Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
Happy Friday A’s fans! The Athletics wrapped up their season-opening road trip this week with a series loss to the Atlanta Braves. Combined with the sweep to open the year up in Toronto against the Blue Jays and the A’s are already behind the eight ball with a 1-5 record to begin the year, sitting […]
It probably goes without saying that our collective enjoyment of the Braves would be higher the last few seasons if we didn’t have so many “the [player name] saga,” but, unfortunately, we do. The Reynaldo Lopez saga is definitely a saga, at that, and it’s one that’s had a number of developments lately, what with […]
With just six games left in the season for the Sixers, the middle of the Eastern Conference is as tightly packed as ever. There are still only four games between the rolling five-seed Hawks (44-33) and 10-seed Heat (40-37) and the Sixers’ position in sixth is up for plenty of change over the next 10 […]
The Atlanta Braves opened their West Coast road trip with a bang after Thursday night’s 17-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Atlanta lineup racked up 16 hits, and for the first time since 2001, every member of the starting lineup recorded an RBI. It was a successful night for the pitchers, too, who allowed […]
The Atlanta Hawks absolutely cannot be stopped. They finished the month of March with a record of 13-2, and going back to the All-Star break, the Hawks have rocketed up the standings with a mark of 18-3 since February 11th. When the team has this level of success, individual accolades tend to follow. On Thursday, […]
In what quickly became the most lopsided game of the season, the Braves struck early and often against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field on Thursday night en route to a 17-2 win. The Braves are now 5-2 on the young season, It took until game 17 last year to win five games. Matt Olson […]
Reynaldo López and the Braves are looking for their third consecutive series-opening win against Ryne Nelson and the Diamondbacks. More on the pitching matchup here and today’s lineups here. First pitch is scheduled for 9:40 pm ET. We are entering real sicko hours (for us on the East Coast). But unfortunately for me, seeing Wiley […]
Today’s Lineups BRAVES DIAMONDBACKS Ronald Acuna – RF Ketel Marte – 2B Drake Baldwin – C Corbin Carroll – DH Matt Olson – 1B Geraldo Perdomo – SS Austin Riley – 3B Gabriel Moreno – C Mike Yastrzemski – LF Alek Thomas – CF Ozzie Albies – 2B Nolan Arenado – 3B Michael Harris – […]
Let’s play four in Phoenix. For the third straight game, Walt Weiss has penciled in the same lineup. (And for the second straight series, the Braves social team has used “New series on deck” as the accompanying copy…) I’m mostly interested who, if anyone, plans to step up offensively. Reigning ROY or not, Baldwin can’t […]
The Kirk Cousins saga won’t truly be over until the Falcons have cleared his $12.5 million dead money charge for 2027, but we’re putting the era in the rear view mirror nonetheless. The latest step? Cousins signing what’s effectively a one-year deal with the Raiders, with some cap shenanigans that could make it a two-year […]
This opening weekend and homestand have felt especially sweet after last year’s nightmare start. Drake is raking, TBS-era Braves enjoyers are eating good with the newly revealed City Connects and various BravesVision homages… and the Braves aren’t climbing out of an early season deficit. Let’s hope the good vibes made the team plane headed West. […]
Gwinnett Stripers (2-3) 6, Round Rock Express (1-4) 3 Box Score Gwinnett picked up their second win of the season on Wednesday as JR Ritchie rebounded from what was a shaky start to his season in the process. in his first start of the season last Friday, Ritchie struggled with his command, which led to […]
We’ve got a roster move that fell through the cracks a little bit but still needs to be talked about since it affects the depth of this squad. Back around Opening Day, infielder Brett Wisely was designated for assignment once it was clear that he wouldn’t be making the team. That was all the way […]
Editor’s note: This is the first post from new Peachtree Hoops contributor Jackson Stone. We’re excited to have him on the staff and help with our coverage of the Atlanta Hawks. The Atlanta Hawks completed a season sweep of the Orlando Magic on Wednesday evening with a dominant 130-101 victory over their Southeast divisional rivals […]
1. Incredible Scoring Night Coming off a rough loss against the Atlanta Hawks, the Celtics were almost completely healthy in their matchup against the Miami Heat and they played arguably their best offensive game of the season. Boston scored 147 points on the Heat in this game, the second most points they’ve scored in a […]
The Las Vegas Raiders have a new mentor at quarterback and perhaps a Week 1 starter. The Raiders have signed veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins. This was an expected move since Cousins was released by the Atlanta Falcons. His agency announced it Thursday morning. New Las Vegas head coach Klint Kubiak was Cousins’ quarterbacks coach for […]
Watching the Braves’ first six games of the year, it’s hard to really seize on any one thing that cements their identity as distinct from other teams, or the Braves teams that have come before. Not that these things have to come in the first six games, and sometimes, even if they do, it’s not […]
He lands on every Astros fans list of top historical moments. Game 4 of the 2005 NLDS lasted 18 innings until Chris Burke walked off the Braves with a 338 shot to left field. This is the second installment of our Legends Series. Q: How often are you asked about that moment? A: I don’t […]
If you look at the current Diamondbacks’ win-loss record, you could say that the season is going according to expectations, although, all truth told, the Diamondbacks do not necessarily have an easy start of the season with the World Series champions in our first series, a 2025 play-off team in our second series and a […]
We were reminded of three people we are lucky to have on Wednesday: Chris Sale, Drake Baldwin, and Matt Powers. Chris Sale wasn’t his best self and had a major velocity dip to start the game, but he worked through 6.0 innings of 1 run ball to deliver a series victory for Atlanta. Drake Baldwin […]
The Atlanta Hawks were in Orlando on Wednesday evening to face the Magic. With the season near its end, this was a big win for both teams when it comes to seeding. The Magic have fallen over the past few weeks, while the Hawks have risen and are looking to stay in the top six […]

4-2 sure beats the crap out of 0-7, right? Indeed, the Atlanta Braves have gotten their season off on the right foot following a successful homestand to get things going. Atlanta took the opening series with two straight wins over the Royals to start things off and now they’ve kept things going in the right […]
Not much to write home about here after yet another series dropped to begin the 2026 campaign. Luis Severino took the bump. His second start of the season, following an outing on opening day where he pitched…fine. Across five frames against the Blue Jays he gave up 2 ER while striking out three. Everything would […]
The Falcons addressed a number of positions in free agency, but where does Atlanta need to invest the most in the 2026 NFL Draft? Kevin Knight and Adnan Ikic rank their biggest draft needs for the Falcons, discussing how they believe Atlanta should prioritize their limited draft resources. Fellow Falcoholics, welcome to another episode of […]
