Stuttgart, Here They Come!

Uh-oh. Looks like Shelgy's already replaced one of the original teammates, Daria Skrypnik, who was scheduled to compete (and is not injured as far as I know). Guess the Rodionenko's want answers about how genuine her scores are as quickly as possible. As do I! But what do you think about her replacing Skrpynik, who is a beast on bars, but not such a glorified one eventer as Dasha Spiridonova. Skypnik at least had capabilities on beam and floor, though a recent growth spurt seems to have sidelined her realizing that potential. I dunno, I just think Spiri's bars aren't so unique that Skrypnik couldn't perform it, with additional upgrades, if they asked her to (almost all of 'em have the same UB routine already). I wonder what the deciding factor was in replacing one over the other. Or is it simply that Spiri is a favorite?

Davai!!!
