They activated Buddy Carlyle from the DL, designating Chris Resop for
assignment to make room today. Carlyle will probably get the next
Campillo start unless that blister clears up more quickly than
expected. Regardless, that leaves an interesting question about what
they'll do when Sori and Smoltz are ready to be reactivated. I'm
guessing Jo-Jo Reyes and Phil Stockman go back to Richmond but it's no
way certain.
Starters: Hudson, Jurrjens, Glavine, Campillo (once the blister goes
away.)
Relievers: Smoltz, Soriano, Acosta, Boyer, Ohman, Bennett
Bubbles: Reyes, Carlyle, Royce Ring
Gone: Stockman
One of Reyes or Carlyle will stay. Royce Ring may be the odd man out
as he's not performed that well to date and he isn't really a long
swing man like Carlyle. Smoltz/Sori/Acosta/Boyer/Ohman get the Braves
through the last three innings pretty well. Getting from 4 through 7
on the days Glavine, Reyes or Campillo can't go long is the hard part.
