Reynaldo Starling López Kely (born January 4, 1994) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the Atlanta Braves of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut with the Washington Nationals in 2016, and has also played for the Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Angels, and Cleveland Guardians.

Denny Hamlin had some interesting things to say about World Wide Technology Raceway losing its internet connection on Sunday. On the Actions Detrimental podcast, Hamlin reacted to Gateway losing internet connection for the second year in a row. “I don’t know how long it was out this time,” Hamlin said after mentioning the internet was out for an hour last year. ” Last year, Chris [Gabehart] told me, ‘Hey we’re running blind in here.’ …It was just not good. “It certainly affects the teams, but I don’t know what they got to do to fix it for sure. But I think the track had power…

Zach Olson is the brother of Matt Olson. Zach was a baseball player too, and pitched for the Harvard Crimson. The Milwaukee Brewers are not usually known for making big splashes in free agency. This offseason’s signing of first baseman Rhys Hoskins was possible because he had missed the entire 2023 season with a torn ACL. Even so, it cost Milwaukee $17 million annually in order to get him. Even then, the second year of his deal is a player option, so there is no guarantee he will be with the Brewers beyond this season. Matthew Kent Olson (born March 29, 1994) is an American professional baseball first…

They were encouraged in game one as the offense seemed to wake up behind a historic start from Max Fried. However, Sean Murphy was hit in the elbow by a pitch late in that game and it ballooned immediately. Luckily, the swelling went down overnight and appeared to…

Ronald Acuna Jr., Matt Olson, Ozzie Albies, Orlando Arcia, Austin Riley, Sean Murphy, Spencer Strider, and Bryce Elder earned bids. If you’re counting, the entire Atlanta infield made it. This season, there might not be as many familiar faces at Globe Life Field. Acuna and Strider are lost for the season while Olson and Riley will need to bounce back in a big way over the next month. Albies, Murphy, Arcia, and Elder are also unlikely to make it again. That doesn’t mean there aren’t Braves deserving of the honor. Max Fried and Chris Sale are off to impressive starts and will be in the conversation for the Cy Young if they continue at…
