Everything has lined up well for the Atlanta Braves… so far.
So far, so good: the Atlanta Braves have taken advantage of virtually every opportunity afforded them by the Miami Marlins and stand just one win away from moving on to a National League Championship Series matchup against — almost certainly — the Dodgers.
But they aren’t there yet.
At this point, the Braves have done all we could ask: win. However, we’ve also now reached that tipping point where the lack of starting pitching depth becomes more problematic going forward.
