Atlanta Braves All-Time Roster

This is the Atlanta Braves all-time roster. Players are eligible based on seasons after 1901. The roster consists of one starter and one bench player for each infield position and three starters and three bench players to fill the outfield position. Hitters had to have a minimum of 1,500 plate appearances. For pitching, I selected five starting pitchers and three relief pitchers. Starting pitchers had to start at least 75 games during their time with the franchise to qualify. Relief pitchers had to accumulate a minimum of 150 innings pitched to be eligible.

  1. The Braves are one of the oldest and in my top 5 greatest starting pitching staffs ever and perhaps the greatest number of 3B. Their biggest weakness is at catcher and at 1B where most other teams are very strong.

    1B Freddie Freeman, Fred Tenney
