Tomorrow's match-up between Glavine and Maddux should be interesting. Both will allow runs early on so the question will be who has the bats and bullpen to overcome. The Braves have the arms to send in for Maddux if he gets too flighty. I don't think the Mets have what it takes to stop the bleed. When they took Glavine they forgot that he needed a strong outfield, really strong, to make it work. The Braves seem to have found a nice mix of fairly good pitching (with exceptions for the iffy 7th and 8th innings they have struggled with this season), highlight-film fielding (Giles and Furcal are amazing) and bats that are singing like never before (last night became the second team ever to lead off with 3 homers).
Anyone going? Braves/Mets games in NY just aren't as much fun since John Rocker left.
