The Atlanta Braves are generating some serious buzz as we look ahead to the 2025 season, with FanGraphs projecting them to win 93.5 games and giving them a 14.9% chance of clinching the World Series title. This puts them in a prime position, just behind the Dodgers, who are projected to win 97.6 games.
But here's where it gets interesting: projections are just that—projections. Remember last season when the Braves were touted as a juggernaut only to face unexpected challenges? It raises the question: how much stock should we put into these numbers?
With key players like Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider expected to return to form, and the bullpen needing to step up in the absence of Joe Jiménez, can the Braves truly live up to these lofty expectations? Or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment again?
Let’s talk about the competition. The Dodgers may be the favorites, but what about the rest of the league? Are there any dark horses that could disrupt the Braves' path to the postseason?
And what about the human element? Injuries, slumps, and unexpected performances can change the course of a season in an instant.
So, what are your bold predictions for the Braves in 2025? Do you think they can overcome the odds and make a deep playoff run? Or will they fall short of expectations once again? Share your thoughts, experiences, and insights!
