Braves' fatal flaw that will derail hot start to 2024 season

With a month of the 2024 MLB season almost behind us, to the surprise of no one, the Atlanta Braves hold the best record in baseball at 17-6 (.739). The Braves, tracing their history back to the 1990s and early 2000s, along with their recent run, are usually one of the best regular-season teams. Twenty-three games into this season, the Braves have only lost one series while winning six, sweeping three of those. It's unlikely that the Braves are going anywhere out of the top two in the National League East, as their only real competition in the division is the Philadelphia Phillies, who sit at 15-10.
