Utley will be out for a while, Rollins, Blanton and Lidge are iffy, Werth is gone, i heard Ben Fransisco will be missing some time, Placido Polanco is nothing special, Raul Ibanez is almost 39, coming off a very off year for him, Howard can hit the HRs, but where will his RBI come from if nobody is one base? Everyone knows he can't hit for AVG, Shane Victorino is seriously overrated, Carlos Ruiz is an average MLB catcher, all they really have is pitching, which is going to bankrupt them in a few years, their bullpin is unpredictable.
The Braves have the second best starting pitching in the NL, thry have the best catcher and second baseman in the NL, We have 3 all star capable outfielders, 2 incredibly young and talented closers in Craig Kimbrel and Johnny Venters, along with a solid bullpen, we even have a great bench, not to mention our up and coming star 1st baseman Feddie Freeman, i think the Braves will do great this year, and Chipper is in his best form since 2006.
*patiently awaits the plethora of Detroit fans to bitch*
Bitch. The Tigers are the second best team in that division on paper. If we get Porcello back in form and our bullpen arms stay healthy I like our chances.

Utley will be aout for a while, but he'll be back, it's March. we dont need him right now to win. <_> Rollins was an MVP 3 years ago, Blanton is a solid starter and Lidge is a solid close, and they both have rings. Polonco is always on base and had our best average of anyone last year Ibanez was 38 last year and hit over 30 HR's. Victorino gets on base, that's all that counts and he comes through in the clutch. Carlos Ruiz is way better than the average catcher when it comes to defense, he may lack at the plate a little, but always comes through big time in the playoffs, and btw they both have rings. Valdez and Francisco have been 2 of the best bench players on any team for us the pas t 2 years. and lets not forget mayberry and brown, 2 great up and coming players. Their bullpen is fine, they have a great staff with Baez, Conseco, Madson, and Lidge. and dont forget, with their starting pitching, they wont have to use the bulpen as much so these guys are gonna be well rested.

This is the part where you went FULL RETARD. 2nd best pitching in the NL? put the fucking crackpipe... Phillies, Giants, Reds, Rockies, all have better starting pitching. the best second basemen in the NL, GTFO man, doe the name Utley ring a bell if you think Uggla is better than Utley, something is wrong with you, you have to stop kidding yourself? great bench? great bullpen? i never heard of any of those guys <_> your starting pitching is old and it will show through the year. you have a few gem young players, but nowhere close to actually competing. and btw, Jones is done, Best form? he's just gonna get injured again, and if he doesnt he'll have another below average year. dude youre obviously delusional for your team, they have no shot aginst the phillies bro, if youre still around in a few months i'll try not to rub it in your face how ridiculosly you used to talk. also, your great manager is gone, theres gonna be some changes and they moght not come easy. man, i thought the mets fanse were delusional, you absolutely insane. Braves wont even make the playoffs, the wild card will come from the central, sorry bro, maybe next year <_>
