    You can literally play those guys tomorrow. “Missed opportunity” is a fallacy. That opportunity is ever present.

    If we want to talk about single game outcome exaggeration, we can debate the impact of not resting our starters today.

    Besides, we should get an update any day now on Donaldson’s suspension. He can rest then.

    Track record disagrees with this. Neck hasn’t had a full day off yet. FF had what one game off as a starter. JD has 4 or 5 maybe.

    They will be too tired by then to rest any.

Oh my dog didn’t bark at the mailman. Must mean neck will have a big day.

    Our manager should have a plan to rest guys throughput the year and don’t waiver on that based on who you are playing. Twit is a horrible manager.
    Plus expected performance the rest of the season.

    That doesn’t fluctuate game to game though. It is slower to adjust. So it is more a constant variable

    Definitely need to know if he'll be out for any extended time.

    These games against our Division opponents are big. Also against the Cubs who could be a wild card threat to us if that situation occurs.

    We need to rest guys more in general. Not doing so today in particular doesn't seem like a worse missed opportunity than any other day, it’s the general trend that’s concerning.

    This is true. The Braves are in a great spot right now.

    I’m sure Nick’s one pinch hit PA exhausted him in those games.

    The issue with Nick isn’t rest. He needs to be in a platoon.

    The only guy I truly worry about needing more time off is Donaldson.

    He takes those into his own hands. Notice he got hot after he got that day off when he was ejected? He knows his body.

    You can, true, but IMO it would be better to do it today since they are using a lesser pitcher. My feeling is that we have a better chance of winning today with subs than we would tomorrow (though Lester has not exactly been sharp the last month)

    Lester is also a good opportunity to put in Johan over Neck
