Game Thread 7/25: Braves at Cardinals

Good news everybody! Freddie Freeman is off the DL. Unfortunately, he's not in the starting lineup. Joey Terdoslavich was optioned back to Gwinnett and Daniel Castro and Adonis Garcia were recalled following yesterday's trade.

Today's Lineups

ATLANTA BRAVES ST. LOUIS CARDINALS
Jace Peterson - 2B Kolten Wong - 2B
Cameron Maybin - CF Matt Carpenter - 3B
Nick Markakis - RF Matt Holliday - LF
A.J. Pierzynski - C Jhonny Peralta - SS
Chris Johnson - 1B Jason Heyward - RF
Adonis Garcia - 3B Yadier Molina - C
Eury Perez - LF Randal Grichuk - CF
Andrelton Simmons - SS Mark Reynolds - 1B
Shelby Miller - RHP Carlos Martinez - RHP

Let's get some run support for Shelby, please. The Braves have lost nine of his last 10 starts, and Miller himself is winless since May 17. Since his last win, Shelby has a 3.15 ERA despite going 0-5.

This is the first start for Martinez against the Braves; he has four relief appearances.

Chop the Cards (please)!
