Hibernation Mode, Braves Scheduling Division

On the theory that someone actually likes my occasional missives (coop is just being polite, Alex R. has to uphold Eli pride, and tfloyd is lost with me in a nostalgic psychological reverie) Ryan has asked me to say something in lieu of a recap, since the schedulemaker (for years it was Katy Feeney, daughter of Chub) gave the Braves two days off in a row. Every year baseball would produce an article describing how fiendishly difficult it was to make a schedule; all the constraints had to fit together in some fiendishly perverse way that meant that for some reason there was just no alternative to the Braves playing in Wrigley in April rather than Turner Field.
