Braves

[7059527176]

I was pretty surprised to see nobody had started an Atlanta Braves thread here seeing that they are the most cheered for team in TN. I personnally am a huge Braves fan- I'm really enjoying this season seeing young talent like Charles Thomas and Johnny Estrada emerge and lead this team to the top of the division. I'm a little concerned because the Phillies and Marlins and Mets all made big deals at the deadline, while the Braves only picked up one reliever, but I think with a 4.5 game lead and them playing as well as they are, they will win their 14th division title in a row. So, any other Brave fans out there, what do you guys think about this team?

i think oakland2001 should be posting in here sometime. Big Braves fan. Me on the hand...i can tolerate them. Not a big fan.

Huge Braves fan here. I think we're in good shape for a strong run to the playoffs, and hope to make it down for a playoff game since Knoxville isn't an overwhelming drive away from Hotlanta. I'm loving the current winning spell!

well what can i say?!?! the braves look like they are back to their usual selves, back in 1st place with a comfortable lead

[goldenboy]

Does anybody know who has the best record in baseball and the biggest lead in their division? :justwrestle:

[Guest Oakland]

yeh the cardinals do, but dont worry the braves have a whoopin saved for them too

[redbaron515]

Dont be so sure about that...Cards will take 2 of 3 from the Braves. Just you watch.

[Guest Oakland]

the cards are good, but the braves are H O T! the braves have won or split their last 11 series and i dont see the cardinals doin it either. but who knows by the time, the braves get to the cards they maybe off this hot streak, althought thats highly unlikely

Arent we cocky, lol.

[Guest Oakland]

well when you have won 12 division titles in a row, you tend to be cocky

[redbaron515]

lol, well, i think that streak is due to be broken.

[Guest Oakland]

maybe so, but it wont be this year . but as far as the mets makin those deadline deals, it looks they were makin those for the future, not neccessarily to make a run this year, anyways it doesnt matter with them all but out of the race. look for the phillies to continue to slide and for the marlins to make a strong run at the braves, they and the cubs were the big time winners of the trading deadline
