    Its cool. Still not out of it. Still some baseball to be played. It may not look GREAT for the Braves' chances, but they're not out of it by any means. :)

    I'm glad you guys beat us in Philly with your 3 starters against 2 rookies and a second year guy, you haven't won the division yet and even if you do we will still get to play you in the playoffs

    The Braves and the Phillies both have to make the playoffs and then win the first round...a lot of games and time left for that to happen.

    Cox had every opportunity to adjust his pitching staff so that the Braves starters could throw against the Phils. Manuel did it on purpose...it's not a coincidence that it worked out that way...

    Braves losing to the Nats has them currently on the outside looking in.

    Martin Prado is done until 2011

    Somehow we find ways to win when we arent supposed to and lose when we are

    We shall see. 3 games left. 1 1/2 game lead in the Wild Card.

    Inclulbus WE ARE! .. Marshall!

    Padres or Giants one of the two need to sweep each other, and ATL needs a win against phillies to pick up the wild card, such a scary friggin' weekend. :(

    Congrats Braves. Padres lose 1-0, ouch for them . You need 1 win and 1 loss from SD to clinch the wildcard. Looks like it will be Philly vs Cincy and Giants vs Braves in the first round.

    Padres had a HUGE lead in the west and choked hard. REAL HARD.

    the fact that Greg Norton is on the first page of this thread makes me want to throw up, and to see that he did something positive shocks me

    Yeah, but the Padres had a huge lead and it wasn't like the Giants had the best record in the league over the last 3 months, or led the league in complete games/shutouts, had the best record in 1 run games, 29-15 or had the fewest walks for a pitching staff. That was the Phillies.

    Im just saying if the Braves played like they were supposed to then this final series should have decided the division
