Due to the Nationals having COVID-19 issues, the Braves have had their own schedule mixed up to accommodate the Nationals.
#Braves haven't announced rotation plays yet, but I'd expect it'll be Smyly as scheduled Tuesday, then Fried in one game and bullpen game in the other half of the doubleheader Wednesday. But should get that info soon from team.

Fortunately, the Braves will get Thursday off as they travel back to Truist Park to take on the Phillies at home. At first, it was looking like Washington could be down nine players — four positive tests, and five close contacts. It’s unclear who will be available, but I imagine this delay was in part to attempt to get their full roster ready for the series.
