Arizona Diamondbacks
For the second time in three starts this season, Luke Weaver couldn’t make it through his final inning on the mound. He was pitching well against San Diego, having given up just a solo shot to Manny Machado though the first six innings, before back-to-back doubles KO’ed him in the seventh.

Weaver is still just 25 years old (he’ll turn 26 in August) but the fact that the Cardinals gave up on him finally after coveting him for so long does tell you that his career may not be destined for the sort of greatness it was once thought to have a few years ago.
Through three starts this season, he’s struck out 15 and walked just four. He’s also kept it in the park relatively well, having allowed just two long balls thus far.
But he’s giving up over a hit per inning and hasn’t shown the tenacity needed to pitch out of trouble yet. His ERA is up over five in the early going.
Atlanta Braves
Contrary to what you may initially think upon seeing the 9–6 final score from Atlanta on Tuesday, Max Fried threw well for the losing side.
Once again, Fried got through six innings and only gave up two runs. He struck out only three but still managed to pitch around seven hits. He’s made three really good starts now and; in fact, the two runs he allowed on Tuesday were the first two of the season.

Atlanta’s bullpen gave it up, though. The ‘pen was a concern last season but the Braves hung on to the division title, partly because the competition was so bad and partly because the rest of the team really picked up the ‘pen, which actually wasn’t terrible, despite peripheral numbers that suggested it should have been.
Brian McCann will come off the Injured List on Wednesday and it’s likely he’ll be in there against the right-handed starter on Thursday.

Touki Toussaint can be tough but even if he is, he won’t be out there long enough to keep the D’Backs away from that fragile ‘pen.
