Welcome to Braves Today with host Lindsay Crosby, where we discuss the unfortunate injury to Braves shortstop, Ha-Seong Kim, who is likely out until the All-Star break due to a torn tendon in his finger. We break down the immediate impacts on the roster, strategize potential replacements, and explore both trade and free agency options. Braves' current shortstop Mauricio Dubón will be required to step up into a starting role, but the team's bench situation raises concerns. Can free agents like Isaiah Kiner-Falefa or Jorge Mateo fill the gap? Might the Braves consider trades for players like Jeremy Peña, Ezequiel Tovar, or Jordan Lawlar? Tune in as we navigate this challenging period for the Braves' roster and explore how the team can still aim for success in the 2026 season.
