By now, most of Braves Country and a lot of the baseball world is at least aware of the lore from last season. After playing a calamitous baseball game on May 31 in order to lose 8-7 in extras to the Diamondbacks, the then-defending World Series Champion Atlanta Braves fell to 23-27 and had finally reached their nadir in the NL East race that year. The loss put them 10.5 games behind a Mets squad that had stormed out of the gates and while it’s now very clear that you can’t win a division by the time June rolls around, you can certainly play yourself into losing it.

After a 3-3 road trip, the Atlanta Braves will return home to begin a six-game home stand with a three-game series against the New York Mets. On the surface a 3-3 road trip may seem pedestrian. Atlanta dropped two of three to an Oakland A’s team that entered the series having lost 11-straight games. However, they rebounded well with a series win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are among the best teams in the National League.
