No surprises, and almost all of these games were in our master 2011 Grapefruit League schedule, but today the Atlanta Braves announced a full 2011 spring-training schedule.
You can view the full schedule here.
Braves’ pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report to camp on Monday, February 14, with their first workout set for the following day. The rest of the Braves players are scheduled to report on Friday, February 18, with the first full-squad workout slated for February 19. This spring marks the 14th year that the Braves will train at the Wide World of Sports complex, consistently ranked as the one of the best spring training facilities in the country by Baseball America.
Atlanta will play a total of 18 home games at Wide World of Sports and will play two games versus the Minnesota Twins at Turner Field in Atlanta on March 29 and March 30.
