Summary
Chris Sale is getting a strategic five-day break to stay sharp for his next start against the Brewers, with management prioritizing his health amid other pitching woes. Already elite this season with a 2.30 ERA in 13 games, Sale’s last 10 outings have been even more dominant at 1.88 ERA, and his fastball’s averaging 97+ mph — the fastest in years. The only downside? His offense has been struggling to score, leaving him to carry the load alone. The Braves need to step up if they want to keep Sale at his peak.
