After wasting most of his career being stuck on bad teams,

it is great to see Freddie Freeman get to taste the postseason these last couple of years. Here's hoping the Bravos can get hot right now, and take this thing all the way this time around!

I agree and just think if this team had Acuna and Soroka (may have misspelled). The braves are a good team and if you look back at the season and the bullpen would have not blown like 40 games they would have ran away with the division.

They've been pretty good since the all-star break. Their top 3 starting pitchers may be the best of the teams that are left, and bullpen has been good of late. Soler testing positive is going to hurt a bit, but maybe they can weather the storm until he returns. They match up well against the Giants, and have played the Dodgers well this year. If they should get past the NLCS, they match up well with both the Red Sox, and Astros. If they continue to get quality starts, defend, and timely hitting, they have just as good a chance as the other teams.

It would, and like previously mentioned, being without Acuna in particular. Being honest, I wrote them off after Acuna got hurt. To their credit, the GM done a good job of picking a few pieces up to compensate, and those pieces performed well, and fit with the rest of the team. Being a Braves fan since they were terrible back in the 80's, and the fact MLB stripped the All Star game from the city this year, I would love to see them take it all.

If the Braves are going to make a serious run ...

to the World Series, they have to start being smarter on the bases.
Three different times over the last three games, they've run themselves out of scoring opportunities because of boneheaded base running.

Even though replay might have overturned it in this day and time, Justice missing 3rd, and being called out on appeal.
