Four! That's half their fucking lineup.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yeah but the problem is the other 4 guys in their lineup are Ryan Church, Daniel Murphy, Luis Castillo/Alex Cora, and Brian Schnieder..
So while they have 4 studs, they balance it out with 4 below average players leading to a lineup that is overall a lot weaker than you would expect given the star power..
I like the Braves to bounce back. They really boosted their SP and I think Kotchman is due for a big year as well..
Phillies are the class of the division until someone knocks them off though.
