UP NEXT: Braves: LHP Sean Newcomb (1-1, 3.74) is Atlanta's scheduled starter in Thursday's finale of the four-game series. Reds: Hard-luck RHP Homer Bailey (0-3, 3.68), whose ERA is the best of Cincinnati's starters, is due to start the final game of Cincinnati's brief four-game homestand.

Roster news When the Braves designated Peter Bourjos for assignment to create a roster spot for Acuna on Wednesday, they were hopeful the outfielder would go unclaimed on the waiver wire and eventually accept an assignment to Gwinnett.
There's less certainty regarding outfielder Lane Adams and relievers Rex Brothers and Josh Ravin, who all recently passed through waivers after being designated for assignment. They were each outrighted to Gwinnett on Wednesday. But because they had been previously outrighted, they have the right to reject an assignment to Gwinnett and enter free agency.

Reds lineup
CF Hamilton SS Peraza 1B Votto LF Duvall 3B Suarez C Mesoraco RF Schebler 2B Blandino P Bailey
Not excited to see Suarez back - hopefully he's rusty.
And hopefully "Homer" lives up to his name

After coming back and actually winning last night, I'm looking for a lot of runs today. By the Braves, of course.

Suzuki escapes disaster, ball hits bat, bounds toward pitcher--who throws tom first for the out Inning ends
Weird play
