Braves

[msstate7]

After taking 2 out of 3 vs Nats this weekend, the braves now have a 6.5 game lead over the Nats. They're now 7-3 vs the Nats on the year. Tim kurkijan of espn still says the Nats are the better team and will catch the braves. I don't see it. Sure the Nats have Bryce Harper on 15 game dl and werth out, but the braves best pitcher (beachy) is about to be back. Also take into consideration that bj upton, Heyward, and uggla are all under .200 right now. They will warm up. I could be way off, but I don't see the Nats catching us

Not to mention that stasburg left his last start in the second inning with shoulder/oblique injury. Don't think they put him on the DL but that is never a good thing. This just goes to show that ESPN is all about making a dollar. They actually just laid off lots of ppl and as I hear it are on a hiring freeze. Cant be to much going on up there in Bristol. They love beating a dead horse though
