The Cardinals have to figure out how to win better on the road if they would like to be seen as a serious threat this year. That is coming from the fact that the Cardinals are playing right around the five hundred mark on the season on the road, but most of the division leaders are well over the five hundred mark and have not really been looking back towards the five hundred mark on the year so far. With the Braves they are starting to fall into the same boat, but the Braves are needing to improve on that same mark when they are playing at home and that could be a little bit difficult for the Braves against the better teams at home.
