Not really.

With the number of division games that they braves will still have to play 7 games can be made up pretty easily....but the team has to hit in key minutes.

Playing like this it is. Can't pitch, can't hit and the defense isn't that great either.

He was a hero in the NLCS but I was really hoping they did something other than him and Duvall considering both are 4th OFs.

Duvall was always coming back since he was under control. I think they nabbed Rosario when it was clear Soler wasn't going to be a match financially. Soler isn't really setting the world on fire either though.

Just can't win when all of your OF is batting below .200 and 2/3 are below average defensively.

Thanks. Hopefully, having Acuna back will help. I don't trust this outfield or the fifth starter. Elder command sucks. He need to be sent back down to Gwinnett.

I always get crap here for my impatience but really only been wrong about 1 or 2 of the arms so far but I just don't see it with him.

Lacks any swing and miss with the velocity of a 34 year old Maddux but none of the control.

The worst thing about the start to the season is that ...   The braves are close..

Yeah there have been some laughers ( going both ways) but the whole thing about baseball being a game of inches has ring very true.

We still continue to see rockets off of the bats of the braves end up right at defenders  and the other team just sent to find every hole  in the defense.

You have to think that it evens out a bit more as the seasons goes on but right now the braves are not playing well enough to overcome that and they are not playing well enough not overcome self inflicted wounds.

Case in point...... really the difference bin the game today was the dropped ball by Arcia in left......he makes that catch then the ball game is completely different....but the braves were not good enough to overcome that.

Luckily it is April and the braves still have 90% of the season left to play but there are things that they're going to need to fix pretty **** soon.
