Chipper Jones Graph
Here's a graph of Chipper Jones's probability of hitting .400 after each day the Braves play. The X axis show day number, of if the Braves play a double header, both games are rolled into that day. For example, 50 isn't the 50th day of the season, it's the 50th day the Braves played. Putting the dates didn't fit well, and my software left gaps when Atlanta had a off day.
Also, for some reason Excel keeps putting the X axis at the top of the graph when I try to switch to a logarithmic scale. Still this should give you a good idea of how hot Chipper was before the 0 for 5 Friday night. Click on the graph for a larger view.

Update: Brian Harper was able to convert the data to a log graph. Many thanks! Each step up represents a ten-fold increase in the probability.
