Can anyone come up with a reason NOT to bring Snelling up to start in Atlanta tonight? He's scheduled to go for JAX. He's been throwing strikes. There's a double header on Saturday. And 28 games in the next 29 days, which suggests that a six-man rotation would be in order.

To be super clear because it's an unusual situation, this is a 5-game series!

Make your predictions accordingly...

An excerpt from my post here, in case you haven't gotten to it:

"Snelling does not have any professional experience pitching on four days' rest. That box almost always gets checked before a prospect is plugged into a regular MLB rotation spot, so if his next outing comes on Tuesday, we're officially on call-up watch."
