It's not surprising the A-T-L are top dogs, despite their second consecutive early exit at the hands of the Philadelphia Phillies - who, themselves, are around the Top-5 on the board - because the Braves are an extremely well-built team consisting of multiple All-Stars on long-term deals, chief among them being Ronald Acuna Jr., Austin Riley, Matt Olson, and Sean Murphy. The road to the World Series apparently will run through the National League, as the early favorites are the Atlanta Braves, who had the best record in the MLB at 104-58 in 2023, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
