Well, gang, I have some bad news. The Braves are not doing too hot at this exact moment: they’re 3-8 in their last 11 games, they’re two games under .500 for the first time since the season-opening series, and they just can’t seem to get out of their own way with terrible tactical pitching personnel decisions. After last night’s disastrous late loss, which starts to kind of blend in with all the other same-y bullpen-oriented defeats, the Braves’ playoff odds are lower than they’ve been at any point since the season’s fifth game. The pitching staff has fared the fourth-worst in baseball, thanks to a next-to-last bullpen performance.
Braves hope to salvage finale, stop skid behind Gausman
