After a rain soaked series against the San Diego Padres, the Atlanta Braves will hit the road for a critical road trip that will set the course for the remainder of their season. Atlanta will begin a four-game series in Philadelphia Thursday before moving on to face the Mets in a five-game series that includes a doubleheader. That will take them up to the trade deadline where they could add more pieces to the roster or sell depending on where they are at in the standings.
The Braves are coming off of a frustrating homestand.
