Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Atlanta Braves.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.
Last year, the Braves went in with high expectations, and although they made the playoffs, they were swept in the opening round by the San Diego Padres.
There was one elevation and one new entrant.
As always, we present our top five, which saw a change based on the new structure:
1. Hank Aaron
2. Warren Spahn
3. Kid Nichols
5. Greg Maddux
You can find the entire list here.
Ronald Acuna Jr. was injured a good chunk of the year, and remains at #28.
Ozzie Albies moved up three spots to #42.
Jeff Blauser returns to the list at #47 with the new algorithm.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Last year, Atlanta had a great year, but disappointed in the playoffs, which has been a pattern for them over the last 35 years. The 2023 Season, gave us two new entrants and one elevation.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
1. Hank Aaron
2. Warren Spahn
3. Kid Nichols
4. Greg Maddux
You can find the entire list here.
Outfielder, Ronald Acuna, exploded on to the list with an MVP season, debuting at #24. Think about this for a minute: Acuna (who we had at #52 last year) comes in at #24 on a team with over a century of history!
Second Baseman, Ozzie Albies, joins the list, debuting at #45.
Starting Pitcher, Max Fried, went to #47 from #50.

Last year, the Braves added another post-season, but were unable to win the pennant. As this organization is well over a century old, breaking the top 50 is difficult, and there is only one new entry with no other fluctuation.
As always, we present our top five, which had no changes.
1. Hank Aaron
2. Warren Spahn
3. Kid Nichols
4. Greg Maddux

The only new addition was Pitcher, Max Fried, who makes his first appearance at the tail end of #50.
It is noteworthy that Ronald Acuna and Ozzie Albies were very close to making the Top 50.

There was minor tinkering on the list due to the changing values from Baseball Reference.
One major jump took place as Freddie Freeman, the reigning MVP, rocketed from #19 to #13.
We have a significant debut, albeit from a player who hasn’t played in over a century. Jack Stivetts, who was an excellent hitting Pitcher arrives at #40. We had forgotten to take account his competent batting, which accounts for his high rank.
We welcome your input and commentsand as always, we thank you for your support.
Not only are we comfortable saying that Warren Spahn was the greatest Pitcher in Braves history he is in the top ten all-time and the greatest left-hander ever.
