Same can be said of the Pirates, I know their record isn't as good as the Braves and they've dropped off the last couple of weeks but 5 of their starting lineups avg is way down and four of the starting line up are in Uggla territory as far as obp goes. Their relying on pitching specially Hanrahan and getting their hits when there needed.
As you said the Braves starting rotation and specially their bullpen is keeping them in games along with Brian McCann and Freddie Freeman.
