I don't remember the Braves losing to anyone last season who may actually win less than 40 games all season. It's a weird sport though.

I have a good friend who is a Reds fan and I distinctly thinking along these lines when the Braves split a 4 game series with them and they went on to start 3-23 and he was like “at least we are clearly as good as the Braves.” If you do the math that means we lost 2 games to an abysmal team that was 1-21 against the rest of their schedule. Now they went on to lose a merely horrible 100 games instead of the record loss pace they were on, but still. It happens.
