They are pretty banged up (Benintendi, Sale, Rodriguez), but it's a AAAA pitching staff right now. Third-highest payroll in baseball. There's no column for W/$ in the standings, but they'd be last be a long ways if that were the case.

AA said the other day that they are completely re-vamping Newks delivery and that he is not going to be under consideration to come back any time soon......interesting

They really miss Rendon more than I thought they would. Some big performance drops from Sanchez, Suzuki, Robles, Cabrera, Kendrick and the bullpen as well. Maybe those performance drops level up a bit in a longer season, but that's the problem with a truncated season. Still a good team in my view but everything has to click.

Scherzer and Stras being hurt doesn't help either.
They actually said that when they first sent him down - guess he had to clarify for someone.

Good thing they got to that soon.Hate to see him waste a lot of control with a bad delivery.

For real. He has consistently missed high and away to right handers since we acquired him and they are now going to ‘fix’ him. I call bull****.

Needs to be Hamels. He can give you 5 innings if he's built up.

Haven't seen it reported on here, but I see that RHP Victor Vodnik and RHP William Woods are at the alternate site.

Honestly, "Victor Vodnik" is such a cool name that he needs to make it to the big leagues for that reason alone.

He'd be the evil genius villain in a Bond movie.

Add to that, his middle name is "Francisco."

as I recall a lot of ppl are really high on VV. He's just really far away b/c I think he was in A or high A ball.
The main concern was he was a 6 foot or sub 6 foot RH pitcher. Usually that is reliever or nothing. But there are notable examples where that has worked as a starter for various periods of time.

I found his inclusion interesting as well. Maybe they monitor the workouts of guys who are off-site completely and saw something they liked. Only information on him at Perfect Game is that he threw 93 at a showcase while in high school, but they didn't have anything else on him.
I'm just surprised that Peter Kozma is hanging around. Maybe the Braves need him on the field so that the infield fly rule can be applied inappropriately during a playoff game.
