Miscellaneous
Let’s get one thing straight right off the bat – Dallas Keuchel isn’t Justin Verlander from a couple of seasons ago. He’s not going to show up and immediately turn into one of the game’s elite pitchers again. He’s going to have his issues. Mr. Keuchel won’t be perfect. But the Braves won’t ask him to be. They will simply ask him to give them innings and give their offense a chance to win games for him. If he does that, the Braves’ rotation, which has been thoroughly disappointing, might start to round into form.
