The Braves inability to be a consistent team is completely maddening and the #1 reason why they’re pretty much out of it this point. Yeah, I know 4 1/2 games back with a little less than a month to play isn’t insurmountable but there ain’t no way they’re going to leapfrog four teams to win the wild card. To do so, they’d have to put together some kind of winning streak longer than three games. This team, however, has shown on numerous occasions that they don’t know how to do that.
At this point, I’d rather watch the Rockies than the Braves. At least the Rockies seem to be able to get up for an important game or series. Taking 2 of 3 off the Padres this weekend was huge. Let’s hope they can keep that going against the Phillies and Marlins this week.
