The nats were really upset with the strike zone all night, Soto came up and I guess said something that pissed the ump off and he got tossed. The nats bench wasn't happy about it and their hitting coach got tossed too.

This. I'll add that Soto was arguing his previous at bat. I imagine that looked odd from the stands since it was inbetween batters and Soto hadn't even swung yet. It's a big no-no for rookies to question the umpires.

Allard or Touki likely getting the call on Monday against the Marlins. TT has posted a 2.01 ERA in 5 starts with Gwinnett. TT is supposed to start tomorrow for Gwinnett, but if he gets pulled then he's probably getting the call.

Johan's day off, Swanson needs more imo... but nevertheless hope it all works out. Also I think Kurt gets too many days off and it hurts his productivity. And while I'm complaining I hope the GM coaches the bullpen around the actual manager cause he stinks at it. Also old player development isn't one of ATL's strong suits I'd say. They keep trying it year by year signing former greats but then they get sent away after stinking up the ATL and then end up being stars again when they get somewhere else like the Mets, Rangers, Dodgers, ets.
