As we wait on the other NLDS matchup, let take a look at some expert picks for the Braves’ 2020 postseason.

B/R: Wrong NLDS matchup, but got the # of games right so that’s cool

ESPN: Were not the WCS favorite among the staff, but the staff did mostly agree that the winner of the Braves-Reds would win the NLDS so at least there’s that

The Athletic (part 1):

Rosenthal + Carig - got the marlins losing in the NLDS right, but wrong team
Bowden - oof
Law - only one here to pick the Braves in the WCS, but missed on the NLDS pick

Athletic pt. 2:

McCullough - pulled a Keith Law with his NL picks
Posnanski - his pick of the Cardinals in the WS almost discredits picking the Braves to beat the Reds
Sarris - hopefully the Padres come back so he at least gets half of the NLCS
Greer - oof

Athletic pt. 3

Borowski gets her own tweet in this thread for getting the NLDS matchups correct, but she’s not the end of the thread because she picked the Marlins to advance to the NLCS

Athletic pt. 4:

Best for last. @emmaspan went 7/8 on WCS picks and by the end of the night could be 3/4 on NLDS picks. The kind of stuff you like to see out of the managing editor for @TheAthleticMLB. Hope her NLCS pick ends up being wrong though.
