The Atlanta Braves started the season hot and haven’t cooled off. The roster is relatively stable and prospects are coming. but is it strong enough to challenge for a division title?
As the roster stands today, they’re pretenders.
Atlanta Braves overview
The Atlanta Braves are the surprise team of the league so far. They’ve played the hardest schedule to date, playing the Nationals dead even, beat the Phillies six times in nine games and the Mets five times in six games.
Against the two out of market challengers the Braves met so far, they took the Rockies series two games to one and played the Cubs dead even (should be up three to one, yes I’m still mad about MLB Replay ineptitude) with two games to go.
