After an injury filled Thursday doubleheader, the Braves shake up the roster ahead of their home series with the Red Sox

Another loss, another reason for Atlanta to want Snit gone — but his history with the franchise makes that a fraught proposition.

Ronald Acuña Jr. has been back for a week and the pitching staff has posted the National League’s third-best ERA this month. But neither of these encouraging developments have helped the Braves, who have lost seven of their past nine games to fall to 12-14 in May.

Considered an early World Series favorite, the Braves have a roster consisting of players failing to live up to expectations.

The Philadelphia Phillies won two of three against the Atlanta Braves to strengthen their grip on the NL East. After a turbulent few weeks to open the season, Philly has settled into a nice groove. Their division rivals, meanwhile, continue to stall. The Phillies now lead the Mets by 2.0 games and the Braves by 9.5 games.
