    Yes. He is borderline unplayable vs LHP...so maybe he's .75 of an OFer?

    Point being the Braves have Acuna and 2 guys in Markakis/Ender who should only face RHP. Even if Duvall succeeds in a platoon role vs LHP, the Braves still need 1 more RHH OFer.

    I feel like Pache could at least match Enders numbers vs lefties

    Not sure just matching it is justification to call him up...If he was an average or better MLB hitter vs LHP, then it probably would be worth it.

    FWIW--

    Ronald, Ozzie, Ender, Camargo, Charlei and Riley have never faced Odorizzi.

    Vs Odorizzi

    Josh has 25 ABs with a .240 Avg
    Duvall 5 Abs, .400 Avg
    Flowers 2 ABs, .500 Avg
    McCann 31 ABs, .419 Avg
    Freddie 3 ABs, .333 Avg
    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    I'm not sure why the Braves never pulled the trigger on that obvious Odorizzi for Matt Adams deal.

    It made too much sense not to happen

    Laz changed the whole AB for Ender. 1st 2 pitches appeared high and higher out of zone but were called strikes.
