The outcome of many of these land battles depended on marching strength. The number of mules available controlled the train that supported an army on the move. The belligerent buying from a larger agricultural area had more and better horses available. The US armies had better and more varied equipment from 1863 onward.
The US logistical system got stronger and bigger as the war proceeded.
After June 1863 Gettysburg and Chickamauga became the limits of what the Confederates could accomplish. The achieved tactical victories that had no strategic consequences. What a waste of manhood!
