I didn't either, but I thought they would certainly make the playoffs. Still, the offense has under-performed for a good portion of this year, and the Braves don't really have a shutdown starter, so I don't know what the playoffs will bring. Bullpen has been unreal considering they lost Venters and O'Flaherty, so if the offense can hand the game to them late, we could make a run. But I don't think the Braves could handle the Tigers (just from the way they dominated the interleague series).
And yeah, I do believe the Braves have the easiest remaining schedule in the league, so they should get top seed.
