    We need to take at least 3 of four.
    I do like the pitching matchups. Ballpark will be playoff atmosphere.

    Dang right - in the sense of just burying them.
    Do we actually need to for our own good? Of course not. But the sooner we clinch the better.

    Can we please ramp up the cliche usage in this thread? So far we only have ones from the "bury them" and "you jinxed it" lines of cliches.

    We should definitely bury them now in our hand rather than hope for two in a bush.

    15 and 8 plus another day off calendar.
    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    My idle mind wonders that if we overtake the Dodgers for best record, we would have to face Nats/Cubs survivor. Of course, this would be Nats without either Strasburg or Schertzer, but still ...

    You'd still get Stras/Max, Corbin, Stras/Max, Sanchez, Stras/Max/Corbin in 5 games, i'm good.

    I dont see the Braves passing LA anyway, their schedule is alot easier than ours.

    I'm still worried about the Nats. They are hot and we're just the Braves.
