The Atlanta Braves lead their division and have the best record in the National League. Even with that in mind, there are ways the Atlanta Braves can improve during the rest of the 2018 season.

The Atlanta Braves are playing well but there are plenty of ways they can be improved.  Watching the Braves this season has been surprising. The team has woken up from their rebuild earlier than expected and winning with regularity.

Ozzie Albies, Freddie Freeman, and Nick Markakis have led the way early this season keeping the lineup moving. Albies has taken over the leadoff role bringing his explosive energy.

Freeman has been consistent while Markakis has been the biggest surprise so far this season. The veteran appeared to be aging and has had his best two months to date with the Braves.

He is at the top of the League in hits and has flashed power the Braves haven’t seen since he joined the team.

Still, there are plenty of ways the team can get even better. Here are five ways the team can improve in 2018:
