However, it’s not the good teams the Braves have struggled with through the first three weeks. Atlanta has already played three teams that have competed in
The epidemic of pitching injuries in the game of baseball is something that has to be addressed, but it’s much easier said than done because the cause of these injuries is up for debate.

The Hawks season ended on Wednesday night, as they were trounced by the Bulls in the play-in tournament. It was the third consecutive season that Atlanta found themselves in the play-in tournament.
