Atlanta has won five consecutive NL East titles since 2018.
They have reached the NLCS twice and even won a World Series title in 2021.
Last season, they won 101 games and barely beat the New York Mets to top the NL East.
The story of this season is different.
They are on pace to win more games, and have a huge lead in the NL East.
Two years away from their World Series title, the Braves look ready to make another run at the Fall Classic, only this time, they’re on pace to win just over 88 games during the regular season.
Their lineup includes powerful batters like Ronald Acuna Jr., Ozzie Albies, Austin Riley, Sean Murphy and Matt Olson, all of whom are helping to carry the load for a team that has the best record in the National League and is not far away. Is. behind the Rays for the best record in baseball.
