Despite a few good signs from Austin Riley and Sean Murphy, the Braves offense reached a new low in Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays. The offensive performance spoiled the return of Spencer Strider, and leaves fans wondering if this team can ever get it going.

The Braves start the season 0-6, Jurikson Profar gets suspended for a performance-enhancing drug, and Reynaldo Lopez is out for at least the first half of the season with a shoulder injury. It is the worse possible start for a team that was supposed to be one of the best in baseball. What has happened to this team? And can they rebound?

As the season is almost here, join me as I once make some bold predictions about the Braves season. Which players might vy for the MVP, Cy Young, all-star appearances, and more? And which players might lose their jobs by the end of the year? The bottom line is the Braves should bounce back from a rough, injury-filled 2024 season and be big-time World Series contenders. It should be a fun season to watch.

What team will win the NL East? Have the Phillies really overtaken the Braves as the favorite to win the East or are the "experts" forgetting just how good the Braves are when healthy? Can the Braves legitimately hope to beat the Dodgers? We'll discuss that and more in a full playoff prediction episode.

Sean Murphy goes down with a cracked rib for 4-6 weeks, opening the door for top prospect Drake Baldwin to start the year in the big leagues. Is Baldwin ready and what might happen with the Braves' catching situation beyond the first few weeks.

Perhaps we forget too quickly how good this team can be. But early in spring, the signs are there that 2024 is in the rear view mirror. Jurikson Profar is already showing the type of player he can be, while Austin Riley and Matt Olson are looking much better than they did last spring. Meanwhile on the pitching side of things, A.J. Smith-Shawver and Spencer Schwellenbach are providing confidence that the pitching staff may have all the depth it needs. Not everything is positive, and it's very early, but after last season, we should take every positive thing we can get.

We all lived through a difficult Braves' 2024 season. Let's think good thoughts. What good things could break right for the Braves this spring? From good health, to surprise performers, to some needed development from some young players, spring training could set up things nicely for the Braves to be one of the best teams in baseball in 2025.

Other than adding Jurikson Profar, the Braves have done next to nothing this offseason despite having a team that can compete for a championship. Why? Part of the reason may be the long-term outlook. Join me as I break down the Braves roster situation over the next few years, where there s

The Braves finally break radio silence and sign all-star left fielder Jurikson Profar to a 3-year, $42 million deal. Profar, the newest Brave from Curacao, fits for many reasons, not only filling an obvious need in the outfield, but bringing on-base skills and a low strikeout rate to a team that prioritizes power. Profar is coming off a career year, so the big question is, will the changes he made last off-season that worked so well be a permanent fix. If so, the fan favorite from San Diego may just become a fan favorite in Atlanta.

Is anyone else annoyed, confused, or downright over the Braves' offseason?

The Dodgers have dominated the baseball offseason for the 2nd consecutive year, while the Braves haven't signed or traded for a single major league player. What is going on? Is it actually possible that no major moves are made by Alex Anthopolous and the Atlanta front office? While that is unlikely, it is getting harder to remain patient as spring training approaches and all of the Braves' biggest competitors get better.
