Throughout the entire MLB season, the Atlanta Braves have maintained a dominant presence. Their achievements range from star outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. achieving an unprecedented 30-home-run, 60-stolen-base season to seven different Braves players hitting a minimum of 20 home runs. This performance places the team at the pinnacle of the league across a wide array of offensive categories.

Favorable Schedule While the Braves are facing the 14th-hardest strength of schedule for the remainder of the season, it’s essential to consider the pitching efficiency of their opponents. Looking ahead, the Braves have two series left against the Washington Nationals, who have yielded a league-worst 210 home runs this year. They’ll also encounter the St. Louis Cardinals, a team with the sixth-worst ERA, and the Pittsburgh Pirates, who possess the 11th-worst ERA. Notably, the Braves have had considerable success against the Miami Marlins, hitting 30 home runs in their ten games this season in addition to other favorable matchups.

Potent 7-8-9 Hitters It’s a rarity to witness a team with such firepower and consistency throughout its lineup, but the Braves are an exception. ESPN’s Jesse Rodgers pointed out that the Braves’ 7-8-9 hitters lead MLB in batting average, slugging, and OPS. These three batters have combined for 50 home runs. For instance, the seventh hitter, Eddie Rosario, boasts an impressive OPS with runners in scoring position, ranking 12th in the league. Michael Harris holds a notable 14th place in the MLB with an overall batting average of .290. Their versatility in the lineup is evident, with Harris even spending time in the second batting position, highlighting the dynamic nature of the Braves’ offense and their threats throughout the order.

Consistency in Home Runs Earlier this season, the Braves embarked on an impressive streak, hitting home runs in 28 consecutive games. Even after this streak concluded on July 16, they have only gone without a home run in three games. The team has managed to record at least one home run in 14 consecutive games, showcasing their remarkable consistency at the plate. Throughout the season, they’ve had just 15 games without a home run, with only four of those occurring after the All-Star Game, underscoring their potent and persistent power-hitting capabilities.
