The Braves will put these 4 starting pitchers against us:
Tim Leary 18-10 3.29 ERA 5.2 WAR
Terry Gardner 17-9 3.44 ERA 3.5 WAR
Mike Brandt 12-13 4.32 ERA 4.2 WAR
Blue Moon Odom 9-6 4.66 ERA 1.2 WAR
Dennis Lamp 10-10 45 saves 3.88 ERA
They have 2 pretty significant injuries in their lineup. Former Angel Reggie Smith broke his leg after 100 games and his out for 1 more week. Injury-prone SS Ken Oberkfell is done for the year with a torn calf muscle. At 26 he's already been on the injured list for: Hamstring pulls (3 times, 20 weeks total), herniated disc in back (2 weeks) left ACL tear (10 months) broken left ankle (5 months) and now his calf muscle tear. Despite all these, he's hit .303/.368/.404 with average war adjusted for 162 games of 5.1. So we will face this lineup until Smith is back after game 6:
