UP NEXT Braves: Matt Wisler (1-0, 1.29 ERA) is 1-1 career against the Reds in two starts and two relief appearances, allowing eight runs in 15 2/3 innings.
Reds: LH Brandon Finnegan (0-2, 11.05 ERA) makes his third start. He opened the season on the DL with a strained left biceps.
TRAINER'S ROOM Braves: Snitker plans to give RH reliever Sam Freeman a couple days off. Freeman has made a team-high 14 appearances and struggled during a 10-4 loss on Monday.
Reds: C Devin Mesoraco was scratched with a stiff neck. ... 3B Eugenio Suarez began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville. He has been sidelined since April 8, when he was hit by Jameson Taillon's pitch and broke his right thumb.
BUCKNOR OUT Umpire C.B. Bucknor was scheduled to work the plate, but was ill. Brian O'Nora took his turn behind the plate, and Chris Segal replaced him on the crew, working second base. Bucknor is expected back on Wednesday.

Flowers needs to come back so perez won't be able to see a baseball field again.

He just played the last two games and had two off days in a row prior to that. Whatever.

Its all about those advanced statistics. ? I don't understand sitting suzuki either. Maybe its because Snitker isn't 100% sure Flowers is ready to comeback in this road stretch and the next scheduled day off isn't until May 7th.

The best I can tell is Flowers should be back around Monday. So I don't think Suzuki should play every day up to that point, but after two rough losses to such a horrible team, I'd have him in there tonight. It helps we have Camargo and Acuna in the lineup tonight, but I'd still use Suzuki because this is a game we really need to win after the nonsense of the last two nights.

Perez is one of those baseball guys? He couldn't possibly look like one of those baseball player guys even if Snitker was drunk.
