You may not have noticed the Atlanta Braves all that much in the second half. No one would blame you if you haven't.
When Atlanta acquired Matt Kemp in a deal with the San Diego Padres on July 30th, they were 36-68, 32 games under .500. On August 20th, they lost their 7th straight game, falling to 44-79, 35 games under the break-even mark. At that point, they were 29 1/2 games out of first place.
So yeah, we weren't talking much about the Braves. And hey, we still aren't, really.
