The episode also delves into the corner outfield situation, evaluating players like Jarred Kelenic, Bryan de La Cruz, and the potential call-up of Alex Verdugo. Furthermore, Crosby assesses the seemingly-resolved shortstop battle between Nick Allen and Orlando Arcia, and suggests improvements the Braves could implement, such as mandatory eye exams for all players.
