I wouldn't say always, no. The Braves offense sucked last year mainly because of injuries down the stretch. The offense this year doesn't have much of an excuse. I would say the main concern for the Braves over the past decade has been speed. Ever since we lost Furcal, no one has been pesky at the top of the lineup. Prado is a great at getting on, but he would do so much better in the two hole.
Fredi shouldn't be batting Heyward 6th and McLouth 2nd. I understand wanting to keep the top of the lineup "fast", but it really isn't working out. The offense will pick up though.
