The Braves are doing something with their bevy of long relievers and pseudo-starters, but what that something is, is unclear to me. Is it clear to you? Grant Holmes was today’s scheduled starter. Martin Perez was “in the bullpen” but hasn’t made an appearance since his start eight days ago. Perez has a 54/111/108 line […]
