The RDIF problem just went away.

Post by Mike

The shoring up of innngs 7,8 and 9 just made our Run Differential problem shrink... significantly.

To date the Braves have a +59 RDIF in comparison to the Dodgers +165. Dig into those numbers and you'll find some relief. The Bravos have scored 585 runs while allowing 526. Meanwhile the Dodgers have put 595 runs on the board, but only allowed 430.

Our new bullpen strength should close that gap significantly.
