If the Braves could only have players born closer to Truist Park than any other stadium…

  1. Surprised Strider isn’t on this, he’s from my hometown of Knoxville. Less than 3 hours from the stadium.

  2. I also analyzed which team could field a full starting 10 (9 positions plus DH) in the smallest geographic area surrounding the stadium, and the Braves had the smallest. They can almost field a complete team just from active players born in Atlanta proper:

  3. Pretty good lineup. I guess if the Marlins constructed a lineup this way they’d get every player from the Caribbean.

  4. Changes I’d make:
    Add Strider to the rotation, move Buxton to DH, MH2 to CF. Start Dansby at 2B, move Mookie to right. Probably start Marsh in LF, but he and Meadows are similar.

  5. If Brandon Marsh were on our team, I’d wait until he retired or got traded and then start watching them again.

  6. Damn I was gonna say Will Smith is from Newnan, but just looked it up and his WAR was negative this year ☹️
