Atlanta Braves won Monday even though right fielder Jason Heyward was scratched from the lineup due to a bruised left foot and replaced by Nate McLouth. Heyward is day to day. They will counter with rookie Brandon Beachy, who has not allowed more than three runs in his last nine outings while going 3-0 with a 2.52 ERA. He last pitched July 8 when he gave up two runs over six innings in a 3-2, 10-inning loss at Philadelphia. Beachy has never faced Colorado. Atlanta Braves is enjoying its longest win streak over Colorado since winning all six meetings in 2003.
Colorado Rockies beleaguered ace has posted consecutive victories, allowing two runs over six innings Thursday in a 12-3 win over Milwaukee. He has not won three straight starts all year. They have lost three straight and nine of 13 as they fall further out of contention. That includes a four-game sweep in Atlanta from July 4-7 in which they were outscored 24-8. Colorado Rockies Ubaldo Jimenez, Tuesday’s starter, may be on the trading block. Jimenez is signed for the next three years at just under $18 million, and says he wants to stay in Colorado.
