The lineups are out and I think we all figured that this was going to be a very interesting one — especially when you consider what’s been going on with the Atlanta Braves as of late. They’ve revealed their lineup for tonight’s game so it’s time to take a look at it, shall we?
Here’s the lineup for the Braves:
They signed Gio Urshela today, they added him to the roster today and they’re putting him in the lineup today. If all goes well, this is how the lineup should look going forward (give or take a few shifts up and down the order and of course with Jorge Soler involved). They’ll probably have a tough time dealing with Zack Wheeler tonight but hey, hopefully Reynaldo López can keep up with him and keep things interesting tonight.
Here’s Philadelphia’s lineup:

All the usual heavy hitters are in the lineup for this one — that includes Bryce Harper, who is back in the lineup after sitting on Sunday. He’s been slumping since the break, as he’s currently sporting a .216/.269/.405 slash line with a .285 wOBA and 81 wRC+ since returning to action from the break. With that being said, we all know that Harper absolutely relishes these games against the Braves so Atlanta will still have to take his at-bats deathly serious tonight.
Tonight’s game starts at 7:20 P.M. E.T. and can be seen on Bally Sports South and TBS if you live outside of Atlanta’s market. The game can be listened to on 680 The Fan/93.7 FM as well.
