After HBP #2, I texted a friend suggesting semi-seriously that, next inning: Keuchel go to left, Culberson takes the mound replacing Ortega; Charlie goes a-plunking, gets tossed (would Weiss go too?); Keuchel goes back to pitching, with Hamilton coming in for Charlie.
I realize it might not be worth burning all that personnel, but, IMO, if warnings are issued, ejections must be enforced.

McCann had surgery last year on his right knee. The soreness yesterday was in the left knee. Catchers in the mid-30s are not without risk.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
Man the injury bug has started biting us hard the past month. With McCanns age I’d bring him back next year on a 1 year deal to backup but would go after Grandal hard.
Here's a fun tidbit about the 2019 Braves: As of today, Atlanta is 44-35 against teams with a >.500 record; only beaten by the Dodgers at 48-30. The Mets and Nationals have losing records against >.500 teams and the Phillies are 1 game over .500.
Spoiler alert: this is a damn good team.
the deep depth is coming into play
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
I heard today that AJax was actually removed last night for an injury concern of his own...that was from Kevin McCalpin on the Braves Radio Network this morning...the other option would be bringing in that catcher we got at the trade deadline....problem would be we would have to clear room on the 40 man for him
Get off my lawn!
