It's safe to say that the Atlanta Braves have not had the start to the 2025 MLB season that they were envisioning. With Wednesday evening's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Braves dropped to an abysmal 0-7 on the season, now standing as the lone team in the league without a win on the campaign.
The biggest issue for the Braves (and there are a lot to choose from) has been their hitting, or more accurately, their inability to do so. Exhibit A of this issue has been third baseman Austin Riley, who has suffered through a horrid start to the year at the plate.
