    Looks like Wilson is getting sent down, Minter is called up and Gausman might be ready. So i'd guess Wright or Gausman.

    Just looked at ESPN schedule, it says Gausman on Friday and nothing after that.

    I think its time to buy Camargo as a very useful piece and the bat especially from the right side, plays.

    Anyone that followed him early on thought his D would be the calling card. Hard to believe the bat developed that far.

    I'd like to see Wright after a couple starts where he's finally calming down, not overthrowing, and we get to see who he really is.

    Give Dansby the night off and start Camargo at short tonight. I didn't love the way Dansby's swing looked after he got hurt last night. The last thing we need to do is push him this early in the year.

    This. He should have been yanked last night and sat 1-2 games to make sure there is no lingering pain. Can't be too careful this early in the year.

    I can't see them letting him play on if there was any thought it was more than nothing

    Wright needs to get at least 10 starts imo. Giving him one here and one there isn’t gonna be good for his development. He was obviously overthrowing the other night and the nerves got the best of him.

    FWIW, Swanson said he's okay, but i'd probably hold him out tonight.

    The weather was also horrible. Every pitcher struggled with command that night.

    Except when players try to play through injuries and try not to let on that it's as bad as it actually is.

    Which is exactly what Swanson did last year, too.

    Wanted to report in from Suntrust - game was awesome, man we got loud in the 8th and ninth innings. Sat with Venters wife and kid and Freddie’s parents. Super nice people. Other player’s wives behind me and we had a ball, didn’t ask who they were. Man those girls can put away some booze!
    Huge crowd for a school night. Place was pretty much full.

    Why Snitker wouldn't you just keep the guy who had the best night at the plate last night in the leadoff spot...

    He will literally have Ender leading off as long as he’s here. I like Ender a lot, but at the same time wouldn’t mind to see him traded in the right deal if Pache or Waters makes it for that reason.

    I mean last year he moved Ender down when Acuna was leading off. But Albies is the hot hand right now. And he had a great night last night.

    Because the correct lineup vs RHP doesn’t change based on 5 games.

    Albies probably will end up being the 1-2 hitter long term, but that decision isn’t reached after 5 games.
