If I had to pick my two favorite baseball teams, it would be the two teams I've followed since I was a youngster, which are the Atlanta Braves and St. Louis Cardinals.
Up until about a month ago, both teams were solidified with leads in the NL East and NL Central, respectively.
Lately though, the Cardinals have been on a slide, while the Braves have been doing just enough to hold onto their lead.
It will be interesting to see how the Cincinnati Reds do with the division lead in September, seeing as they haven't come close to even SNIFFING the postseason since 1999, where they lost a one-game playoff to the Mets.
And maybe the Braves are back on top, who knows.
My bet is that unless they meet in the NLDS, they meet in the NLCS.
