ATL 9, LAD 2

Ugly for the Dodgers, again -- they looked a little lost, in a way they haven't previously, to my eye -- and Justin Turner managed a point but pulled up lame mid-game, while most of the rest of the picks goose-egged. Meanwhile, Mr. Rosario becomes the brightest star in the Victorino-verse with 12! total bases and the Braves cued up Freeman Comes Alive!.

The points:

Albies 1
Freeman 6
Riley 0, for once
Swanson 1

Bellinger 1
Betts 0
Seager 0
Smith 0
J Turner 1
T Turner 0

And with that, we are reminded once again that you don't mess with the Yuhan. Here's the money:

57 Fell 2 and Yuhan 2
48 Cayenne 2
45 Shotwell 1

Everyone else after the jump!

43 Shotwell 2
41 Arbour
40 Crase

39 Bingham 1
38 Stempel
36 Wonsetler
35 Tormey

33 Cayenne 1 and Grove
32 SDB 2

28 Cameron 2
27 Cameron 1 and SDB 1
26 Quinn and Yuhan 1

14 Bingham 2

4 Brady

It's kind of shocking to see how many first-division slates are performing in spite of Turner picks thanks to Seager and Smith (or ATL picks). Mookie also keeping a bunch of folks' hopes alive so far...

...but it's win or go home for the prides of the Ravine tonight. As of this writing, Dave Roberts has not announced his starter, probably because he has no great choices; the Bravos send Max Fried to the hill at 8 ET. It's not looking great for the Dodgers, but I've counted them out before and been wrong. 

See you in the comments for slate-extinction-event kvelling -- and good luck!
