Well, here’s a cheery note. Sports Illustrated picks the Atlanta Braves, who had a lot of things go wrong last season and still won 89 games, to win 82 in 2012. (I’d offer a link, but SI.com hasn’t posted one yet.) This total, in SI’s estimation, will enable the Braves to finish fourth in a five-team division.

SI’s projected National League East finish:


Phillies, 94-68
Marlins, 89-73 (wild card)
Nationals, 84-78
Braves, 82-80
Mets, 75-87

More glad tidings: SI sees the Braves finishing with the 10th-best record in the 16-team National League and the 17th-best (tied with the Kansas City Royals, actually) in baseball. I believe I can speak for us all when I say: Yikes. http://blogs.ajc.com/mark-bradley-blog/ ... e-nl-east/

:lol:
There's no way the Nationals finish ahead of us, I don't think Miami will be ahead of us either

that's about right depending too much on young players but I think they are shorting us some though
