Camargo is getting the start tonight, not over Markakis but over Riley.
Riley is struggling a little bit right now...good time for a rest and to work on some things.
Agree. He's whiffing a little bit too much right now. I get that a power hitter will strike out more than others, but he's striking out nearly 1.5 times per game. Also, he's batting .333 at home and .213 on the road.
It's a good move to give a rookie a breather when he gets in a funk at the plate. Let him decompress a bit and get some rest.
I asked last night and here it is again. Does anybody know why The Braves' game is listed on the Fox Sports South schedule but they are running boxing for the second night in a row ? I'm using The Spectrum TV app, but it seems unlikely they'd run separate programing for the app.
It's not at all uncommon for a physically gifted young hitter to have quick success, then pitchers figure him out a bit and he either makes adjustments or like Frenchy and others, he's never the same again.
I don't think that is what's going on with Riley, but there is that possibility.
Braves win again tonight 5-3. The pen pitched 3.1 innings of 2 hit 0 runs relief. Where did these guys come from ? All of a sudden the pen is pitching like it's a team strength.
Maybe the bullpen heard our criticism and were like, "wow, the DawgNation forum people aren't happy. We gotta step it up guys."
That must be it CTDawg.
