The braves just need a decent LH bat to platoon with Diaz, nobody in baseball hits lefties better than Diaz. Mclouth is a solid CF that will hit .260-.270 with 20-25 hrs and Cabrera is a switch hitter who has a .290 avg leading off (he should leadoff and move Mclouth lower in the order). Up the middle you have two .300+ hitters in Escobar & Prado. Chipper is 1yr removed from a .360 season. McCann will hit .280-.290 with 20-25 hrs. If Glaus stays healthy he should provide 30+ hrs in the middle of the order, and the Braves have the best rotation in the NL East. Without major injuries they should be able to compete with the Phillies and be a serious Wildcard threat.
