Game two of the series with the Braves.
More scoring would be nice today.
The team says that Chad Dallas is up with the team, in case they need an extra arm tomorrow. I suppose that depends on how deep Patrick Corbin can go in tonight’s game. The cool thing about the rule that you can only option a player 5 times in a season, is that we get to see many different relievers in that ‘last man in the pen’ role. I’ll admit, it becomes a pain at the end of a OOTP Baseball season.
Jesus Sanchez gets back into the lineup as DH today, with George Springer sitting. Nathan Lukes gets the leadoff spot.

Here is a stat that I’m sure surprises you all. I hate when they get hits off pitches out of the zone, I think it just reinforces the idea that they should be chasing, but then Clement has always been this way and it works for him. I wonder how it will work as he ages?
Blue Jays have an AL-high 138 hits on pitches out of the zone this season, thanks to Ernie Clement who leads the Majors with 26 hits on pitches out of the zone.#BlueJays50pic.twitter.com/BPXwIjJVcH
