After watching these commercials with Chip Caray in them I'm fully convinced he actually is on cocaine.

I thought someone said he pitched sunday but you're right I double checked. In that case I agree with having him available tomorrow. I still didn't like not using Allard today though as I don't want him in a close game tomorrow.

there isn't any particular reason why Allard would pitch in a close game tomorrow.

The Braves have everyone available in their pen. Even Luke Jackson is a better option to pitch than Allard.

The only way Allard is likely to get in the game is if Sanchez can't go, he leaves the game absurdly early, or the Braves get blown out.

It wasnt the best but not using Venters, Brach, or Minter today is a win.

And Jackson, Winkler, Biddle should all be available as well. Sobotka is probably only one who cant go on Tuesday. Pen is in fine shape.

Pen is in good shape thanks to Folty going 8, I just don't want to see Allard tomorrow in relief and don't trust snit not to use him in a close one if Sanchez leaves early or only goes 5.

Allard is the sacrificial lamb in the current bullpen configuration.

Unless it went to like 13-15 innings and Allard was the last guy to pitch, thats only way hes in a close game.

Pen is more than fresh for Tuesday.

If it's a close game, Brach/Minter/Winkler/Venters would be in before Allard. Besides, if Sanchez is good, Allard may get down for a fresh arm anyway.
 
I don't know how valid the adage is but wrt/ to Philly, Atlanta's advantage in the loss column came home to roost tonight. They say "you can win games but you can't 'unlose' them." With the Braves sweeping a doubleheader while the Phillies are idle that saying seemed to be borne out.

You won't see them before the 5th knowing snit, maybe if Sanchez can go at least 5 tomorrow. But I am not sure what to expect with him and I don't have faith in snit not to use Allard if say Sanchez is out after 4 or something. But I am glad Folty went 8 putting only Sobotka as out tomorrow.
