Always missing that power bat.


Power wasn't the issue...they finished 2nd in the NL in
HR's in '96,'97,'98 and 4th in '99

Javy,Chipper,Andruw and Galarraga all hit 40+ at one time or another for the Braves.

The biggest issue in the playoffs was the lack of clutch hitting and inability to manufacture runs ...yea, occasionally the BP let them down but they still had some very good bullpen s over the '14 year run.

Maybe I worded it wrong. They missed that star player in the field and plate to push them over the top. Pitching was there. Fielding was fine. But Mr clutch in October was missing.
