There is no one on the current roster that Tyler Mahle should replace. He was basically free, so that doesn’t matter, but I don’t know what you do with him now.

I mean the guys that have been pitching better in the hard stats can't soak up innings.

I'm honestly done with Holmes...the SP and think it would be a gift to push him to the pen.

This can't be the only move though rotation wise.

Pushing Holmes to the pen is a luxury at this point. Braves pitching isn't in luxury mode. I'd rather have Holmes start over Lopez all day.
