September 15: López has indeed been placed on the injured list. Ritchie was recalled in the corresponding move. Atlanta also announced that reliever Joe Jiménez is reporting to Gwinnett for a rehab assignment — his first official game action since the 2024 postseason.

After Atlanta’s loss to the Cubs, Lindsay Crosby argues Ozzie Albies’ poor recent production and declining defense make him a lineup liability, especially batting cleanup, and urges a lineup change and longer-term second base planning. He breaks down Martín Pérez’s extreme home/road splits, suggesting more changeups vs lefties on the road. He also discusses Reynaldo López heading to the IL with recurring shoulder issues, diminished velocity, and uncertain future with the Braves amid broader ro...
Reynaldo Lopez got the start in yesterday’s series opener against the Cubs — just his second since returning from the IL — and it only took three innings before the game was totally out of hand. Chicago put up three in the second before adding a couple more in the third. Lopez was out of […]
From Walt Weiss' masterclass in Atlanta to Tony Vitello's disaster in San Francisco, let's grade all seven first-year MLB managers' 2026 performances.
Atlanta Braves Discussion I definitely want to see it come to fruition, maybe as part of the Braves bashing their arms for the next two days Sep 15, 2026, 1:00 PM UTC Not that I expected anyone to read it, but I did some fun research for yesterday’s game preview. Basically, the Cubs are currently first by a mile in position player fWAR, but dead last in pitching fWAR. This has never happened over a full season; the closest I found was bottom five-ish (and not even that close to the bottom) for...
Just when you think Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong has gone into a slump — and he was 0-for-8 with three strikeouts Saturday and Sunday — he breaks out of it in a big way. PCA was 4-for-5 Monday against the Braves at Wrigley Field, including his 37th stolen base and 42nd home run of […]
The Braves lost to the Cubs 7-3 on Monday in Chicago. While the Braves did have a chance to make things interesting late, the game never really seemed that close. One bright spot was a solid outing in relief from A.J. Smith Shawver. However, the story of the game were the continued struggles of Reynaldo […]
The Cubs started their series with the Braves off on a positive note Monday night with a win. The home side charged out to a big lead, but there were some tense moments at Wrigley in the late innings when the bullpen had to escape a couple of jams to hang on. Chicago struck first … The post Chicago Cubs Score and Recap (9/14/26): Cubs 7, Braves 3 – Peterson Excellent in W appeared first on .

Monday night was a rough one for the Atlanta Braves as not only did they lose the game to the Cubs, they’ve also apparently lost one of their pitchers. It’s been a rough season injury-wise for Reynaldo López and it appears to have gotten even worse. According to Mark Bowman of MLB.com, López will be heading to the IL. Yeah, that’s very concerning! The shoulder issue that cost Reynaldo López just about the entire 2025 season appears to have popped up on him again and now I’d say that it might b...

The Chicago Cubs may be sitting in an NL Wild Card spot heading into their Monday night clash against the Atlanta Braves, but they are far from safe in their bid to make it to the postseason.

We used to have bullpen punt from ahead and now we have starting pitching punt days Sep 15, 2026, 2:46 AM UTC You know, there was probably a version of this game where the Braves scripted things to work Reynaldo Lopez and AJ Smith-Shawver for only a set number of batters each, and things ended up fairly exciting. That wasn’t what happened, though. The Cubs jumped over Lopez akin to what the Rays managed in his return from the Injured List, and the Brave never caught up, despite bringing the ty...

The gap between Atlanta and the top of the NL is only getting wider, and answers don't appear to be forthcoming.
The Dodgers with their win over the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night at Great American Ball Park are back in the postseason, just as they have every year dating back to 2013. They tied a major league record by making 14 postseasons in a row. That’s every full season of Guggenheim Baseball Management owning the […]
Go get ‘em, David.
Will the balls fly out at Wrigley? Or just the Cubs’ balls as they have all year? Also, apparently the game thread experience is better in the app (I have no firsthand experience)
The Atlanta Braves are the only publicly traded team in Major League Baseball, and because of that, reports like this sometimes come to light.
