Five Atlanta Braves on 2024 All-MLB balloting

Five Atlanta Braves on 2024 All-MLB balloting

On the final day of the 2024 MLB regular season Atlanta Braves And New York Mets Despite tomorrow, MLB has released the list of players on the ballot for the 2024 All-MLB teams. The announcement of the first and second team players will be held in Las Vegas on November 14, 2024.

The Braves have five players on the ballot; three pitchers and two position players. Pitchers include National League Cy Young Award hopeful Chris Sale, fellow starter Reynaldo López and closer Raisel Iglesias. The two position players were designated hitter Marcell Ozuna and first baseman Matt Olson.

In their first season in Atlanta, Sale and López were anchored by a Braves rotation without Spencer Strider for nearly the entire season.

Sale had his best season since 2017 and has the possibility of winning the National League pitcher’s triple crown for best ERA, most strikeouts and most strikeouts.

López returned as a full-time starter for the first time since 2019. He responded by making 25 starts and finishing the regular season with a 2.00 ERA.

Iglesias was among the best late-inning relievers in all of MLB with 33 saves in 62 games and a £.706 WHIP in 68 innings.

Olson enters Sunday’s contest Kansas City Royals one home run and two RBIs, missing a 30 home run, 100 RBI season. He also played in every game the Braves played this season. Although his numbers are different from his record-breaking 2023 season, he is still one of the best first basemen in the National League. Olson was a second-team All-MLB selection last season.

Ozuna, who has played in every game the Braves have played this season, has back-to-back 40-home run seasons with Atlanta. He has flirted with leading the National League in batting average and will rank in the top five in many offensive categories. He will likely finish as a top-five National League MVP.
