In light of Gerry's preview, do the Braves make the playoffs YET AGAIN in 2006?

I have it at 4-1 that the sun will rise tomorrow, too.
    Sports bettor terminology confuses me, but I show it as "plus or minus DAWN."
    My head says the Mets beat the Braves this year.  And I think Leo Mazzone leaving hurts them a lot (he's worth between 0.25 and 0.5 ERA across the team according to a number of studies, that's ~5-8 wins).  But I'm not officially going to pick against the Braves.  Fool me once, shame on you;  Fool me twice, shame on me;  You can't fool me a third time as I'm not picking against the Braves until after they lose.  :)
    If the Braves don't manage to pull out the Division, their only real competition for the wild card is going to be one of Philly or the Mets - the Cards are the only scary team in the Central and the West stinks, for the most part. 
Assuming they don't completely self destruct.
