    Braves-Phillies Saturday discussion.
    The pitching matchup here it's incredible but here is my thoughts...
    Hanson is 10-4, 2.52 era. He has been amazing over his last five games (all 5 wins) during which he's put up an era of 1.97 and struck out 38 in 32 innings.
    Lee is 9-6, 2.92 era had a decent June of 5-0 .21 era. He struggled against Toronto gave up 6, which makes me wonder is he still on fire. His career era vs Atlanta is in the 6's.
    I surprisingly give the pitching edge to ATLANTA because I'm not sure if Lee is still hot I know Hanson is.
    Offense
    Apart from yesterday the braves had been on a tear with the bats. Unfortunately yesterday happened unless Uggla and Heyward step up I dont see today much better.
    Phillies are all beat up and suffering big from injury but they had 7 hits from 6 7 and 8 spot batters and couldn't score if they hit like they did yesterday they should score more than 3.
    I give the offensive edge to PHILADELPHIA here even with being banged up

    Overall I like Atlanta I think Hanson is to hot and Lee is worn out should be under and close wouldn't be shocked with 3-2 or 3-1... BEST OF LUCK!!

    I expect a low scoring game too similar to friday and will probably be decided by the pens again

    there is nice value on Atlanta though

      I like braves bullpen slightly better... Kimbrel is incredible and can close very well

          Philly is the best team in baseball. Braves just beat up on the mediocre Rockies. ALWAYS fade a team after sweeping. Easy play in this series. Take Phillies in the whole series!

            Lee is pitching on extra day's rest. Last game against Toronto he was pitching on short rest. I expect a bounce back game for him.
