The Braves lost Saturday night and will now have a chance at 1:35 PM ET today to take the series win with them from a series that they really should win. Once again, bullpen fatigue bit them, as this sort of six-man rotation arrangement with two hybrid-long-men in Reynaldo Lopez (who is also untrustworthy) and Didier Fuentes, two generally untrustworthy arms at the moment in Aaron Bummer and Tyler Kinley, and three absolute studs just is putting the Braves continually in bad spots and has directly contributed to a few losses this season. It’s a tough spot, roster0wuse, but they have got to figure out a way to have starters pitch effectively longer, have more arms they can trust in the bullpen, and/or use Reynaldo Lopez and Didier Fuentes more frequently. They’re still playing very well and aren’t paying much of a price in the standings, but this is not a tenable situation for another ~115 games.
