The 2018 Atlanta Braves won 90 games on the way to the NL East title. By any measure, it was a splendid performance from a team that outpaced preseason expectations and, even if the campaign ended abruptly with a playoff loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, nothing seemed fluky about the team’s regular season showing.
Since then, the Braves added Josh Donaldson (and Brian McCann) to the mix but, in recent days, the hot stove has been silent and the fan base is clearly restless. With that as the backdrop, the good folks at Caesars Entertainment released opening Las Vegas win totals for the 2019 MLB season and the Braves landed at 84 wins.
