The '''2008 [[Atlanta Braves]] season''' was the 43rd in [[Atlanta]] and the 138th overall. The Braves attempted to reclaim a postseason berth for the first time since [[2005 Atlanta Braves season|2005]]. They were once again skippered by [[Bobby Cox]], now in his 19th season (of his second stint) managing Atlanta. As a result of [[John Schuerholz]] taking the position of team president, the Braves entered the offseason with [[Frank Wren]] as their [[general manager]].

← 2007 Seasons 2009 →

The 2008 Atlanta Braves season was the 43rd in Atlanta and the 138th overall. The Braves attempted to reclaim a postseason berth for the first time since 2005. They were once again skippered by Bobby Cox, now in his 19th season (of his second stint) managing Atlanta. As a result of John Schuerholz taking the position of team president, the Braves entered the offseason with Frank Wren as their general manager.

The team wore a patch on the right sleeve "BEACH" in honor of former Braves player and bench coach Jim Beauchamp, who had died after the previous season ended. [1]

2008 saw the departure of two of the team's longtime radio and television announcers. Skip Caray died on August 3, while Pete van Wieren announced his retirement on October 21. Both men had been broadcasting for the team since 1976.
