We already had this confirmed directly to us, but hey, have a very long press release:

Basically, Brandon Gaudin and C.J. Nitkowski are coming back as the main booth lads, Jeff Francoeur will be there when he feels like it (a 30-game commitment), while Wiley Ballard and Paul Byrd will chip in from the sidelines.

Former Braves Peter Moylan, Nick Green, and Charlie Culberson will handle pre-game and post-game stuff, which I can’t comment on because I will always just switch to a different game rather than bothering to watch someone talk about the game I just watched where I already know what happens.

On a personal preference level, it’s basically impossible for me to complain because the current broadcast situation is so many leagues better than what existed in the Chip Caray era that I’m eternally grateful for not having to mute the game within the first few batters each time. Gaudin and Byrd definitely enhance my experience, and this crew seems to work well together.

And, before you fill up the comments on the same topic, no, we don’t know of any other carrier deals with BravesVision yet… so if you’re looking to get it via cable or a streaming service, you’ll still have to stay tuned until we do know.
