Here’s how the Braves will line up to kick off this four game set against the Dodgers:. There are a few notable things in this lineup. First, and foremost in hilarity, is that Whit Merrifield is back in the lineup despite suffering something akin to a fractured foot. The reporting was that he “could” return for the series against the Dodgers, and now that series is upon us, and Whit Merrifield, broken foot and all, is in the lineup and hitting ninth. I know it’s Friday the 13th and all, but “starting guy with broken foot” is the wrong kind of scary for this team at this time.
