By Jeff Schafer
Braves Future Looks Bright and We’re Excited…Are you?!?
The run the Atlanta Braves had in September was spectacular to watch. Especially after the long months we all sat through with pain and tears. September gave us hope. September gave us joy. September gave us eagerness. September gave us extreme excitement!!
Spirits definitely picked up after the final month of the 2016 season, but we can’t get too hype. It’s a start, but we’ve still got work to do. We’ve got a lot to look forward to for the 2017 season and we could be in contention with the best of them.
If we ended the season at the end of August, our heads may be hanging a little low this time of year, but the season is 162 games and we play through September!
Can the Braves make the playoffs in 2017? Why the heck not??
Braves General Manager John Coppolella has a lot of work in his near future. He’ll be looking to fill the gaps of a veteran starting pitcher, a catcher, some help from the bench and possibly moving Nick Markakis.
With promise-land within grasp for the Atlanta Braves, we put together a list of five things to look forward to in 2017. Let’s start off with a fan favorite…
Swanson for President? How about that hair!! Man, can’t wait until 2017 and we get to watch this guy night in and night out!
