Weren't the Braves were 10½ games ahead of St. Louis at the end of August. Statistically there's was probably worse but ours definitely hurts more.

They are both colossal collapses. However, no team had higher expectations this year than the RS. Not nearly as many picked the Braves to make the playoffs. A lot of writers and baseball people picked the Red Sox to win the World Series. the Braves probably finished where they were supposed to finish. No team in the last 100 years underperformed like the 2011 Red Sox.
