Get off my lawn!
Newcomb is going to have a huge game tonight... looking for less than two walks.

It appears the FO isn't too worried about seeing what they have in Camargo.
I guess Snitker is waiting until Flaherty turns into his eventual pumpkin.
I have a feeling we are either going to score no runs off Thor.....or 4
Get off my lawn!
expecting a yuge game from Inciarte

It's a little confusing. I totally get pegging Camargo as a reserve infielder / super-utility guy; but you'd still think they'd want him to gain as many PAs as possible while the Braves are, at best, fringe wild-card contenders, and while there's an absence of any clearly better options at 3B. It's useful both for their evaluation and his growth curve.
Is there an angle with Flaherty that nobody's mentioned? Or is this just banal "hot hand" logic?
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
By "angle with Flaherty" I meant: Is there any reason, heretofore unnoticed or unnoted, to believe Flaherty's early success might be at all sustainable, or otherwise the mark of some "real" improvement? But I suppose even a "smart" administration that realizes Flaherty's more likely than not to plummet from his current (.429-babip-fueled) productivity is nevertheless going to be loathe to bench a guy with a .352 AVG (even if it's only through 64 PA).
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
I expect no Camargo is Snit's move as he likes to go with the hot hand. I doubt AA added him thinking he'd sit a while. If he doesn't start tomorrow Snit and AA might need to have a conversation.
Absolutely ridiculous for Camargo not to get a start here.
