It may be a little soon for such a piece. The Atlanta Braves have yet to start its series versus their NLDS opponent (most likely the St. Louis Cardinals), the first battle of what will eventually be a long and challenging war.
And that’s IF the Braves can overcome its opening series, something the organization hasn’t done since the 2001 postseason when the Braves swept its NLDS matchup against the Houston Astros (they would go on to lose to the Arizona Diamondbacks in that year’s NLCS).
But this Braves team possesses certain qualities they haven’t had since perhaps the early 90s (the franchise’s last title came in 1995).
