Sale bringing the pain

Quite tonight

[jsebe10]

Fletcher hits like a guy who won a Braves fan player for a day contest and they let him take live cuts

[msstate7]

Not sure I get Arcia to 2-hole. Do we want him hitting more than Olson, Riley, and ozuna?

I would rather move Olson to the 2 hole than Riley with ozuna in 4. Then who cares.

Who's on radio with Ben? Joe retired?

Question, maybe I was out of the loop.

Wasn't the plan to slow walk and limit the innings of Sale and Lopez so they could be available come October? Snit seems to be using them to max pitch counts and innings early on. Did that change?

We are going off a 5 man rotation and not skipping the back end spots when we have the chance to do so. So everyone is getting more days between starts. Sale only had 89 pitches over 7 innings. I think the more pitches you throw in an inning the more stressful those pitches are on the arm. Throwing 12 pitches per inning SP could probably pitch 10 innings without serious damage to their arm. Its those 20+ pitch innings that **** up the arm.

That was the latest strike 3 call I can remember. At least it was correct

[Hulavol]

That’s my starting catcher !

I think a 6 man rotation will make sense at some point

Braves have basically had that with all of the rain outs. Sale and Lopez are only making 1 start a week.

I would assume with the injury up front they had to adjust that whole idea.
