Coulda Been a Contender

The Braves are "Coming off a 1-5 road trip that included one of the two wins they've gained in their past 14 games..." (the Marlins have "won just nine of their past 22 games".)

Atlanta has "won just seven of their past 25 home games and just one of their past eight series played in Atlanta." (MLB)

Although, the Braves have a 4-4 record in Tuesday home games this year. The Marlins won their last 2 Tuesday away games, but they lost all six others this year.

In the last five years the Braves and Marlins both have 2-3 records on August 26th. Atlanta is 7-5 against the Marlins so far this year.

It's Jair Jurrjens (sounds like a hair conditioner) verses Scott Olsen tonight.

UPDATE: Phils beat Mets. Fish now 6 back of the NL East lead.
