For the first twelve games, the Braves were 7-5 and slightly underperformed their xwOBA by .005. After that point, they went 29-12 and outperformed their xwOBA by .007, producing a wRC+ advantage of 9 before and after. The team has managed to keep the HR/FB “monster” contained while generating strong results against multiple pitchers. A specific incident involving Walt Weiss tackling Jorge Soler is linked to the Braves’ pursuit of wins, described as chasing down victories in the same way. Reynaldo Lopez’s performance is noted as worsening after the dustup, with later struggles and no return to 2024 form. The Braves hold a 9.5-game lead in the NL East and are expected to keep pulling away.
"Let's hope that they run away from everyone."
