With MLB Opening Day just two days away, the Atlanta Braves set their initial starting pitching rotation for the 2025 season. Atlanta’s 2024 season was marred by injuries, some of which are carrying over to this year, but the Braves have still put together a strong rotation.

While there are valid concerns for a couple names in the lineup, the upside has the Braves' lineup ranked among the best heading into Opening Day

Shortstop Zach Neto was the Angels’ best offensive player last year, hitting 23 homers and stealing 30 bases; the 24-year-old, who is recovering from November shoulder surgery and will start the season on the IL, has a chance to become a star, as does Logan O’Hoppe, who is developing into one of the best catchers in the league.
