Upton and the Braves look to continue their good fortune when they open a three-game series versus the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks on today. Atlanta has won seven in a row and eight of nine thanks in large part to Upton, who is 10-for-37 with seven runs scored during that stretch to improve his paltry batting average to .210. Atlanta hurler Santana has kept the Diamondbacks at bay in three career starts, registering a 0.82 ERA while limiting the club to a .184 batting average.</p>

The Sens' defense hasn't been as porous as the Leafs has, but goal tending has been an issue for them. The offenses haven't been the problem, as the Leafs average 2.74 goals a game and Ottawa 2.83. However, when they are a combined 90-67 to the OVER then you're going to lose some games.
