The MLB schedule is winding down, with teams closing in on the season’s final fifth. With a plethora of divisional games in September, the Braves’ slate against contenders is also close to an end. This weekend, the Braves will play in St. Louis. After that, their only faceoffs against contenders will be a trip to Seattle, a couple of series with the Phillies, and a showdown at home with the Mets in the season’s penultimate series. But, while it’s fun to look ahead, the Braves can’t skip past this impending scuffle with the Cardinals, who lead their division by 5.
