Braves preseason #1 7 to 1

I love my Braves, but i am a little shocked to see them as the Fav to win the world series this year.
It will be a great outfield, if you can get the Upton boys to run to the ball instead of coasting. These guys have alot of talent but there is a reason their last teams didn't try to hard to keep them.
Bullpen is probably the best in the majors.
Starters are strong but don't match the Nats, tampa, or phillies. Atleast Phillies top 3 anyway.
I am glad to see that kind of respect for the Bravos, just thought it would be around 12 to 1.
It could be that a few teams that are normally at the top are looking at down years, Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies and STL.

Any thoughts?

Am i totally wrong?

I hope i am!

HUMMPHHH!!!

Hey big guy...I know its going to be damn near impossible to repeat, but there are some pretty good arms out here, both in
the starting rotation and in the bullpen.
Then you have the two Brandons, Crawford and Belt, coming back with a lot of confidence.
Is Scuttaro too old? Probably not.
Then there is Pagan, the Panda, and Buster, etc.
Of course as you know, injuries always play a big part.
Giants and Braves always play each other tough. Should be another great year.
