Just what the doctor ordered last night, ... any info on Folty's condition ?
On the Harper trade, I would vote no, I'm not sure he's a great lockeroom guy and as was said,I'd rather bolster our bullpen.

All i've read said that Folty had tightness is his right triceps. Hopefully it loosens up.

Soroka !! ... Inciarte's base running blunder could have been significant in a pitchers duel type of game, but I still like the agressiveness on the base paths.

If you were the Braves would you try to make a trade for Mets starting pitchers Jacob DeGrom or Noah Syndergaard? I think the Mets will be selling by the Trade Deadline and they will be available.

Yea Mike, I think I would, depending at what cost. Supposedly we have a wealth of talent in the minors and another stud in the starting rotation could get us on another roll like days gone-by.
