El Duderino is good stuff.

DOB tweeted 20 minutes ago that he's been added for tonight - Rio down.

So you’d have him be the Dudarocanonical guy at first?

The Braves schedule goes like this...

16 straight games (currently 2 games into this stretch)
10 straight games
6 Straight games

The final 10 games include an off day and 7 games against the Phillies. Freeman needs to be in every one of those games if the Braves haven't clinched. No matter what anyone thinks, Freeman is not immune to the effects of fatigue.

He should be rested at least one game during the upcoming 14 consecutive games, preferably against a RHP that Duda is likely to handle well.

I agree. Also need to get markakis a couple days off

With the way Inciarte’s been hitting recently, I’d look to sit Markakis once or twice against LHP and sub Duvall (who could use some more PA to get off the schneid).

Agreed. Plus when Duvall gets hot he can get really hot with hitting homers. I hope we get to see that at some point here this year.

Can he play LF?

I believe he can... and has, although he may not be great out there.

He has to be better than Soto.

On Duda Day, you get a bobblehead of Stephen Foster.

He roped that ball last night. Heyward going down basically robbed us of that hit. Almora barely got there.
