8/2 GDT @Mets

[Enscheff]

The Braves already had the #5 offense vs LHP in MLB according to wOBA (.337), and #2 in the NL behind only the Rockies. Now they added Duvall and will throw out this lineup vs Vargas:

Acuna CF
Albies 2B
Freeman 1B
Markakis RF
Duvall LF
Camargo 3B
Flowers C
Swanson SS
Folty P

I expect the domination of LHP to continue for the rest of the season (and unfortunately much of the same mediocre output vs RHP).

This roster seems pretty well constructed to battle with the Cubs and Dodgers in a playoff series where the bulk of the SPs will be LHP.

expecting a yuge game from Markakis

Wonder if splitting FF and Neck with Duvall would be better? Still love this lineup though

[The Chosen One]

It's currently raining in Atlanta right now. Not sure about Cobb.

I think we face Matz later in this series. So two starts for Duvall. The way this team is set up, we have much better chances against in the playoffs against a team with lots of lefty starting pitching and whose lineup tilts right. Unfortunately, both the Dodgers and Cubs hit RH pitching quite well.

Love flowers batting at the bottom of the order. He is not a #5....

However, the bottom 3 are farely easy outs against a decent pitcher.

Like the wits in here, it’s very dry in western Montana currently.

[The Chosen One]

Guys it's currently pouring at The Ted right now. Not sure if we're gonna get this game in or not.

96 and sunny here. I don't see any reason the game won't go on as planned.
