8/13/18 DH GAME THREAD vs MARLINS

83 pitches. Due up 5th in the bottom of the sixth. If his spot comes up I'd pinch hit for him. If not try to coax another inning out of him. I'd have someone ready in the pen either way. Biddle probably makes the most sense. Have Biddle try to get us to the 9th then Minter.

If his spot comes up we might not need minter or Biddle. Score enough to get sobby in.
 
Plus, in that case, doesn't Miller get downgraded to 'complete garbage filth who actually hurts the team's chances of winning any game he enters'?

Because that's what he has been since that trade.

Also, it's been mentioned many times, but if they thought they were close to winning it and made the deal with that goal in mind, Ender+Dansby was worth 5 wins more than Miller in 2016. So, again...horrific trade.

Ha, there is no way Swanson would have played for the Diamondbacks in 2016. Shoot, he might still be in their AA, given he's never actually demonstrated he can hit AA pitching.
 
Pretty solid debut for Touki.

A little bit confusing given how many different pitches MLB claims he threw.

Does look like the velocity dropped off, but he was doing so many different things...?

For purposes of the Braves playoff run - great job eating 6 innings in a double header straight out of AAA.
