They should bring him up and put Ender on the bench unless Riley can't hit better than him in the MLB. Or if Ender improves and Riley is still on fire put him at 3rd and pay multi millions to a guy on the bench. But, they never listen to me.

They just took out Ender and put in Camargo and I almost thought they were listening to my rambling, but no it was the illness Freddie had they said... meanwhile more homers for the road team, 5-0 so far.

You could tell at Freddie’s first at bat he did not feel well.

Donaldson has not been the problem. If Ender improves, trade him immediately while there's still value. With Riley coming up this year and Pache probably coming up next year, Ender is very expendable.

They took out Folty in the 5th and it was 8-0 and the genius mgr thought it was a good idea to have Biddle clean up his mess. Braves only down 11, come on offense you can do it.

Come back time? Never know. McCann broke up the no hitter, then Culberson got a real RBI and Acuna got the walk RBI. 11-3

Grasping at small things, but Parsons seemed to do alright out there in the losing effort now that he's been to the minors and back.

Braves are letting relievers hit and not keeping them in to pitch... uh give up much? At least the Phillies went down too, only half as hard as the Braves but we'll take it.

14-3 final score, Venters gave up a homer in the 9th after walking 2. By the way, he said 'if' but Frenchy the announcer said 'If Ender is out more than one game and day to day, the Braves could call up Austin Riley.'

Austin Riley is called up


Would probably expect Inciarte and Folty to be put on the IL tomorrow, and Biddle either put on as well or DFA'd.

If Riley can do what he did in AAA last night again tonight in the Show I'd be pleased.

(1-4, GS, BB vs Buffalo)

well, technically we could have ended up with 9 and 13 lol. But your point remains. 10 was actually pretty good coming back from the Mavs. I think the best we could have gotten from them was 9 anyways. But yeah...that #8 is just a kick in the nuts.

Schlenk and Ressler would have been better off just playing Black Jack with that dealer from Vegas Vacation.

From the Braves' twitter: "The Braves today selected the contract of Austin Riley from Triple-A Gwinnett, and he will make his Major League debut tonight. In addition, the Braves recalled RHP Touki Toussaint from the Stripers and designated LHP Jesse Biddle for assignment."



From Kelsey W twitter: "

Brian Snitker says Austin Riley will primarily play LF, where he is starting tonight, but he will get some time at 3B on Donaldson off days. Touki Toussaint will be available out of the bullpen for now. #Braves"

Can't believe he's finally in ATL:

Tonight's lineup:



Acuña 8
Swanson 6
Freeman 3
Donaldson 5
Markakis 9
Riley 7
Albies 4
Flowers 2
Soroka 1

Wonder what will happen when Ender comes back lineup wise? Sounds like there will be a good player on the bench one way or the other. I think he'll be awesome, but if Riley was the bad one he'd go back to AAA I'm guessing. If he does well, then who would they send to AAA. Hopefully not Camargo or Culberson. Sorry Joyce that leaves you in the hypothetical.
