A college graduate? Physically fit? Willing to strike a pose with children and cameras? The Braves may have a job for you.

The team has an opening for team mascot.

The job, according to the job description on the Braves' job board, requires more than prancing around the stadium for 81 games. The representative of the Braves brand must have good business acumen and will be in charge of managing more than 200 appearances throughout the year.

The Braves move to SunTrust Park next season.
