All’s not Schwell as Braves look to do something against Mets
The Braves don’t exactly give the most interesting quotes to media, pretty much ever, which only makes it funny that coming out of the All-Star Break, their party line was, “Our best baseball is ahead of us.” Well, that may still be true, but it certainly didn’t happen coming out of the All-Star Break, as the Braves shuffled their rotation to push their better starters back and have basically been blasted from here to eternity/kingdom come by opposing bats. While I don’t know what the new party line is, I did get a hearty chuckle out of Travis d’Arnaud telling the media after yesterday’s game, “There’s definitely a sense of urgency,” amid a skid that’s seen the Braves allow a starter to get charged with seven runs twice in three games before pulling him. If that’s what a sense of urgency looks like, combined with the fact that Chris Sale has pitched fewer games coming out of the All-Star Break than the combination of Bryce Elder/Allan Winans, or Charlie Morton, then I imagine if the Braves weren’t acting with a sense of urgency at this point, they might simply not have made the trip to New York in the first place.

A Cardinals-Mets trade to fill St. Louis' outfield needs
The St. Louis Cardinals need some help from the right side of the plate. Their production against left-handed pitching has been lacking and the lineup is also very left-handed heavy.
