There are a number of storylines that were objectively true about the Braves and the Cardinals:
-The Braves have the better bullpen.
–Nick Markakis is here because he’s veteran leadership. A heady player.
–Dallas Keuchel has playoff experience. He’s the guy you want on the mound if you don’t trust your young pitchers to pitch.
–Marcell Ozuna and Kolton Wong are probably not guys that are going to beat you. Ozuna has been ice cold in September and Kolton Wong has been injured, and wasn’t very good when he was healthy.
