Chadwick Tromp is starting at catcher today, the first time the Braves are using this lineup with both Kelenic and Tromp. Everyone but Tromp and Kelenic has faced Ryne Nelson before and had success in tiny samples, except for the Braves' middle infield duo.
The Diamondbacks added Kevin Newman to the active roster and placed Geraldo Perdomo on the Injured List. Newman will start at second base, and Tucker Barnhart will take over catching duties for the team.
All Arizona starters except Blaze Alexander and Barnhart have faced Sale, with amusingly Suarez facing him but never in the Statcast era. Sale has handled most of these players well in small samples, except for Grichuk and Newman.
