The Atlanta Braves are trying to decide what route they're going to take regarding their pitching staff as they get set to take on the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLDS round of the MLB Playoffs.
Their two aces Zack Wheeler and Aaron Nola each pitched gems in the Wild Card round, providing the team with stabilization at the top of their rotation.
The same confidence the Phillies have about their staff might not be what the Braves are feeling one day before the highly anticipated matchup.Max Fried was placed on the Injured List before the end of the regular season with blister issues that plagued him during his younger years. Spencer Strider is the ace of this staff and will get the Game 1 start, but in his lone postseason appearance he gave up five earned runs in 2 1/3 innings against Philadelphia."So it’s a given that the Braves aren’t going to use more than three starters,"That will put a lot of pressure on a bullpen that ranked 11th in the MLB with a 3.81 ERA during the regular season.
