Keuchel owes Corbin one. Won't be able to watch. Son is playing in the big Tuscola-Pisgah game. Go Mounties! Go Braves!

Mark Bowman @mlbbowman The Braves had Austin Riley play RF for Gwinnett last night to prepare him to return tonight and be part of the right-handed heavy lineup used against Corbin, who has allowed a .523 OPS vs. LHH and a .668 OPS vs. RHH

Duvall is already here, he's a RH power hitter who strikes out a lot just like Riley, and he is a much more experienced player in the outfield.

I think they are using both Duvie and Riley as bookends to Jr.

Duvall over Camargo.......lol, just another few days and they should have Camargo completely cooled off again.......I liked the use of Billy Hamilton as a pinch hitter last night instead of Camargo, Hamilton being one of the worst hitters in the history of the game. But it's almost laughable at this point.

I agree, Hamilton’s stated use was for a pinch runner and 9th inning defensive replacement. Pinch hitting him is ludicrous unless Julio and Max have already pinch hit.

Yeah it was a dual stupid move, because we also lost Hamilton as a possible pinch runner later. Which may have really mattered if we went to extra innings. Just more of that secret inside info Snitker has I guess, lol.....

But it's almost laughable at this point. Well it does make sense in the regard that they have already decided Billy Hamilton will be on the post-season roster and Camargo will not. I mean it doesn't make sense trying to win games now or even in general, but it's not hard to discern their thinking..
