⚾️ Braves Central | Braves Sweep Rockies, Acuña Injury Update, Strider in Denver & Seattle Series

 Preview Welcome to Braves Central with Barrett Salih, hosted on 680 The Fan / Braves Radio Network.

The Braves are off to a historic start, sitting at 25–10, the best 35-game start since 1892 — but there’s plenty to break down from a busy week in Colorado and beyond.

🔥 What We Cover:
Braves sweep the Rockies & record-setting start to the season
Ronald Acuña Jr. placed on the IL with a grade 1 hamstring strain 
How the Braves plan to manage Acuña’s return and long-term health
Depth stepping up: Dubón, Eli White, and roster versatility 
Spencer Strider’s struggles in Denver and the impact of altitude 
Why “Coors Field effects” matter more than people think 
Seattle Mariners series preview: Logan Gilbert, pitching matchups & keys to the series 
Braves mentality shift: why this team believes it’s never out of a game 
Leadership, clubhouse culture, and why this start feels different 

Plus, insight on why this Braves team is banking wins early — and what it means for the stretch run.
