month. Lowest ERA for a month since the beginning of time lol. Now if they can get some consistent hitting. Will they break our hearts in the post season as usual? Uggla and Upton need to be more consistent. Hard to rely on pitching alone to win a seven game series. Always need a run or two.

As a Braves fan I love it, but no way that's going to last.  Just ride this streak as long as possible, and hope that they have a sufficient lead when this staff comes back down to earth. 

We all knew that BJ and Uggla were going to be black holes in this lineup.  What troubles me more is Chris Johnson's near season-long slump, and the bullpen's poor start.  The rotation's hot start has covered up all those warts so far, so let's hope those guys get their act together soon.  Because again, the rotation is not THIS good, and sooner or later they're not going to be able to carry the entire team on their backs.
