GOOD NEWS: David Fletcher Checks Into Braves Lineup for Series Opener versus Marlins Because Of…

The Atlanta Braves get to see a familiar foe again.

Just a week and a half after taking two out of three in their house, the Braves are welcoming the Miami Marlins to Truist Park for another three-game set. (Yet the Braves haven’t played the Washington Nationals once this season – make it make sense, MLB.)
Lineups for the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins on Monday, April 22nd
Here’s how Atlanta will line up for the contest:
RF Ronald Acuña Jr
SS Orlando Arcia
3B Austin Riley
1B Matt Olson
DH Marcell Ozuna
C Travis d’Arnaud
LF Adam Duvall
CF Michael Harris II
2B David Fletcher
Elder’s making his first MLB start of the 2024 season, but it’s against a familiar foe in Miami – he’s started seven games against the Marlins in the last two seasons, going 1-2 with a 3.38 ERA. One of his best starts of the 2023 season came against Miami, actually – seven innings of scoreless baseball with three hits and no walks, striking out six in a 6-0 Braves victory on May 2nd. One of Miami’s best hitters in 2024, Bryan De La Cruz, is the one to watch here, as he’s 4-8 with a homer and four RBIs off of Elder.
