    Easier opponent: San Diego or Houston?

    http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sp.../29braves.html

    Braves are 1-5 vs. San Diego and 5-1 vs. Houston.

    "No disrespect to San Diego," first baseman Adam LaRoche said, "but I don't think anyone looks forward to facing Roger Clemens, Roy Oswalt and Andy Pettitte."

    That quote right there pretty much sums up my feelings. Bring on the Padres!

    Believe it or not, I don't think the Braves have an easy opponent.

    Houston, cause San Diego could probably do some damage offensively away from Petco. And that Giles, Klesko, Loretta are proven quality hitters.

    Yeah, but Clemens-Pettitte-Oswalt could be a dominating staff in the similar manner that Prior & Woods were two years ago. They were unhittable that series.

    Hittable enough to lose games 6 and 7. Clemens isn't healthy either.

    I'd rather take my chances with San Diego..but we're getting Houston, and I'm alright with that. We'll lose to the Cards anyhow..
