Well, outside of a rough stretch in June and an underwhelming trade deadline, this Braves team has been cruising in 2026 and has the second best record in baseball. They still probably need some bats to step up (Austin Riley, Sean Murphy, and Ronald Acuna, looking at you) and the emergence of at least one real playoff starter from the prospects and/or Tyler Mahle to be considered true postseason threats outside of variance, but they are getting the job done quite well in the regular season. Getting the bye and being able to set the pitching up would be huge for this roster, enabling the Braves to line up Chris Sale twice in the NLDS. They have stiff competition in the Brewers and Dodgers though, so that will be a tight race to watch for the rest of the year.
