Not every team in Major League Baseball has played as well as the Chicago Cubs, as one of the other National League contenders, the Atlanta Braves, has been one of the most disappointing teams in baseball.

When the Braves entered the year, the expectation was for them to compete for a World Series.

Instead, they're already 13.5 games back in the National League East, sitting in fourth place, even below the brutal Washington Nationals.

With the Braves struggling as much as they have, many expect them to potentially sell at the deadline.
