Screw the day off. Our favorite pachyderm now has his sights set on Cal Ripken's consecutive games streak.

This team seriously wants to win. This is the first time since Cox retired that I feel like this is a Braves team of the kind I grew up watching.

There is a reason for that, IMO. They now have a manager that engenders tremendous loyalty from his players. Whether you agree with his "strategy" or not, these players would run through a brick wall for Brian Snitker. It's been a long time since a Braves team has played with this type of energy and desire. Snit has many of the same qualities that made Bobby Cox one of the best baseball managers of all time.
