Description

DOB and EOF acknowledge that the train's still on track despite breakouts on both the Marlins and Cardinals (:30). Has Eric been apart of club with as much uncertainty and turnover in the starting rotation as this year's Braves (10:45)? The duo then react to Atlanta optioning Sean Newcomb to the Braves' alternate training site in Gwinnett after an abysmal outing against Philadelphia (15:30). When/if Newcomb is recalled, would he best serve the team from the bullpen, and what's the diagnosis for his meager strikeout-to-walk ration as a starter (29:00)? What can the Braves do to replenish their depleted rotation (41:00)? Could unproven yet abundantly talented options Bryse Wilson, Tucker Davidson and/or Ian Anderson make the leap into a starting/opener role (46:00)? The Bravos Boys laud the bullpen's brilliance with their admiration supported by a stat from Jayson Start (51:00). Lastly, Ronnie and Freddie had themselves a game (55:00).
