Freeman is a monster right now
what was said is the Braves think an innings limit is less important that monitoring pitch counts
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."

Could be logical. The Braves do a good job monitoring whatever they monitor when they determine guys need a rest.
Saying there isn’t an innings limit doesn’t mean guys won’t be rested as the season wears on though, which may turn into an innings limit in all but terminology.

Donaldson since May 1 (doesn't include tonight)...
120 PA .238/.333/.381
Babip = .333
K = 30.0%, bb = 12.5
RWC = 91
Anyone worried?
Let him finish this
Im sure they monitor spin rates and command to see if a pitcher needs rest.

Only 92 pitches and he's been breezing since the 4th. I think his pitch count was in the mid-50s after 4, so that would make less than 40 since. I'm fine either way, but it would be nice to have at least one complete game this year.

If soroka is on an innings limit, I hate to waste some here with a big lead
if Soroka is on an innings limit, i'd have pulled him after 6.
But 92 pitches and hardly any stress innings, i'm good either way. He'll probably be skipped later in the season though. I'd probably throw a reliever in the 9th but i can see both sides.
