Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
Michael Harris II has had a fantastic series as he has absolutely feasted upon the pitching that the Washington Nationals have served up for him. Hopefully, he’ll be able to take that with him back to Atlanta instead of the IL, as Harris has been removed from Thursday afternoon’s game ahead of the bottom of […]
The year is 1997. Liván Hernández takes the mound for the Marlins in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Braves. Little did the Braves, the fans in attendance, and those tuning in know that they were about to witness one of the most outrageous displays of home plate umpiring in MLB history. Granted, Greg […]
JR Ritchie’s major league debut couldn’t have started much worse. He gave up a home run on very his first pitch. From there, though, he certainly looked like he belonged. The 2022 first-round pick, called up to close out the Braves’ road trip in Washington Thursday afternoon, didn’t just excel in his debut. He set […]
Last night was a very on brand game for the 2026 Nats. The offense was there, but the pitching was not good enough and they made a couple mistakes on defense. With Cade Cavalli on the mound, they will hope to get better results on the mound. They need Cavalli to go deeper into ball […]
The Yankees were a powerhouse team of the late 1990s and the early 2000s, powered by some of the game’s best players of all time. However, they weren’t the only team consistently vying for a World Series championship. The Atlanta Braves were the National League’s elite squad, as from 1991 through 2005, they won a […]
The Knicks play the Hawks in Manhatlanta tonight, with flocks of New Yorkers expected to take over. Don’t get it twisted—Knicks fans in town or not, the folks better get that dub and return home with a 2-2 balance at the very worst, or else. Here’s the latest from around NYK world. Mike Brown On […]
After a two-day hiatus as a designated hitter, Drake Baldwin is back behind the plate and catching the Braves’ series finale at Washington Thursday afternoon. No doubt it’s smart to sneak in some days off and this stretch of 10 games in as many days certainly takes a toll. But it’s good for the Braves […]
The attention the Braves have given to position player prospects has paid huge dividends so far this season with a number of impressive performances already in the first month. First round pick Tate Southisene led off for Augusta with his third long ball of the season, and his .917 OPS on the season has been […]
The carousel of Braves pitchers has been in full effect the last few days. Reynaldo Lopez’s Tuesday start lasting just one inning depleted the bullpen for Wednesday. That in turn led to Didier Fuentes being called to start Wednesday’s game, moving the rest of the rotation’s starts back a day. But when Fuentes lasted just […]
The Knicks head to State Farm Arena tonight for Game Three against the Hawks, tied 1-1 in their first-round playoff series. New York needs to reclaim momentum after blowing a 12-point fourth-quarter lead in Game Two and giving the series a queasy, slippery feeling. The Knicks entered Game Two with a 40-1 record when leading […]
Well it has rapidly turned into prospect week for the Braves’ rotation, as a 1.0 inning Reynaldo Lopez start on Tuesday in the middle of a stretch of 10 games straight sent the Braves’ pitching into a scramble to cover innings. An up and down 3.0 inning start from Didier Fuentes resulted in Thursday’s scheduled […]
Well, this has certainly been a busy night! It makes sense given the short turnaround between tonight’s 8-6 win for the Braves over the Nationals and Thursday afternoon’s Getaway Day game to end the series. We already got the huge news that consensus Top 100 prospect JR Ritchie would be called up to start Thursday’s […]
At the end of the recap for tonight’s 8-6 Braves win over the Nationals, I mentioned that the process of getting through that game pitching-wise brought up some questions as to how they would deal with Thursday afternoon’s game. As it turned out, the Braves will be dipping into their prospect pool again in order […]
The Washington Nationals have continued to show that their offense is plenty potent at the moment. However, the Atlanta Braves were able to out-slug the Nationals in this one as two massive homers from Michael Harris II helped power Atlanta to an 8-6 win over the Nats. The fireworks started early for both teams — […]
Well folks, we’ve got ourselves a series. If the Braves can win tonight, they’ll at least ensure that their streak of not losing series goes on through another midweek and they can go for an impactful series win of a four-game series on the road. If not, then the pressure will be on to salvage […]
After a very complete performance last night, the Nats are back in action tonight. They split the first two games of the series, so the Nats will look to secure at least a split tonight. Grabbing a split against a team the caliber of the Braves would be big for this young group. As usual, […]
While a lot of the regulars for the Braves have started to really get going at the plate, there are still a smal handful of players who are scuffling about while looking to finally get a foothold on this current season of baseball. One of those regulars is Mike Yastrzemski, who has gotten off to […]
Falcons fans, it’s NFL Draft Eve! The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, and while our beloved Falcons don’t have a first-rounder, the team still has five picks and a lot of buzz around a potential trade for tight end Kyle Pitts. Kevin Knight and Adnan Ikic deliver their boldest draft predictions and final […]
The Nationals offense has shown they can beat teams in several ways. They can hit for power, string together hits and play some small ball. However, they showed a new element last night. The Nats took advantage of 12 walks to beat the Braves and put up 11 runs. This was the first time since […]
The week started off with a wild set of games on the Atlanta Braves farm system. The Gwinnett Stripers, led by the rehabbing Spencer Strider, managed to get no-hit but still come out with a win in the game. Meanwhile Rome took the opposite path, obliterating a good Greensboro pitching staff with six home runs […]
Losing is no fun. If it’s to the North Avenue Trade School in any aspect of competition, it’s even worse. In one respect, it was a let-down that two top-five teams faced off Tuesday night at Truist Park and that it was not able to be watched on TV. On the other – perhaps it […]
The Atlanta Braves announced Tuesday that closer Raisel Iglesias was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. Backdated to April 20, the move comes after he slept badly on his shoulder. Fortunately, his MRI did not reveal any structural damage and it is likely that his time on the injured list […]
On April 21, 2024, the Braves began the day with a six-game winning streak. It ended in fairly routine fashion: the Braves took an early 3-0 lead over the Rangers, but Darius Vines couldn’t prop it up, and they lost, 6-4. That was the last time (before now) the Braves had a winning streak of […]
The Atlanta Braves got what is hopefully good news related to closer Raisel Iglesias as it was conveyed to reporters prior to tonight’s game that an MRI showed only inflammation with no structural damage to his shoulder. As MLB.com’s Mark Bowman relayed, the team hopes Iglesias will only stay on the IL for a limited […]
The Braves stormed into DC and knocked off the Nats in game one of the series. Now, the Nats will look to even things up in their four game set with the division leaders. To do so, they need to tighten up defensively. The errors have been piling up for the Nats lately. This is […]
