The Atlanta Braves are currently stuck in a two-game losing streak, and yes, their young superstar is out for the year with an injury. But don’t let any of that fool you. They’re still red hot.
That minor skid broke up a nine-game winning streak, and they’ve won 16 of their last 20 games to catapult to the top of a division that has just been begging for a team to take control of all year.
The San Francisco Giants are also red hot. They’ve got a five-game winning streak in the works, with 19 wins in their last 24 games.
