Episode Details

Atlanta Braves defy spring skepticism as PECOTA and FanGraphs projections reveal championship potential. Despite injuries to Hurston Waldrep and Spencer Schwellenbach, the Braves are projected as NL East favorites with 91 wins and hold the third-best odds to win the World Series. Host Jake Mastroianni dissects why advanced stats remain bullish on Atlanta, spotlighting stars like Ronald Acuña Jr., Matt Olson, and Austin Riley, plus pitching depth featuring Chris Sale and Bryce Elder.

Key discussion points include the impact of health on player projections, potential lineup vulnerabilities at second base and shortstop, and how Jurickson Profar’s role could shape the offense. Recent injury updates, rumored trades, and how the Braves stack up against NL rivals like the Dodgers and Mets set the stage for a pivotal season. Can Atlanta’s depth and superstar trio keep championship hopes alive amidst adversity?
