Orioles Designate Chadwick Tromp For Assignment

The Orioles have designated catcher Chadwick Tromp for assignment, the team announced Friday. Newly acquired catcher Jake Rogers will take his spot on Baltimore’s active and 40-man roster. Tromp, 31, has bounced back and forth between the Braves and O’s for the past few seasons, serving as a defensive-minded backup in both Baltimore and Atlanta. […]

Which prospects should the Braves be open to trading?

Like many of you, I’m sitting here scrolling through my phone — anxiously awaiting that beautiful blue box from the Braves social media team. I’ve covered this year’s trade deadline from just about every angle, but one I’m not sure I’ve discussed enough is which prospects they should actually consider moving. It’s something I feel […]

2026 Battery Power Braves Midseason Top 30 Prospects: 6-1

After a long week, we are entering the final day of our top 30 roll out. As always it has been an absolute pleasure for us to put together this list, even though it was one of the hardest ones we’ve done in quite some time. There has been another massive infusion of talent to […]

Report: Braves showing “strong interest” in Freddy Peralta

It’s Friday, and it’s about time for things to get wild ahead of Monday’s trade deadline. The mumblings surrounding the Braves — as per usual — are extremely minimal. They always operate quietly, and they’re extremely difficult to get a read on. However, Ken Rosenthal did have an exciting nugget for Braves fans in his […]

Braves Minor League Recap: Offense Everywhere on Thursday

Thursday saw an offensive outburst in the Atlanta Braves system. Although the DSL team lost, all four of the full season affiliates won with three of them scoring 11+ runs and the other scoring seven runs. Conor Essenburg, Alex Lodise, Eric Hartman, Patrick Clohisy, and Luis Guanipa were among the prospects to have notable days […]

Karl Ravech calls Nats-Braves, more upcoming ESPN games after reported layoff

Many viewers who tuned in for Thursday night’s Major League Baseball game between the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves were surprised to see who was in the ESPN broadcast booth. Karl Ravech had the play-by-play duties alongside color commentator Eduardo Pérez. The supposedly laid off Karl Ravech is in the booth calling Braves-Nationals for ESPN…

Washington Nationals vs Atlanta Braves Game Thread

With the August 3rd deadline looming larger by the day, the Nats hit the road and head to Atlanta. Dropping the Jays series felt like a missed opportunity, especially with this four gamer approaching. However, the Nats are road warriors and will have the chance to show that yet again in Atlanta. With a righty […]

Could Braves look to trade these three underachieving players?

In a market like this one, with so few sellers and almost three times as many buyers, it makes sense for a lot of teams to engage in both. The Braves — currently sporting the fourth-best record in baseball — will be much more interested in acquiring players, but there are a few guys under […]

Athletics Claim Connor Thomas

The Athletics announced that they have claimed left-hander Connor Thomas off waivers from the Braves. Right-hander Mark Leiter Jr. was transferred to the 60-day injured list as a corresponding move. There wasn’t any previous indication that Thomas had been designated for assignment by Atlanta but they apparently tried to quietly sneak him through waivers. Their […]

Yankees, Braves, Rangers Among Teams Looking For Right-Handed Outfielder

Right-handed bats are at a premium this deadline. The Mariners and Phillies were already known to be looking for help against lefty pitching, but there’s ample competition for righty-hitting outfielders in particular. Jorge Castillo of ESPN and Bryan Hoch of MLB.com each report that the Yankees have been seeking a right-handed hitting outfielder — a […]

Grant Holmes takes the mound as the Braves face the Nationals

The Atlanta Braves are back home to face the Washington Nationals after a series with the Mets that they likely wish to forget. The Braves are finishing up the month of July as one of the top offenses in MLB for the month, but it did not seem that way last series. The Nationals have […]

Braves at Mets series recap: The struggle continues against New York

I never thought I’d say this about the 2026 New York Mets but folks, I’m tired of them. I think y’all would agree with me on that as well. Indeed, the Mets have seemingly had Atlanta’s number this season and it’s coming at an inopportune time — one when the Mets are about as vulnerable […]

MLB Pipeline names Braves prospect most likely to be traded

Over his tenure as general manager, Alex Anthopoulos has refused to trade his best prospects — and more often than not, he’s been right to do so. Ninety-five percent of the young talent he’s included in trades has gone on to amount to very little, while the guys he’s held onto have turned into superstars. […]

2026 Battery Power Braves Midseason Top 30 Prospects: 12-7

12. Herick Hernandez – LHP How he got to the Braves: 2024 4th round pick (#129 overall) The Braves took Herick Hernandez in the fourth round two years ago and the lefty out of Miami is already in Triple-A. He’s split the year between three levels, though the one start in Augusta was a rehab […]

Will the Braves curtail Austin Riley’s playing time?

Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. But, will they, before the season is done? On the one hand — no. They don’t really have other options (at least not right now), they haven’t done it yet, and Riley has at least shown temporary signs of righting the ship, even if they’ve evaporated as quickly as […]

Mets Morning News: Mets split doubleheader with Braves

Meet the Mets The Mets split a doubleheader with the Braves and look to win the series overall after a win on Monday. In the first game Carson Benge drove in the go-ahead run and Sean Manaea was solid in the victory. In game two Christian Scott was great but the offense couldn’t figure out […]

Braves: Latest injury updates on Sean Murphy, Ha-Seong Kim

Sean Murphy has missed essentially the entire season, appearing in just four games. He didn’t make his first start of the campaign until May 4th after undergoing hip surgery in September of last year, and a week later, he found himself on the IL following a freak incident that resulted in a broken middle finger. […]

AJ Smith-Shawver optioned, will his next start be with the Braves?

The Braves split Wednesday’s doubleheader with the Mets on a day where pitching dominated, as both teams combined for just six runs over 18 innings. AJ Smith-Shawver was the one making his season debut in Game 1 — exactly 14 months removed from his last start for the Braves. It wasn’t flawless, but it was […]
