    Are you boys nervous? I wonder; Can Pedro save you?</p>

    It's only 1 game but... I'll take it. </p>

    Go Braves!</p>

    Why would I be nervous when we are in first place, and have been all season?

    That could have been due to the heat.. OR.. they're very nervous about the NL East race.

    Braves are looking good but i still think that the Mets will come out on top<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Pedro made a start today in the minors and got beat up... so idk how helpful he is going to be. I know that we need John Maine and Oliver Perez to keep pitching like they were in the beginning of the season</DIV>

    Wrong. If you look, The Mets have only been in 1st continuously since Mid May. The Braves, untypically, started offhot and shared the lead until that point.

    Sweating Bullets that is....Braves took 2 out of 3 @ Shea. </p>

    From ESPN;<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Mets led early but Chipper Jones</font>put Atlanta ahead in the fifth with a three-run homer off the scoreboard in right-center. The shot was estimated at 470 feet -- it hit about one-third of the way up, right next to his name in lights -- and was his 19th career homer in 83 games at Shea Stadium.

    Jones has a .310 average with 53 RBIs in the ballpark, and likes hitting there so much that he named one of his children Shea.</p>

    Braves are 13-3 when Chipper homers in Queens</div></p>

    The Braves are one of the few teams I would hate the team for which I root to be up on. They have a great regular season track record.</p>

    Make that 5 games. Wright & Alou have been red hot, Reyes is on a tear stealing bases, Beltran is getting hot, Castillo is proving to be the right acquistition, El Duque & Glavine have picked it up & it's only a matter of time before Maine & Perez get back into gear & when Pedro gets back, forget it. Even Mike Difelice is making moves!!! Tex might help for a little while, but the back of Atlanta's rotation needs to step up if they want the wild card. By the end of september, the Mets will be looking in the rear view mirror, only to see the image of Atlanta & Philly get smaller & smaller...
