Kolby Allard will be the 26th man for the DH today. Was kind of hoping it would be Touki. I'm wondering if they're trying to showcase Allard for a future trade. Hmmmm

Game 1 Braves Lineup 1. Ender Inciarte (L) CF 2. Ozzie Albies (S) 2B 3. Freddie Freeman (L) 1B 4. Nick Markakis (L) RF 5. Adam Duvall (R) LF 6. Johan Camargo (S) 3B 7. Tyler Flowers (R) C 8. Dansby Swanson (R) SS 9. Max Fried (L) P Acuna getting the day off for Game 1. Not a bad strategy - get Duvall a few ABs before he faces a tough lefty in Scherzer tonight. Scherzer started throwing lefty? No wonder he's so dang good! LOL. I'm off my game today. Had it in my mind that he was lefty - must have been thinking of Kershaw or someone.

You got the tough part right. That's what counts.

Dammit that’s frustrating when Ozzie swings at pitches like that with a 2-0 count, just giving away ABs left and right that way.

Three weak nerf grounders to start the game off a guy with an ERA of eleventy billion.

Bad call by the ump. Costing Fried pitches. Unbelievable.

I personally think Fried is a keeper. But hey, that's just me.

Umpiring has gotten worse with the addition of replay... it's amazing.

Umpiring has gotten worse with the addition of replay... it's amazing. And, the UMP attitude has gotten dramatically worse
