Braves so far..

okay

so Braves are 3-3 after six

They have scored 48 runs
They have allowed 47 runs

TEAM Batting Stats
11 Home Runs (3rd in MLB)
28 Walks (3rd in MLB)
63 Hits (1st in MLB)
.292 AVG
.372 OBP
.500 SLG

So the offense is there.

but

the starting pitching is getting beat up

TEAM Pitching Stats
7.76 ERA (2nd worst in MLB)
1.88 WHIP (walks and hits per inning– 3rd worst in MLB)
Allowing 65 Hits (worst in MLB) & .401 OBA (4th worst)
47 Runs (worst in MLB)
44 Earned Runs (worst)
only 3 Home Runs actually, which is the 2nd lowest amount..

so once the pitching relaxes like it will, i have pretty good faith in a good run this year!
