The Atlanta Braves announced their lineup for this afternoon's game, posting the card to their official account.
The club has been navigating a stretch of rotation shuffling heading into the contest. AJ Smith-Shawver was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett and slotted into a six-man rotation arrangement, while Chris Sale's most recent start was pushed back before he was lined up for a Friday outing against the Brewers. Grant Holmes also picked up a start in the interim.
The actual lineup card — the names, order, and starter — is linked in the club's post but not reproduced in the available material, so specific positional details remain unconfirmed here.
What to watch
With the six-man rotation in place and the bullpen a piece lighter following Tyler Kinley's release after a DFA, how Atlanta deploys its pitching staff game to game is worth tracking as the roster settles.
