The future rotation is slowly taking shape.

So glad Albies got a day off with two more coming this week. Smart move.
Leo aside, I wouldn’t go out of my way to talk to those other three if they knocked on my front door to give me money.It’s #Braves Alumni Sunday! Welcome back Leo Mazzone, Johnny Estrada, Russ Ortiz and Cristhian Martinez!

The starting rotation being 10th in baseball in FIP is truly astounding given the expectations I had coming into this season. There wasn’t a single pitcher in our rotation I would have felt comfortable betting on having a 2 WAR season.
The next step is determining how to best trim the deadweight. McCarthy to the bullpen is easy enough, but what to do about Julion. Pretty amazing how quickly his contract went from bargain to rotten.
All I remember us being confused he didn’t make the roster a few years back.No love for C-Mart?
Maybe the rebuild wasn’t a failure.
Coppy has to be one pissed off feller at this point.
Knowing that he could have done just fine without cheating.
