    5/21 Game thread: Braves vs. Nats

    Braves:
    Inciarte 8
    Swanson 6
    Markakis 9
    Kemp 7
    Adams 3
    Suzuki 2
    Peterson 4
    Ruiz 5
    Garcia 1

    Nats:
    Turner 6
    Werth 7
    Harper 9
    Zimmerman 3
    Murphy 4
    Rendon 5
    Wieters 2
    Taylor 8
    Strasburg 1

    Interesting to see Dansby back up in the 2 spot after his latest hot streak. Hopefully this is a one game thing and Phillips will be up there when he returns.

    I don't like it but there are just too many left handers in the lineup.

    Game temp only gonna be high 70s/low 80s, but humidity at 94%. Should be pretty miserably sticky for strasburg

    Any word on who gets dropped from the 25-man to make room for Adams? My hope is my Boni lies over the ocean.

    I agree as well but that just leaves Swanson in the 2 hole as a must.

    So it was Johan Camar Go! Thinking about it, it's better for him to play every day than caddy at the big league level.

    Still would like to see another bat on the bench other than Bonifacio. A lot of folks on here would shed Santana, but I've seen enough of him up here in Minnesota and he plays a decent CF and SS (for back-up purposes), so I see him as the better option to Bonifacio. But they are redundant at this point. Can't figure out the Braves' love affair with Bonifacio. I thought he would have made sense the year we made the playoffs and had Eliot Johnson playing 2B due to injuries and poor performance by regulars, but he's really not a big league talent anymore.

    We have a ton of games coming up against sub 500 teams as well. Hope Adams provides a spark right away.

    I don't like Dansby in the two-hole, but I understand why they'd do it.

    Harper looks so bad this series. So far, at least.

    Our pitchers have done such a great job against the Nationals' 3-4-5 this series. So encouraging.

    Dansby comes up in the two-hole and immediately looks bad.
