1/04/24 | Braves' Tyler Matzek perfectly highlights nightmarish offense -- 'felt bad for pitchers'. The Atlanta Braves came up short in the playoffs for the second straight year after winning the 2021 World Series, but there's no doubt that their offense was the most lethal in the league throughout the regular season.

Matzek missed the entire 2023 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery, but he got a front-row seat to the most high-powered offense in the league every single night.
