The Atlanta Braves would have likely faced an even bigger roster crunch for the postseason if not for injuries to Ender Inciarte, Johan Camargo and Charlie Culberson. The Braves had been hopeful that Inciarte would be an option for the Division Series but he was ruled out earlier this week after he continues to experience discomfort in his injured hamstring. Atlanta was also hopeful that Camargo might be able to return but he also has not progressed the way they were hoping after suffering a fractured shin.
I took a look at the pitching staff earlier today and predicted that the Braves will carry 12 pitchers against the Cardinals.
