Latest news and updates about the Braves
The Atlanta Braves return to Truist Park and kick off the weekend with a three-game set against the Cleveland Guardians. The Braves enter play with an 8-5 record and are coming off a series win in Anaheim, where the run column was high, and emotions even higher. The Guardians come to town with the same […]
How are we all faring on this first off day? Bored yet? ICYMI: Demetrius had a great chat with Peter Moylan, Ronald is all over the promotional material for the new City Connects, and we published a recap + some takeaways from the series vs. the Halos. Have a great evening!
Right before Wednesday’s series finale between the Atlanta Braves and the Los Angeles Angels, I got a chance to chat with former Braves reliever and current BravesVision TV analyst Peter Moylan. Moylan was gracious enough to share some of his time with us and so I got the chance to ask him some questions about […]
I think this series is our clearest evidence yet that 2026 should be a better year for the Atlanta Braves than 2025 was. Sure, it’s still very early and 13 games is only a small drop in the bucket of a full 162-game season but the Braves have already just gotten done doing something that […]
Yesterday was a momentous day in Braves franchise history: #715 for Hammerin’ Hank. I will never forget being moved by all of the little details of the first City Connects that honored Aaron’s legacy – the embroidered “Keep Swinging” on the hat, the Art-Deco crown on the sleeve, the 715 scoreboard design on the inside […]
As we reach April and start to get closer to the 2026 MLB Draft, we have looked at the college players in this draft a couple of times this season already. Now it’s time to turn our attention to some of the high school options that the Atlanta Braves may want to select this year. […]
Well the Braves are quietly cruising so far this season, with a strong 8-5 record and tied for the MLB lead in run differential. The rotation hasn’t been a weakness yet overall, though the fifth spot had been pretty rough, and while the offense hasn’t been truly humming, only 3 teams in MLB have scored […]
Okay, so technically relentless would be scoring in every inning, and the Braves only scored in five of the nine frames available to them, but hey — it worked just fine. The offense started early and didn’t stop until well past clobberin’ time, leading to an 8-2 victory over the Angels. Meanwhile, Grant Holmes did […]
The updated verdict is out for Los Angeles Angels’ Jorge Soler and Atlanta Braves’ Reynaldo López. Both players were initially set to receive a seven-game suspension following last night’s viral altercation, per Jeff Passan. However, after filing an appeal, less than an hour later, AJC Braves beat writer Chad Bishop reported that López had gotten […]
Is Eli White okay? I haven’t seen anything indicating he is, but that makes this particular Braves arrangement a bit of a headscratcher: A lot of this is what we’ve seen be the Braves’ usual fare against lefties this season. But Mike Yastrzemski is hanging out there, left-on-left, in the seventh spot in the lineup. […]
Last night, Walt Weiss told the assorted Braves media that catcher Sean Murphy would be heading on a rehab assignment as soon as Friday. While we knew that Friday would be the day, we didn’t know which of the four Braves minor league teams that Murphy would be playing for as he makes his final […]
The Braves have been, perhaps disappointingly, even steven so far on their seven-game swing out West: they split a four-game set with the Diamondbacks, and then split the first two games of this series with the Angels. After some fisticuffs and go-for-the-throat bullpen management in a win last night, they have a chance to both […]
It was a strong set of games on Tuesday for the Atlanta Braves system, with three of four teams winning and Columbus only losing to some late pitching struggles. The position player depth at the lower levels was at full display with some important performances down in Augusta and Rome, especially the games from Alex […]
The Atlanta Braves evened the series on Tuesday night after a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels. Reynaldo López got the start. He allowed two runs, walked two, and struck out seven. Things were going relatively well, and then it got a bit punchy (literally). In the bottom of the fifth, benches cleared after […]
In what was an otherwise routine and mostly quiet game on Tuesday night between the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels, a big time brawl broke out between Braves starter Reynaldo Lopez and former World Series hero Jorge Soler. Let’s set the stage. Earlier in the game, Lopez hit Soler in the hand with a […]
Dude. The Atlanta Braves are currently up 4-2 on the Los Angeles Angels in the bottom of the fifth inning during the middle game of their three-game series in Anaheim. The Braves will have to go without starting pitcher Reynaldo López for the remainder of the contest after he got thrown out for getting into […]
For once, we have some good injury news to report here in Braves Country. Earlier today, Walt Weiss provided some new information on both injured pitcher Spencer Strider and injured catcher Sean Murphy. While Strider still seems to be working his way towards health, the return of Murphy appears to be relatively imminent. Walt Weiss […]
Introducing a new weekly series where we review what we’ve seen, and heart from the latest week of minor league action. This past weekend we saw all the full season teams start their yearly grind so let’s take a glance at what happened. Who’s Hot Ethan Bagwell – 6IP 0H 0R 1BB 6K, 16 whiffs […]
So, we’re just over 10 games into the season for the Atlanta Braves and the on-paper results have been encouraging — even if the on-field results have the Braves just one game over .500 as they look to avoid dipping below that mark as they deal with the seemingly impossible task of winning baseball games […]
The season had been going pretty well. I wasn’t really concerned with a split with the Diamondbacks, as I figured that’s what would happen going in — in the exact fashion of winning the first two and losing the next two. But, despite how good Jose Soriano is, I figured the Braves would win on […]
Over the past few days, it certainly seems as if all the positive momentum that came from the Braves 17-run outburst last Friday has basically evaporated. The Braves have lost three straight, including last night’s 6-2 loss to the Angels. Chris Sale had one of the worst innings of his career and the Braves offense […]
In the top of the first inning, Drake Baldwin homered again to give the Braves an early 1-0 lead over the Angels. Baldwin’s incredible sophomore campaign has been something to behold. And that’s where the fun ended on Monday night. Jose Soriano absolutely cooked the Braves for eight innings, allowing just the one run on […]
The Atlanta Braves face off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in what looks to be a pitchers duel between the two staff aces. Chris Sale has only given up one run in his two starts, and José Soriano has yet to surrender an earned run this season in twelve innings. The Braves’ offense […]
The Atlanta Braves had a roller coaster ride of offense in Arizona, scoring seventeen runs in one game, but in the other two it was basically what seemed to be just Drake Baldwin carrying them. The offense is going to try and kick it back into gear against the Angels in another late game but […]
Well, the good news is that the Atlanta Braves still have yet to lose a series here in 2026. By this time last year they were doing nearly nothing but losing, so I will happily take a 6-4 start over that shambolic 2-8 start that they had over the course of their first 10 games […]
