"Fredi G said they think they dodged bullet with Simmons, ball didn't hit directly on boney part of finger."
Funny, my fingers don't have any non-boney region.

Ten years from now it will be common throughout the majors and be known as the Fredi.

Simmons had X-rays after the game, said they came back good. Hopes to get the swelling down and play tomorrow. #Braves

I'd still rest him.
CJ to SS?
Kidding.
BTW, Williams Perez is now 3-0 with a 1.50 ERA in 6 starts to start his MLB career.
Hes been impressive, probably due for some regression.
But he makes pitches.
BTW, my boy Wandy continues to do very well with Texas (and I'd contend he'd be doing even better in the NL facing pitchers instead of the DH). We'd be in first place right now even with Fredi and our bad bullpen with a rotation of Miller, Wood, Teheran, Perez and Wandy IMO. In other words, if we'd not went with Stults over Wandy as we did.
I'd still rest him.

Yea he isn't this good, though he does have a good sinker with movement. Plus it's not like he wasn't doing this in AAA too. He was 2-0 and had a 1.33 ERA in his 5 starts in AAA.
You were right on Wandy, '76. He's one of those guys whose charms aren't obvious until you've left him in your rotation for a month and he's given you 40 solid innings and kept you in all six games he started. A spring training showdown is not what he needed. He needed a fifth starter job and the ball.
I could understand passing on Wandy. But for Stults? gmafb
But people here continued to defend it because Wandy had a bunch of walks in his first few innings...
