    Donaldson getting the day off was the plan probably right up until Riley got drilled in the hand. I’m sure they’re probably trying to make sure they have at least 1 of them in the lineup.

    Please not a re-hash of Bob Horner and I hope I did not jinx him.

    Has anyone seen anything about Riley’s hand? I don’t see anything searching it and I’m at ballpark so won’t get the TV update.

    Bowman and DOB saying it's fine and just a routine off day.

    his locker is between Acuna's and Albies'...he needs some recovery time

    I don’t believe that for a second. If Riley’s healthy he doesn’t need a “routine off day” and the plan from the second the suspension for Donaldson was handed down was he was going to take it today as the plan was for him to have today off anyway. The plan changed for some reason and it wasn’t to give one of the youngest players on the team some routine rest.

    Agree, but it's only been, like, 10 hours since his hand was hit. It's better just to keep him out and let it heal for a day.

    A hand can be sore and still ok. That kind of thing can mess up a swing if a hitter is hurting. A day off is worth it.

    Comargo was the only person who did not play yesterday. Day game after a night game. Extra innings. Why is he not starting today?

    I get taking a day or even a couple off to rest the hand and make sure it’s healthy. I actually fully endorse that approach. Don’t report it’s routine though. Especially after Donaldson’s suspension plan was reported earlier this week and has now been changed.

    Man I was just looking through some stats and Charlie Morton is having another really good year. I remember years ago Bill was always so excited about that guy but he looked like he’d never put it together. Now he gets into his 30s and he’s a borderline ace.

    Mike Minor is having an outstanding year...he's at 4.5 bWAR after putting up 3.7 last year.
