Braves Baseball

Can any team be hotter than the Atlanta Braves? With Chipper Jones and Manny Acosta providing the power in hitting and closing, the Braves are on a roll like you have never seen before. As for the pitching, the Braves have currently on the DL Mike Gonzalez, Mike Hampton, Anthony Lerew, Peter Moylan, John Smoltz, Rafael Soriano. These 6 pitchers were figured in to be big parts of the plans this year.

The Braves have enjoyed success on the most recent home stand but it still seems like it is all for naught as they still remain 3rd in their division. There are 2 division that have this tight of a race. The other is in the American League Central where the spread is only 3 games. Of course, there is a lot of baseball left to play and you never know where that might leave our great superstars of the south. All I can say is

My favorite National League team is the Diamondbacks. But like you, I am in awe of the season the Braves are having so far!

It is looking very good for the Braves so far! They oftentimes don't kick into high gear until after the All-Star break!

Rich, this is true and hopefully they can keep this pace up till that kicks in.

Jeremy, I can not see how he would be the worst since the Braves have not been the ones paying him. It is covered by insurance.

True...the Braves don't pay it, but it is still a whole lot of money he is getting and has never really had but one decent season
