Atlanta Braves announce 2019 rotation and projected lineup

As John noted a few hours ago, the Atlanta Braves sent Touki Toussaint, Adam Duvall, and Dan Winkler to Gwinnett.

Toussaint’s second consecutive rough outing yesterday influenced the demotion, but getting hit on the foot with a line drive in that game played into the decision as well.

He stayed in the game, so nothing’s broken, but something like that can throw mechanics off and cause other injuries. Dizzy Dean’s career effectively ended when he got hit on the foot with a liner.
