Other than the usually 18+ games played per year against the Miami Marlins, New York Mets, Washington Nationals and Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East and the home and away series with every other National League club, the Braves will face off against the American League Central in interleague play next season.

Given the Atlanta Braves performance of late, and the uncertainty surrounding their final season in Turner Field next year, it is difficult to project if the Braves will be in a position to contend for a division crown or even a playoff spot.
With John Hart and John Coppolella’s predilection to shake up the roster on almost a weekly basis, it way the Atlanta Braves will constituted next season remains unclear. There are personnel on the team right now will probably remain with the Braves next season, but most likely the roster and the pitching staff will be in constant flux before the team’s move to SunTrust Park in 2017.
Regardless of the sour taste in the mouths of Atlanta Braves fans as a result of this disastrous season, it is still fun to speculate about what series we will circle on the calendar as MUST WATCH television. Here are the most intriguing series in the 2016 season for the Atlanta Braves:
