If Jake so much as winces, put him on the IL.

Reliable source (my phone) sez McNeil is back and active for both games. With all the doubleheaders, I'd expect Conforto soon, too, if he's able to go.

Ian Anderson takes time off from Tull again to pitch for the Braves in G1.

The scouting report says he's too old to rock 'n' roll, but too young to die.

My twitter sez some dude making his MLB debut is to start game 1, LHP Kyle Muller.



Ranked the No. 60 overall prospect by Baseball America

'Gameday' sez Muller has an 18.00 ERA so he must got lit up an inning or two this year.

Then that lineup makes sense if that Muller guy is pitching since it is the usual lineup these days vs. lefties.

A walk, a sacrifice bunt getting the runner to second, a sacrifice fly getting him to third, and a run-scoring wild pitch.



Back in the Torre days, we called that a rally. Not all that different these days, either, but I'll take it.

One hit in the last 14 2/3 innings, and it was a routine grounder through a spot abandoned by the secondbasseman.



He has 27 strikeouts in the same period.



Confounding.

Laboring as he walks the pitcher followed by an infield mound conference, and I feel uneasy.

David Schoenfield from espn:


Jacob deGrom became the first pitcher checked under the illegal grip substance guidelines as he left the mound after the top of the first. The umpire checked his hat, glove and belt and he and catcher Tomas Nido walked off with big smiles after getting cleared.

Yay, the shift (probably) steals one for him.



I guess he's OK.

Re: IGT 06/21 - Braves at Metropolitans - Game 1

First hit of the game for the Braves on a misplayed fly ball to left center.



Despite deGrom's ridiculous success, he sure looks like he's grinding to me. But the Panda pops out.



I'm guessing he's coming out.

That OF goof was all part of the plan to make the Braves spend Sandoval before reaching the final innings.

Damn. But at least one of the dumbest rules in the game saves a run (with two outs, a runner on first should be able to score on a ground-rule double).

I hope Nido's OK, but I'd probably pinch-run for him here either way.

I on the other hand predict a three-run double. And I'm totally writing this before seeing the actual outcome, swear to Schaefer.

Not a good inning by Lugo obviously but still a two run lead and the bottom of the Atlanta lineup in the 7th

Keep those early hitters off the base paths and it never gets back around to Acuna (5th batter in line)

Not sure why McCann and not Guillorme went up to pinch-hit there, unless he's coming into the game anyhow.

McCann was already in the game. Nido was pulled after running the bases.

Nice win ... but it was also the shoulda win game w/JdG vs rookie.

Game 2 figures to be more of a toss up and it will make or break the DH
