Going into this exciting and final month of the regular season, I had one particular stretch of games circled on my personal calendar. I’d understand if you guessed that the multiple games against the Phillies would be the ones I’d be paying attention to the most. While those games are likely going to end up being the most important since it’s a direct competition between the two top teams in the division, that’s not what I was focusing on. Atlanta’s proven that they can go toe-to-toe with the Phillies and they can take care of the rest of the division as well, so the NL East-centric part of September wasn’t a huge worry for me as a fan.
