The Braves are sharing the wealth of bad closers that they had for a while (Our closers the last few years have been decent to good but there was a stretch I want to say from when Smoltz returned to the starting line up to 2010 where we had a lot of subpar, injured or inconsistent closers).
Glad the Braves are doing well so far this year (last team with only one loss), we'll see how they do through the season with a strong in division opponent. So far the Uptons have been doing well for us. Pau Maholm is also one of two starting pitchers to have not given up a run (the other being Kershaw for the Dodgers)
