ATLANTA (AP) — As he watched hitter after hitter reach base for Milwaukee http://www.piratesfanproshop.com/authentic-willie-stargell-jersey , Brian Snitker felt like his Braves were always behind.Way behind.Instead, Atlanta stayed close despite being outhit 19-9 and took advantage of Ozzie Albies’ tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning to beat the Brewers 8-7 on Sunday.“I’m so proud of the way the guys fought today,” said Snitker, the Braves’ manager. “At one point of the game I felt like we were about eight runs down. There’s a lot of grit in these guys, a lot of fight. They’re tough.”Albies’ homer was one of three hit by Atlanta. Ronald Acuna Jr. and Dansby Swanson added two-run shots for the Braves, who took two of three in a matchup of playoff contenders.The Brewers had two or more hits in each of the first seven innings.“It was tough when they keep getting hits but we have to keep fighting through it and that’s what we did today,” Albies said. “We never give up.”Jesus Aguilar drove in four runs with three hits, including a three-run homer , for Milwaukee. The Brewers left 13 runners on base to only four for the Braves.“It was a crazy game,” Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. “When you strand 13, you always think you’ve left runs out there.”The Brewers’ inability to deliver with runners on base reached a peak in the seventh. Facing Jonny Venters (2-1), Ryan Braun hit into a bases-loaded double play to end the inning.Albies gave Atlanta the lead by lining his 21st homer over the left-field wall on a slider from Dan Jennings (4-4) to lead off the seventh.Milwaukee also left the bases loaded in the fourth.A.J. Minter pitched the ninth for his 10th save in 11 chances. Eric Kratz hit a one-out single before Lorenzo Cain, who had four hits, flied out. After Kratz moved to second on a wild pitch, Minter struck out Christian Yelich to end the game.After allowing only one earned run in three straight starts, Sean Newcomb lasted only four innings, giving up five runs on 12 hits and two walks. The left-hander was tagged for a combined 10 runs on 17 hits in 7 2/3 innings in two starts against the Brewers this season.Brewers starter Chase Anderson also was pulled after four innings, giving up four runs on five hits and two walks.TRAINER’S ROOMBrewers: RHP Kyle Davies (right shoulder) will join the Brewers in Chicago, but will make at least one more minor league rehab start after permitting four runs in five innings for Double-A Biloxi at Tennessee on Saturday. … RHP Taylor Williams (right elbow) had what Counsell called a “positive” bullpen session and could come off the 10-day DL without a minor league rehab. … C Manny Pina left the game one inning after being hit by Freddie Freeman’s foul tip in the fifth.Braves: LHP Sam Freeman (left shoulder inflammation) reported to Class A Rome. Freeman had a 5.45 ERA in 49 games when he was placed on the 10-day DL on July 30.CHASING A RARE HITAnderson, who took a .088 batting average into the game, enjoyed a rare hitting highlight. He slapped a 0-2 pitch from Newcomb up the middle for a two-run single in the second. He also drove in two runs against the Cubs on Sept. 9, 2017.HOT AND HUMIDThe temperature for the first pitch was 86, and each starter struggled with humid conditions. Snitker noticed Newcomb frequently grabbing handfuls of dirt on the mound. Anderson had similar problems.“I couldn’t get my hand dry the first couple of innings,” Anderson said. “I couldn’t figure that out.”UP NEXTBrewers: Following an off day on Monday, RHP Jhoulys Chacin (11-4, 3.91) will start when Milwaukee opens a two-game series at the Cubs on Tuesday. Chacin struck out while pinch-hitting for Anderson in the fifth.Braves: RHP Touki Toussaint is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett to make his major league debut in the first game of Monday’s split doubleheader against Miami. Toussaint Barry Bonds Jersey , 22, joins Mike Soroka and Kolby Allard as first-time starters for Atlanta this season. RHP Mike Foltynewicz will start the night game. Right-Handed RelieversCraig Kimbrelis the active saves leader (333) and one of the most overpowering pitchers in baseball. He should follow in the footsteps of Aroldis Chapman, Kenley Jansen and Wade Davis as the latest reliever to hit the jackpot.Adam Ottavino(75 G, 34 HLD, 2.43 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 13.0 K/9) had an excellent season with the Colorado Rockies and could close somewhere. Otherwise, he'll be paid handsomely to fill a setup role on a contender.Others with closing experience includeCody Allen,Kelvin Herrera,David Robertson,Jeurys Familia,Joakim Soria,Greg Hollandand Sergio Romo,and they could all land multiyear deals.SwingmanJesse Chavezand setup relieversShawn Kelley,Brad Brach,Ryan Madson,Joe Kelly, Tyler Clippard, Adam WarrenandBud Norrisare among the other righties who look like safe bets for MLB deals.Left-Handed RelieversDown seasons could wind up costingAndrew MillerandZach Brittondecent chunks of change.Miller, 33, made three separate trips to the disabled list in 2018 with injuries to his right knee, left hamstring and left shoulder. He managed just 37 appearances, posting a 4.24 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 11.9 K/9 along the way.By comparison, he had a 1.72 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 14.5 K/5 over the previous four years.Britton http://www.piratesfanproshop.com/authentic-roberto-clemente-jersey , 30, didn't make his season debut until June 12 after he suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon during the offseason. After shaking off some initial rust, he pitched well down the stretch after getting traded from the Orioles to the Yankees.Justin Wilson,Jorge De La Rosa,Jake DiekmanandTony Sippare all strong candidates for MLB deals.Other available lefty relievers includeJerry Blevins,Zach Duke,Hector Santiago,Aaron LoupandTyler Lyons.Potential Sellers to Watch4 of 5Paul GoldschmidtNorm Hall/Getty ImagesArizona DiamondbacksThe D-backs could be in full fire-sale mode before the offseason is over.Bob Nightengale ofUSA Todayreported they're expected to "strip down the team and rebuild."Slugger Paul Goldschmidt would net a huge haul鈥攅ven a year removed from free agency. Veteran ace Zack Greinke is also an attractive trade chip, provided the team absorbs some of his salary.Meanwhile, David Peralta, Robbie Ray, Jake Lamb, Taijuan Walker, Steven Souza Jr. and Andrew Chafin are all free agents after the 2020 season, and flipping them now could be the best way to maximize their value.Detroit TigersSluggerNicholas Castellanoscan flat-out rake.The 26-year-old posted a 130 OPS+with 46 doubles and 23 home runs, but he's a liability defensively. He logged brutal metrics (-19 DRS, -12.3 UZR/150) in his first season as an everyday right fielder. A year removed from free agency, he's a prime candidate to be flipped.Controllable startersMichael FulmerandMatthew Boydwould generate interest if they're made available.CloserShane Greene(32/38 SV) and swingmanBlaine Hardy(30 G, 13 GS, 3.56 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, 86.0 IP) could also be trade candidates. Kansas City RoyalsThe Royals hold one of the most attractive trade chips on the market in second basemanWhit Merrifield.The 29-year-old hit .304/.367/.438 and led the majors in hits (192) and steals (45) on his way to a 5.5 WAR campaign, and he's under team control through the 2022 season.StartersDanny DuffyandIan Kennedycould also be moved if the team is willing to eat salary.Miami MarlinsAll signs indicate catcherJ.T. Realmuto will be thecenterpiece of a blockbuster deal this winter.The 27-year-old led all catchers with 4.3 WARand hit .277/.340/.484 with 30 doubles, 21 home runs and 74 RBI while throwing out 38 percent of base stealers.Realmuto has no interest in signing an extension with the Marlins, according to agent Jeff Berry (via SiriusXM), and with two years of control left Kent Tekulve Jersey , the Marlins should sell high.StarterDan Straily, relieversDrew SteckenriderandAdam Conleyand second basemanStarlin Castroare also prime candidates to be moved.Other Potential Trade Candidates:C Austin Hedges (SD), C Russell Martin (TOR), 1B Jose Abreu (CWS), 1B Justin Smoak (TOR), 2B Rougned Odor (TEX), 2B Joe Panik (SF), OF Billy Hamilton (CIN), OF Mallex Smith (TB), SP Dylan Bundy (BAL), SP Alex Cobb (BAL), SP Mike Minor (TEX), SP Zack Wheeler (NYM), RP Sam Dyson (SF), RP Mychal Givens (BAL), RP Jared Hughes (CIN), RP Raisel Iglesias (CIN), RP Jose Leclerc (TEX), RP Will Smith (SF), RP Craig Stammen (SD), RP Tony Watson (SF), RP Kirby Yates (SD)Free-Agent Rankings and Predictions5 of 5Dustin Bradford/Getty ImagesBelow is my ranking of this year's top 30 free agents and where they'll sign.
