Anibal Sanchez took a shutout bid into the seventh inning of Saturday's win over the Brewers. The rejuvenated veteran's ability to consistently command his cutter has proved beneficial as he has posted a 2.59 ERA in seven starts since returning from the DL.

Now the Braves stay at home with rest, while the Diamondbacks are out of a divisional series in the Coors altitude and have no rest. The day off also means a needed refresher for the Braves bullpen, as they should all hand available tonight. Arizona's Zach Godley is very mediocre as his numbers in second thru the order and beyond are pretty terrible, so the Braves are the play here on Friday night.
