    Why not double switch if we are going Newk. I guess we don’t have any righties on the bench. But we jus burned one or lefties for one hitter.

    That was better. Still, 2-0 lead to 2-2.

    2 runs was never going to win this game.

    Folty did his job. He wasn’t crisp but Jesus. He went almost 5 and kept his team in the game.

    Facing the nl ERA leader and the nls best offense. I'd consider that a win so far.

    i am guessing no Blevins tonight as he has pitched three in his last four. So using him last night could cost us tonight.

    Cuz Newk is hitting. This is a bad move. We are burning Newk for tomorrows game. Martin and Ryu up next. Use one of our righties against them. We have a 9 man pen at the moment. Maybe we bring up Minter if we burn Newk and Blevins tonight.

    Unfortunately, they don't tally winners and losers until the clock shows all zeroes...or a similar cliché,

    The two games against the Mets he faced only 1 hitter. He should be available.

    Minter just pitched in Gwinnett. But not sure about his work load. It looks like snit is going to tell Newk to go three or so.

    Newk mechanics seem to be drifting back to his old ways versus righties.

    Of course. It's been a good game so far. Dodgers are a powerhouse team.

    To me the Dodgers vs Braves reminds me of the Astros and Braves of the late 90s. A really good team vs a juggernaut.

    The ump has stopped calling pitches strikes that are a foot outside to right handed hitters--at least for now.
