Seeing Atlanta’s pitchers back on the mound has put a smile on my face the entire day. We got our first look at Charlie Morton in Braves gear:

Ian Anderson also looked as sharp as ever in his Braves’ blue:

But there wasn’t a better sight to see than Mike Soroka. Even though we didn’t actually get any video footage from his side session today, Brian Snitker discussed how amazed he was with his progress and left the door open for him to be ready by Opening Day.

Soroka’s progression from his torn Achilles is what is important, but if you thought his recent injury would make him more fond of the universal DH, you couldn’t be further off the mark.
Mike Soroka's thoughts on adopting the universal DH: "No, I want to hit."

Pitchers are athletes too! And Mike Soroka is a prime example of that. Also… peep the flow. I can’t wait to see that on the mound in April (hopefully).
