Okay.

You'll be going into it without Lane Thomas, who's going to go on the injured list today.

I want a chance to pitching Nerd out for a minute on an adjustment that we noticed in the Rays series that Atlanta could absolutely steal to improve one of their probable postseason starters.

But before we do that, let's begin with the series... that was Braves lost two out of three to Tampa Bay, seven to one, seven to two in games one and two, and then they won three to one.

And we're not going to recap all three games, right? But there was a couple of main observations that came out of the series.

Nerdy, okay.

I think I'd like you to go full nerdy on

it.

Yes.

All right, okay.

Nerdy.
