the most unforgettable part is who shuts it down: Braves manager Walt Weiss, 62 years old, stepping in like a linebacker to stop Jorge Soler and keep the situation from getting uglier. I break down what led to Reynaldo Lopez vs Soler, why the aftermath matters, and what the suspensions actually mean going forward.Then I zoom out to the Atlanta Braves’ first 13 games and why I feel better than I expected. Even with major pitching injuries, Atlanta is playing winning baseball and the numbers are eye-opening: a league-leading team ERA, shutouts piling up, and starters and bullpen arms delivering real consistency. I also dig into the offense, including why the lineup is still producing even with some stars not fully clicking, and how surprise contributors like Dominic Smith and Mauricio Dubón change the early story.From there, we get practical with fantasy baseball, focusing on waiver wire targets in ESPN leagues for both pitching and hitting, plus a few traps to avoid when a hot streak fades. I wrap with quick takes on Georgia Bulldogs baseball surging up the polls and Georgia basketball getting hit hard by the transfer portal, then I ask for help on a very specific categories-league problem: who should we be targeting for holds?Subscribe for more Braves talk, share this with a friend who lives on the waiver wire, and leave a review if you want more weekly breakdowns and Georgia sports updates.
