The Braves have been impressive in the NL. They trail only the Philadelphia Phillies with an overall record of 21 games above .500 on the season, and have played at an even higher level of late at 10-4 over their last 14 games. Arizona was a hot club winning seven straight, but have now settled down losing their last two. This team has been prone to losing streaks, dropping three or more games in a row six times this season. As he ages, Derek Lowe has proven to be a more valuable weapon for the Braves when he is coming off extended rest of 5 days, where the Braves are an almost unbeatable 9-1 in his last 10. Arizona has not fared well in Atlanta in recent games at just 2-5 in their last seven. Back Atlanta here.
