The Atlanta Braves saw yet another win slip away Thursday afternoon with a 4-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. Atlanta has now dropped two straight games since getting back to the .500 mark with a win in the series opener Tuesday. The Braves havent spent a day this season above .500 and it looked like they were about to break through Wednesday before Luke Williams walked things off against Will Smith in the ninth https://www.atlantagearshop.com/Marcell_Ozuna_Pillow_Cover-419. Atlanta had another chance to get back to .500 Thursday but again watched a 3-1 lead turn into a 4-3 loss in excruciating fashion. For a multitude of reasons, things just havent clicked for the Braves this season. A lot of those close games that we have seen them win over the past three seasons have g the other way over the first two months of the season. There has been a ton of adversity, but that was also a trademark that the teams of the past three seasons have largely overcome. As frustrating as it has been, it is important to maintain some perspective. This isnt a 60-game regular season anymore. There is plenty to be concerned about Atlantas 29-31 record, there are still 102 games remaining in the regular season. There is still a long way to go. With that said, there are some issues that will need to be addressed. The bullpen is a logical starting point but the offense has been inconsistent. Travis dArnaud is likely to return at some point, but the lineup is likely going to need another addition. Whether that is filled internally or via trade, is still to be determined.
