The Braves need to trade for another starter i'm not sold at all on Folty

He went 6 and only gave up 1 run. He was fantastic tonight, but the offense needs to get it going again.

A couple of starting pitchers i wouldn't mind seeing the Braves pick up in a trade would be Jake Odorizzi 3-2 with a 3.17 ERA of the Minnesota Twins and Daniel Mengden 4-4 with a 3.30 ERA of the A's

Folty was a little shaky with control, but the loss wasn't on him ... it seems the Baby Braves have a weakness with off-speed pitching.
Hopefully the staff see's this and is working on it ... as I recall that's pretty much what happened to Jeff Francouer, the inability to hit off-speed pitchers ...
