Colorado and Toronto should have been lay-ups, instead they exposed some of the Braves issues, as our Atlanta Braves fall to tied for 2nd with the Mets in both the NL East (-7) and the last spot of the NL Wildcard race (-).

The second half is here and the hopes for turning the season around are pretty bleak with Reynoldo Lopez leaving yesterday's game, Michael Harris II hitting the 60-Day IL, and Snit putting Duvy in the lead-off spot.  Is there a way to save it? Is AA out o...
