# 2015 Atlanta Braves season

The 2015 Atlanta Braves season was the Braves' 19th season of home games at Turner Field, 50th season in Atlanta, and 145th season overall.

## Offseason

The Braves offseason began in the final week of the 2014 season. The Braves were officially eliminated from the postseason contention on Sunday, September 21. On Monday, the Braves announced the termination of General Manager Frank Wren and appointed John Hart as the interim general manager. The Braves signed Hart to a three-year deal to become the Braves President of Baseball Operations a month later. Hart continued to fill the role of general manager throughout the offseason with much help from assistant general manager John Coppolella.

## Season summary
### Opening Day

| Position | Name |
| Center Fielder | Eric Young, Jr. |
| Second Baseman | Jace Peterson |
| Right Fielder | Nick Markakis |
| First Baseman | Freddie Freeman |
| Catcher | Christian Bethancourt |
| Left Fielder | Kelly Johnson |
| Third Baseman | Alberto Callaspo |
| Shortstop | Andrelton Simmons |
| Starting Pitcher | Julio Teherán |
After an offseason filled with many trades and roster movements, the Braves began the season with Julio Teherán as the starting pitcher for the second consecutive year. They took an early lead in the first inning after a Nick Markakis single scored Jace Peterson. Miami tied the game in the third inning, but a late Markakis RBI scoring Eric Young, Jr. was the difference. In the team's first save opportunity since trading closer Craig Kimbrel, newly appointed closer Jason Grilli pitched a perfect inning and the Braves won 2–1.

### Regular season

After optimistically winning the first five games of the season, the Braves' early success was short-lived. The team finished April with a 10–12 record. They had a winning record in May (15–13), but struggles within the young roster made quality starts and wins few and far between. A July 11 injury to closer Jason Grilli sealed the fate of the struggling team, lacking the skills necessary for a successful starting rotation. An 8–20 August followed, and after additional movements and trades, the team's starting rotation was virtually unrecognizable from how the season began. Shelby Miller, once thought to be a crucial starting pitcher to the team's success, lost a franchise-record 24 consecutive starts, finishing the season with a 6–17 record after receiving a run support average of 2.38 (ranked tenth worst in MLB history).
The Braves finished the season with a 67–95 record, third-worst in the MLB, ahead of the Cincinnati Reds (64–98) and Philadelphia Phillies (63–99).
