I be ****...

Yeah you right....he might not make the BP.....but Snit would probably bring him on out of respect

We need to limit the innings on these guys. The long season is catching up. Acuna's pursuit of 40/40 is far less important than being healthy next week for the NLDS. Get them a couple of ABs here and there to stay ready but no need to push it.

Luke Jackson and Julio do not need to be in the NLDS.

I would love the 100 wins but we lose this game then oh well.  Get ready for the playoffs.

Most importantly..

ET is to start the threads

I agree...

I have started maybe one thread and I am 0-1.  I stay away from starting threads.

What happened to Acuna?

Hip tightness 

[LouDog 3,613]

Man i hope they are all healthy for the postseason

[LouDog 3,613]

Come on Markakis!!!

[Unknøwn 10,756]

Cervelli should be on the NLDS roster. Julio might have pitched his way off it. I also dont think he would start in a potential NLCS. Youd go with Fried over Julio.

[LouDog 3,613]

Its your turn Duvall

[LouDog 3,613]

Make him throw a strike

[usmcdirtybird 4,273]

I think Swarzak is on the bubble.  

[Falconsfan567 35,135]

Mike Soroka will not start tonight. His last regular season start has been pushed back to Sunday. That would line him up for Game 2 of the NLDS on regular rest on Friday.

[Unknøwn 10,756]

Josh Tomlin will start tonight. Soroka would get 2 days of extra rest if he starts Game 3.

I think Swarzak lost consideration weeks ago. His work has been few and far between.

Shut him down.

I'm sure he'll sit today. Team off day tomorrow. He can get a few ABs this weekend to stay sharp.

[Unknøwn 10,756]

Ender is responding well to increased workouts. Braves haven't decided if they'll activate him this weekend. He may go to Orlando and get simulated ABs. He can get more work in there as opposed to the 12 ABs he could get in NY.

We are limping to the finish line....I hope rest can help Freddie and Acuña get back to closer to themselves.

Yes. Rest and fresh legs is definitely needed. Hopefully Freddie’s elbow responds to the rest.
