Statis-pro Brewers Sweep Braves - 2nd in NL and Over 3-year Win Total

 The Braves pulled off a 3-0 win against the Phillies in our game between the one team playing much better in Statis-pro vs the team playing much worse.

The Statis-pro Atlanta Braves beat the Phillies 3-0 to temporarily move into 4th place at 23-19. However, the Brewers then destroyed the Braves 7-1 to get credit for a 3-game sweep and drop the Braves to 23-22 to cling to the last of 6 playoff spots just a half game ahead of the Reds and Phillies who are both .500.

As the standings and remaining matchups show at the bottom, the Braves still have a good shot at our playoffs with Strider going against the Cubs, while all 4 NL East teams still need to play the league leading Dodgers.

While the Braves 6th place standing is better than this season, it is worse than their record over the past 3 years where they have the 4th beat NL record with 255 wins behind the Dodgers 276, Brewers 270, and Phillies 264. Here are where the teams rank in Statis-pro vs where they rank over the last 3 years in actual MLB record.

Our Statis-pro 2025 projected cards often yield seasons with results somewhere between the current season and the current season. When a player's OPS changes more than 100 points or ERA makes a huge change from what was projected we do make adjustments to those cards, but only halfway to leave the adjusted card halfway between the projected stats and actual current season.

This year is no exception, while the Braves are much worse this year, they enter our next game against the Brewers with the 4th best record (255 wins) in our Statis-pro league and their combined record over this and the past 2 seasons is also 4th.

In fact 12 of our 15 teams have the same or are just one off of their 3-year rank through tonight's games. The Mets are the one team playing much better in Statis-pro while the Phillies and Diamondbacks are the only two playing much worse in Statis-pro.


Here are the scoresheets from the Braves 3-0 win over the Phillies.
