Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
There may be more signings to come, but the Falcons have made a fair amount of noise in free agency thus far. It hasn’t been loud noise, mind you, outside of the buzz that comes with signing a quarterback like Tua Tagovailoa and getting back a couple of old fan favorites in Austin Hooper and […]
Not that it really matters, but the New York Yankees are tied for the Grapefruit League lead with a 13-6 record after beating the Detroit Tigers on Thursday. On Friday, they will visit the Atlanta Braves in North Port, with left-hander Ryan Weathers looking to bounce back after putting up a stinker the last time […]
Spring Training is now in full swing and the Atlanta Braves have already made several moves to shape up what their opening day lineup is going to be. One area that is not certain is who will shape up the back end of the rotation to start the year. Didier Fuentes is one of the […]
Jeez, how did I get the relief pitching assignment? You know about me and relievers, right? The thing with this series is that we’ve theoretically gone through “who the Braves have at their disposal this year” and “how those guys are gonna do.” For relievers, though? That’s the place where the mid-March answers to those […]
Okay, now we’re into the competitive races. After finalizing our specialists with Matt Bryant, Matt Bosher, and Allen Rossum (Eric Weems will help handle kicks, too!), we’re moving on to defense. That begins with safety, where we have five contenders for two spots as our starters, and a pretty great crew besides. You’ll see one […]
The Atlanta Braves continued spring play on Thursday, losing 5-2 to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Despite the score, it was a fantastic day for Grant Holmes, who got the start and turned in a lights-out performance. Holmes threw five hitless innings, striking out nine and walking just one Pirate. This run continues a productive spring training […]
According to ESPN’s Schefter, Indianapolis Colts veteran free agent Samson Ebukam is signing with the Atlanta Falcons, per his representation: The 30-year-old veteran defensive end is fresh off a 2025 campaign in which he had 33 tackles (22 solo), 5 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, 23 QB pressures, and a fumble recovery during 14 games […]
New Ravens offensive line coach Dwayne Ledford is bringing one of his former players from Atlanta to Baltimore. Jovaughn Gwyn is set to join the Ravens on a one-year deal, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Gwyn, 26, was a seventh-round pick out of South Carolina in 2023. He only appeared in two games in his […]
The Nets won two straight and then lost by 38 to the Pistons in a revenge game. It all checks out during this long, strange season. Egor Demin, Michael Porter Jr, Nolan Traore, and Day’ron Sharpe are all out. This comes after the news that Sharpe would be out for the remainder of the season. […]
The Atlanta Hawks (34-31) go for their eighth straight win against a depleted and frankly lottery ball-chasing Brooklyn Nets (17-48) squad. Starting lineup: Please join in the comments below as you follow along. Where, When, and How to Watch and Listen Location: State Farm Arena, Atlanta, GA Start Time: 7:30 PM EDT TV: FanDuel Sports Network Southeast (FDSNSE) […]
We will be updating this story as more details become available. James Pearce Jr.’s arrest for a variety of domestic violence-related charges in February seemed to come out of nowhere. But thanks to detailed reporting from Marc Raimondi and former Falcons beat writer Mike Rothstein at ESPN, we now know it didn’t. WNBA player Rickea […]
We’ve got ourselves a rare night game in spring training, folks! This time, the Braves are on the road in Bradenton to take on the Pirates. As you are smart to expect from a road game during spring training, the Braves have sent a group mostly consisting of organizational depth for this one. There are […]

Please remember our Game Day thread guidelines. BD community, this is […]
The Falcons are basically rebuilding their outside linebacker group from scratch, given that Jalon Walker was the only holdover from last year guaranteed to play this year. They have James Pearce Jr. with a cloudy future owing to his arrest and multiple charges and Bralen Trice returning from yet another injury, but it was clear […]
We’re in an era of sports hot takes. Want to yell about sports on TV (or for you younger folks, on social media), have a hot take! But some hot takes have the benefit of being true. We’re still a few weeks from the Royals season opener against the Braves. Do you have a different […]
Jacob Webb is another well-traveled veteran reliever, having had stops with the Braves, Angels, Orioles, Rangers, and now the Cubs. He’s 32 years old, was drafted by Atlanta in the 18th round in 2014, and has been pretty dependable, throwing to ERAs in the threes for the most part. He walks a few more people […]
A fair number of Falcons free agents have either left or will be leaving as a new regime puts its stamp on the franchise. Darnell Mooney, Kirk Cousins, and KhaDarel Hodge have been cut and are seeking new teams, David Onyemata, Dee Alford, and Kaden Elliss already landed with other franchises, and more will come. […]
Let’s just get this right out of the way right out of the gate: As long as all five Opening Day starters don’t hit the 60-Day IL at some point during this season like they did during the 2025 season, this rotation should be fine and will be improved over what we saw last season. […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. It has been a subdued free agency period for the Falcons. Given the cap constraints, the […]
It’s what the people wanted! The Brooklyn Nets took on the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night and got the hell beat out of them as they lost by 38 points. The opponent tonight is flying high. The Atlanta Hawks pushed their winning streak to seven after beating the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night. They’re solidly […]
Wednesday’s three games wrapped up the pool play portion of the WBC, and hurtled us towards the knockout round. Here’s what happened, and how the first knockout round looks like. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: Canada 7, Cuba 2. It was a changing of the guard in this only-winner-advances game, […]
Well, perhaps the two most impressive Atlanta relievers of Spring Training have now been sent to minor league camp, in Hayden Harris and James Karinchak. It seems likely that both will appear in Atlanta this year, assuming Karinchak sticks around long enough to do so as a veteran. They have each been strikeout machines this […]
[UPDATE 4:08 PM] – Corey Levin is signing with the Atlanta Falcons. I had just assumed all along that he would be back here as the interior backup guy again for 2026: [UPDATE 4:01 PM] – The Titans have signed former Kansas City Chiefs DE Malik Herring to a 1-year deal, according to Jordan Schultz: […]
Earlier today, we received some massive news regarding the Atlanta Braves and the new Braves.TV platform. Shortly after that news broke, we got some more important news on where to watch the Braves during the upcoming season. While the lion’s share of games will be on BravesVision, they also have to make room for nationally […]
The Kirk Cousins era in Atlanta is over after two seasons. As expected, the Falcons have made it official on Wednesday with the start of the new league year, with Adam Schefter reporting the team has cut Cousins. A much-ballyhooed signing, Cousins was supposed to be the gem of the 2024 offseason and provide the […]
