Padres Open 2025 Season vs. Braves March 27

The Atlanta Braves are seen as strong contenders for the World Series in 2025, according to MLB.com, ranking them just behind the Dodgers. Despite injuries hampering their performance last season, the Braves are expected to be healthier this year, which could significantly improve their chances. Key players like Ronald Acuña Jr. are anticipated to return, bolstering an already formidable lineup that finished last season with an 89-73 record. The Braves' pitching staff is also viewed as improved, which could contribute to their success in a competitive National League East. Meanwhile, the Padres are gearing up for their season opener against the Braves on March 27, featuring a variety of fan-friendly events throughout the weekend. The Padres will host activities including discounted drinks and a KidsFest for families attending the games.
