darkdude41 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 who would the potential pitchers to start in Medlen's place be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATL Fan in the DMV Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Color me surprised if Medlen misses the start. This was taken from Bowman's blog on Wednesday...a day after Medlen's slide:PHOENIX -- Kris Medlen impressed the Braves with the athleticism he displayed while reaching around D-backs catcher John Hester's tag in the sixth inning of Tuesday night's win. But more importantly, the right-handed hurler gave them a sense of relief when he awoke on Wednesday without any concerning discomfort in the left shoulder that he incurred with the slide."It's just a little tight in the back of my shoulder," Medlen said. "I'm fine. "At first, I thought it was serious, but it's just like a little stinger. My right shoulder feels good."Medlen plans to complete his normal in-between starts exercises in preparation for Sunday afternoon's start against the Twins. He still feels somewhat embarrassed by the fact that he was forced to make an immediate exit from Tuesday night's game with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder. They may opt to go with another starter (Resop maybe?). But if they do, it will be because they are just playing it safe to give him extra rest, and not because he is injured.Anyway, tough, tough series. We will face some really tough pitching. I say we go 1 of 3, but would love to take 2 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedandBlack4Life! Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Medlen (shoulder) has a mild strain of the left rotator cuff, but he still expects to make his next scheduled start on Sunday, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Fortunately, it was his non-pitching shoulder, so it appears as though Medlen and the Braves will come away from this incident with a minor scare.(Rotowire.com)Unless something changes in the next couple of days, I think he'll make his start.

JTRaines92 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 If Kris can't go Jonny will go right? Anyways, I see a possible sweep but we should take 2/3 at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joremarid Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 they could, although very unlikely, move up KK one day. we know for sure it wont be hanson. maybe the vulture?btw i would just like to take this moment to say that brooks conrad is my favorite brave this year. no disrespect to hewyard or glaus.

Unknøwn Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 I expect Medlen to start but if not I would guess Venters it would be either that or give a call to Parr since Resop won't be fully rested and I would much rather Venters make it if Medlen cant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Dog Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 i'm startin to worry about the mets. they get the cakewalk orioles and we get a tough twins team.I'm just laughing at the Phillies: Boston x2 (already played and lost one series), Yankees, Twins, Blue Jays, and Indians. Hopefully they get swept a couple of times. Halladay is facing the Yankees so it's not going to be a normal dominating game for him like it is against the NL.

The Mets have it worse, even with the O'd and the Tribe on their schedule. We counter with the Pirates and the Royals. We both play the Twins and Tigers. And the Mets have to play the Yankees twice, while we face the Rays and the White Sox. The Rays are definitely at least as good as the Yankees, but the Braves are a better team than the White Sox.This should be a good series. As usual, I don't have much hope for Lowe's start, but I like our chances with Hudson and Medlen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I'm wondering if there's a trade in the works. It's weird that they haven't announced who's going to take McLouth's spot on the 25-man roster by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
