We are now about ten days away from opening day for the Atlanta Braves. After the way that the season ended last year in the one game wildcard game, the fans are ready to start a new journey to a what is hopefully a championship season. I hope that the we can get through opening day without random trash being thrown on the field because of a bad call by umpires.
You certainly will find no doubt that the season ended abruptly due in large part to a terrible call of the umpires. However, I was at that game and that call was not the primary reason the Atlanta Braves lost that ballgame. The game was lost by a mixture of not hitting with runners on base and poor defense; you can't put that form of performance available to both you and expect to go home with a victory. Ask any fan of the team and they give you a different opinion.
The expectations for the Atlanta Braves are extremely high this present year and that is understandable. These people were a lot more aggressive this winter than in they have been in recent times and the result is the potential for a rather potent offense. In fact, this will likely to be the probably one particular powerful offense that this team has in well over ten years. With that potential also comes a lot of swings and misses, the Atlanta Braves could potentially approach the all time record set by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2010 with 1,529 strikeouts.
The Atlanta Braves are getting to be athletic, their outfield is regarded as the best inside the entire game plus they are going to hit for power. The main question mark comes with all the starting pitchers. When they can get a combined 60-65 wins from their starters they will stand a beneficial chance of winning the division and knowcking from the Washington Nationals. There is a high probability so it will take upwards of a hundred victories to attain a first place finish.
This division is going to be a dog fight that could very well go down to the final weekend of the season to determine a winner. Everyone concedes that this is pretty much a two team race with they exception of a few folks that think the Phillies are capable of coming out on top. While the Phillies will probably end up with a better record than last year, they appear to be destined for a third place finish. This season is going to be a lot of fun to watch and I can't wait to get the season under way. It is going to be a tough fight and a long season, but the Atlanta Braves are built to be a great team this season so let the games begin.
