Episode 36: Braves Cling to the Divisional Race with a Split in Philly

When we recorded this episode we were 1.5 GB, but as of publishing it, we are 1 GB. It can happen just like that. (That is when the Mets don't play but you win, but still). We knew the last series against the Mets was gonna be essential but OH MY it is about as vital as it can possibly get. The Braves bats were dragging their knuckles into Philly after a sluggish performance against the Nationals, but then life sprung out of nowhere the day that Olson finally gets a day off, which seemingly rejuvenated both him and the team. On that same day, deGrom was absolutely crushed by the A's of all teams and what seemed to be a beeline for the WC has turned back into a heavyweight bout for the NL East. Exciting and anxiety-inducing stuff happening in Braves Country right now.
