Braves endure woeful April

A month that was almost historically bad was, by and large, no fun for Braves fans.

On the plus side, baseball is most definitely, indubitably back. On the minus side, the on-field product for the Atlanta Braves was nearly historically dreadful in April 2016. To put a bit of a point on it: the 2016 Braves squad went 5-18 in April, a .217 winning percentage that ranks behind (ahead of?) only the 1988 team and its 3-16 record to start the year as the worst month in Atlanta Braves history. It nearly goes without saying that the Braves had the worst record in the majors in April, but there it is anyway.
