Atlanta Braves Fan Confidence Surges to Match the Season High

For the first two weeks of April, the Atlanta Braves Fan Confidence was high as Braves nation had an optimistic view of the season to come. With this latest late-season surge the Braves are on, including the current 6-game winning streak, the confidence level has returned to what it was to start the season -- 76%. That is a 10-point jump from last week's number of 66%, and an even bigger jump from the previous week's late-season low point of 49%. This is a good illustration of how quickly the Braves have turned their season around and given their fans hope for a return to the post-season.

I am at a 6 because of several long term issues which include...

1) the manager
2) power hitting
3) Chipper replacement
4) Relief pitching

However, I do like our:

1) Front office (Wren)
2) Starting pitching
3) Farm system
4) Core players (McCain etc.)

On balance because of our long playoff spell and the fact that we haven’t won the big game in about 15 years I’m at a 6.

I’ve been dreading this Marlins series. Those guys play well against us…

fish series

I too am quite worried about thise series chief. I think we have to take em all to have a shot. That rocks series win dampened my hopes a little bit. Wish it didn’t but I admit I’m becoming less and less confident, but I’m wrong quite a bit. Hahaha let’s go BRAVOS!

For this series:

Jurrjens vs. Sanchez
Hudson vs. Vandenhurk
Vazquez vs. Nolasco

I like our chances.

I just about always like our chances with regards to pitching matchups… it’s the hitting I worry about.

by gondeee on Sep 28, 2009 3:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

We’re screwed…we will be facing crappy pitching. That means we are going to have several games of 3 hit ball thrown against us!
