MLB Opening Day: Division Predictions + Dives Into Braves, Mets & Phillies | Atlanta Braves Podcast

On MLB Opening Day, host Lindsay Crosby previews the 2026 season with division and playoff context, focusing heavily on the wide-open NL East race between the Mets, Phillies, and Braves, using FanDuel odds and roster breakdowns to highlight each club’s strengths and questions, especially around health and pitching depth. He briefly surveys the rest of the NL (Dodgers favored in the West; a competitive NL Central led by the Cubs with the Brewers, Pirates, and Reds in the mix) and then runs through the AL, calling the AL East wide open while noting the Yankees’ offense, the Red Sox’s depth, and key additions for Baltimore and Toronto. He also highlights Detroit, Kansas City, Seattle as the AL West favorite, and fun storylines like the A’s offense. Crosby closes with programming notes, including daily Braves matchup previews once lineups post.
