Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
The Orioles roster seems to be in pretty good shape. Mike Elias has beefed up the rotation and, if reports are to be believed, he could still bring in Framber Valdez. The additions of Pete Alonso and Taylor Ward should provide some pop in the middle of the lineup. And Ryan Helsley feels like a […]

This is a really good view of a bygone era at Wrigley Field, also sent to me by BCB reader Joe Coney. I had to enhance the colors a bit; the original photo as sent to me was a bit washed out. This also made it easier to read the matchups on the scoreboard, and […]
The Braves only managed 76 wins last season. It’s hard to imagine the Braves doing worse than that. And that 76 win team had a 10 game winning streak in September. That team lost their Opening Day starting rotation. Well, you all know all that. But was 2025 as bad as it will get? At […]
Unless you missed the news on The Weather Channel, local news channels, national news channels, from Facebook, Twitter, your co-workers, your mama and your grandma; there’s a storm brewing. Anywhere from four to eighteen inches of snow is headed. The grocery stores in my part of Braves Country were at DEFCON 2 on Thursday and […]
The 2025 NFL season wasn’t kind to the Atlanta Falcons, who missed the playoffs for the eighth-straight year, saw their starting quarterback tear his ACL, and wound up firing their head coach and general manager. It’s been tumultuous, to say the least. But there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, as the Falcons […]
Earlier this week, utilityman Luke Williams signed a minor league contract with the Atlanta Braves. 29-year-old Williams joined the Braves in 2023, and since then, he’s appeared in 89 games. In 2025, he logged most of his innings at shortstop, but he’s also been known to be on the mound when necessary. The move was […]

The Atlanta Braves snuck this through the transaction wire earlier this week, but the team has brought back utility player/pitcher Luke Williams on a minor league deal.

The Atlanta Falcons have requested permission to interview Philadelphia Eagles senior personnel director/advisor to the general manager Joe Douglas for their GM opening, according to a report from NFL insider Jonathan Jones. Douglas re-joined the Eagles in May 2025 after going 32-68 in about 5.5 seasons as the New York Jets’ general manager. He originally […]
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported that the Atlanta Falcons blocked the San Francisco 49ers after requesting an interview with secondary coach Justin Hood. Pelissero wasn’t specific about what job Hood would’ve interviewed for, calling it a “high-ranking staff position.” Hood has been the secondary coach in Atlanta for two seasons. Previously, he worked as a […]
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Atlanta Hawks showed resilience, poise, and just enough late-game execution to slip past the Memphis Grizzlies, 124–122, grinding out one of their most satisfying road wins of the season. Atlanta After absorbing an early punch from a fired-up FedExForum crowd, Atlanta settled in, leaned on its versatility, and delivered when it […]
Earlier this week, baseball writers voted Carlos Beltrán into the Baseball Hall of Fame. On his fourth year of the ballot, Beltrán garnered 84.2% of the votes cast, well more than the 75% required to gain induction. He finished his career in 2017 as a member of the World Series champion Houston Astros. Of course, […]
Time to cross off another name on the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator candidate list.

Despite missing the playoffs for the eighth-straight season, the Atlanta Falcons received some welcome news on Thursday. Star running back Bijan Robinson was officially named a finalist for the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year award, while defenders James Pearce Jr. and Xavier Watts were both named finalists for the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the […]
Prior entries: Chris Sale led Braves pitchers with 3.6 fWAR in 125 2/3 innings of work last year. When the Braves acquired Sale for Vaughn Grissom, they were able to do so because it was perfectly reasonable to assume that Sale would make fewer than ten starts in 2024, given his propensity for both baseball-related […]
Well options are beginning to dwindle for the Braves to add another impact player this offseason. They have a stated desire to add to their starting rotation and Framber Valdez is still out there on the market (though would cost a draft pick to sign), but the market has been moving for the last couple […]
The Cleveland Browns are in the market for a new head coach, and whoever takes on the role will also need to add an offensive coordinator to the staff.

They join Steelers assistant GM Andy Weidl, who […]
According to Francys Romero , the Chicago Cubs are signing another reclamation pitcher, bringing in righty Yacksel Rios on a minor league deal. The 32-year-old reliever spent parts of the 2017-21, and 2023 seasons in the big leagues, pitching for the Phillies, Pirates, Mariners, Red Sox, and A’s, flashing big stuff without much in the way of results (6.32 career ERA, 5.61 career FIP, but only 98.1 big league innings). Yacksel Rios has also been in the Rays, White Sox, and Braves’ systems,...
