The Atlanta Braves

Maybe Barnes can make his second sweet 16 in 14 years this year! Or win his first conference tourney title since Bill Clinton’s first term!
 
But in all seriousness that’s a really nice pickup to go along with Chandler. Now we need to get Mutumbo’s kid and Jabari Smith
 
Bowman said they could go with Erlin on 3 days rest Thursday and then bullpen. But with no off days till next Thursday I don’t think that’s a good idea.
 
That’s a trash Idea

There are no guarantees Wright or Tomlin can give you five innings and you know Erlin on short rest can’t give you five. Might as well call up whoever is scheduled for Thursday at Gwinnett.
 
The other thing is (whether they want to admit or not) is that Erlin cannot start in the postseason for you, so why even continue to give him starts? Folty and Wright are much better options (assuming Folty’s velo is back). And I’d rather not start Tomlin in a game 4 elimination or series clinching game.
 
If Hamels starts on the 15th you can give him 3 starts before the postseason.
 
We’re literally starting options 7-11 until Fried and Hamels make it back. I’ve never seen anything like this.
 
**** I forgot we have Milone too...god he’s the game 4 starter if Max/Anderson/Cole are healthy
 
We really need that 2 seed. Right now that’d be the Rockies or Giants or Marlins. Don’t want anything to do against the Brewers or Cardinals
