    The Braves salvage a game against the Dodgers behind yet another outstanding start from Bryce Elder, something that has become an expectation at this point. The expectation around baseball is that Elder will eventually get El Kabonged by the regression monster, but I'm not so sure that's the case. Not only do I think what Elder is doing is sustainable, but I also think the very idea that his results are surprising says more about us as fans than it does about Bryce.

Spencer Strider wasn't as electric as we've seen him, but there is a good reason to believe the shaky (for him) starts are a thing of the past after some postgame comments.
