    With their starting pitching the Mets can cause problems for anyone.

    The Mets' offense is an embarrassment, but that SP could get them far.

    I hope I'm wrong, but I think the Nats are about to go on that 10 or 15-game tear everyone has been waiting for. They're healthy and beginning to click.

    Hopefully, we can weather it and get by them.

    Phillies just took 5-3 lead in bottom 8th on Asdrubal Cabrera 2-run homer.

    LOL. Cabrera 2-run homer and the Phillies are up 5-3.

    I am so insanely ready to play them at the end of the year. Hopefully we can shut them and their annoying fanbase down, for good.

    I tend to listen to the Mets' announcers when we play NY. Both their radio and TV guys are effusive in their praise for the Braves in general but particularly Acuna and Albies.

    It's a huge contrast from 20 or so years ago when all their media people could ever say was, "who cares if the Braves beat us; how many World Series have they won?"

    With the Mets starting pitching, if they had any semblance of an offense, they'd be dangerous. Give respect; get respect.

    On paper, I think we have the pitching advantage in 3 of the 4 games vs nats. Really need to get a split at worst

    Unfortunately given scheduling (in particular, looking at the Red Sox-west coast trip coming next month), I'm honestly not sure the Braves are going to be within range for it to matter what happens in those games.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Braves have pitching advantage in all the games but Scherzer/Folty, just split and it's a win.

    Philly also starts September with 12 games vs the Marlins and Mets, division may be out of reach unless Washington gets absurdly hot.

    It sucks but Braves one loss this series cost them ground in the standings. Miami has been a pushover vs Philly and about to be swept after Philly took one in Boston too.

    Washington and Philly play a home/home 3 game series each this month, that will help some.
