This past January, fellow Tomahawk Take writer/editor, Alan Carpenter, wrote about what kind of odds the Atlanta Braves were working with going into this upcoming season. He reported a pretty grim prediction for the Braves at that time.
In Carpenter’s piece, he provided projected win totals for several different teams, including the entire NL East division. As a refresher, here’s what was reported, from Oddsshark.com:
- Washington Nationals — 87.5 wins
- Atlanta Braves — 84.5 wins
- Philadelphia Phillies — 84.5 wins
- New York Mets — 84.5 wins
- Miami Marlins — 65.
