    Time to redeem yourself, Tyler. (Why am I not optimistic?)

    That hammer curve, above average velocity, and prospect of possibly adding an above average sinker is why I’ve always been hesitant to see the Braves trade Fried away.

    I've long advocated for him to play with a splitter, cutter, or sinker, and try out whichever one feels most natural to him and/or looks most like the CU out of the hand. Just something actually useful and vaguely FB-like.

    Salma--"My guess is that he'll be in the game before the 7th."

    In RF in Bot 6th.

    Move Camargo to 2nd but could have put Culberson in RF.

    He's been an absolute dumpster fire. PS McNeil is pretty good.

    His catching pitches has really suffered. Don't know how many passed balls he's allowed, but it seems like 1 a game, not to mention WP that he should have knocked down.

    i knew that was coming, this smells like a bad loss with all the runners we've left on base.

    Snit should bring in a lefty for Cano and Conforto. Newk?

    Due to the Nats and Phillies lose earlier, this lose would be of the ****ty variety if it happens. Also, are we ever going to stop Rosario? Lol

    Touki is a righty specialist mostly, he has problems mostly vs lefties.

    Splits are very pronounced this year. In past seasons (including minors), he's had conventional splits but less pronounced. Going to Newk is the right move.

    Contreras ended his career.

    Lovely. Seeing eye single by Cano to give NY the lead.
