I guess Wright but I think we'll see AJSS in that game as well.
Wasn't Jackson Stephens the callup for the DH?

yes...
all of them will pitch tonight. was Wright called up yet, or is that something they might do between games.. Wonder if Lee goes to the IL mysteriously.

They don’t add extra players for DH after roster expansion, so he will be up for a bit I imagine.
Gotcha. I just checked and it looks like Winans was sent down for Stephens. And if no extra player is added after Sept callups then it looks like Wright won't pitch unless someone goes down between games.

I think Kirby makes the post season. He will be a wild card imo.. maybe he goes Matzek for the Braves this year.. He has the stuff when right.
Iggy slid Ozzie a 20 for lunch.
He has nowhere near Matzek's stuff. Lol

This is a 10/10 callback to baseball’s ultimate win vulture

Over 12 k9... he obviously has stuff
No. There's no 27th man in September. Jackson was called up to take Winans spot

Good win, but Ozzie Albies has got to be the dumbest and least fundamentally sound player on any playoff team. It‘s not just the defensive blunders, but also his constant swinging 3-0 and refusal to take free walks that is going to get exploited in the postseason.
Nice to preserve the win, would have been an annoying one to lose
Acuna is strangling home the MVP and its damn fun to watch. 7 bombs in 11 games? Feels like he should be getting to 40, which is huge. Needs four more in 19 games. At this point that's only a 34 homer pace in those games. Crazy as before this binge he was at 29 homers in 132 games. Which means to hit 40 at that point, he needed 11 in the final 30 games...40-70 in play. and albeit RBI is a largely meaningless stat, still always nice to hit the 100 round number, which he has largely solidified, up to 95. Lastly he now has 76 walks and 76 k's. Also crazy as can't believe Chipper basically did that every year and had more walks than K's. Now I'm on a tangent but he really was just an all time hitter
TD OPS alert down to 712. #starting catcher.

I didn't mean to imply he had Matzek stuff.. just the stuff to be dominate when on.. He can't hit 99 like Matzek.
