Player Notes

August 23, 2008
Manny Acosta has been activated from the 15-day DL following his bout with a strained right hamstring, according to the AP. The Braves optioned Matt DeSalvo to Triple-A Richmond to make room on the roster.

Our View:He will be a welcome addition back to Atlanta, but only holds fantasy value in deeper NL-only leagues that use middle men.

August 15, 2008
Manny Acosta threw his second bullpen session Thursday, and if his strained right hamstring responds favorably he could be sent out on a minor-league rehab assignment next week, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Our View:He has a shot to return to the Braves' bullpen in early September. He would be a welcome addition back to Atlanta, but only holds fantasy value in deeper NL-only leagues that use middle men.

July 6, 2008
Manny Acosta has been placed on the disabled list with a strained hamstring, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Our View:Acosta had been one of few relievers pitching well for the Braves lately. Hopefully he can recover quickly.

July 6, 2008
Manny Acosta was effective from the 14th thru the 16th innings on Sunday. He allowed no runs, two hits and no walks. However, he left the game with a strained hamstring.

Our View:A bad way to end a good night. No word on how long Acosta expects to be out.

June 12, 2008
Blaine Boyer might have blown the save in the ninth inning, but it was Manny Acosta who picked up the loss in the 11th inning on Thursday. This was the Braves 21st straight loss in a one run game on the road, tied for the longest streak in major league history, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:Atrocious. The Braves might want to look up Gene Garber and see if he still has any bullets in his arm. Acosta is now 3-5 and in his last seven appearances he has two blown saves and four loses, which begs the question of why Bobby Cox keeps sending him out there?
