This is the third in a series to see how the NL East has changed and how those changes may impact the Atlanta Braves in 2021.
In 2019 the Washington Nationals broke through from being unable to get past a first playoff round and dispatched all opposition in taking the World Series. Then 2020 happened and the first of all was relegated to last place in the NL East, a full nine games behind the Atlanta Braves after playing just 60 times.
