Latest news and updates about the Braves
The Mets proved they still have the capacity to surprise in late innings today as they won 7-6 against the Braves and split the second series of the season against their division rival. Juan Soto walked three times and hit a three-run home run, and Luis Torrens provided the game-winning double in the tenth inning […]

The Braves have sent right-hander Ian Hamilton outright to Triple-A Gwinnett, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. That indicates he cleared waivers after being designated for assignment last week. Hamilton has the right to elect free agency but probably won’t exercise that right. Players with at least three years of service time have the […]
The Braves announced that outfielder Eli White has been placed on the paternity list. Fellow outfielder José Azócar has been selected to take his place on the active roster. To open a 40-man spot for Azócar, catcher Jair Camargo has been designated for assignment. Azócar, 30, signed a minor league deal with Atlanta in the […]
A hearty congratulations to girl dad Eli White. In another set of moves prior to tonight’s series finale versus the Mets, the Braves placed him on the paternity list. Back with the major league club is outfielder José Azócar. Azócar is on a variation of the Carrasco minor league contract / selection / DFA / […]
Going for a series win behind Reynaldo Lopez, the Braves are shuffling their lineup a bit, swapping Michael Harris up to the leadoff spot and Drake Baldwin down to cleanup. Jim Jarvis gets another start at shortstop, facing the righty Peralta. Meanwhile, AJ Ewing gets the start at leadoff for the Mets and Francisco Lindor […]
At the time that I am writing this, it appears that top prospect Owen Murphy is being called up, but its unclear when he will be deployed, though presumably he will either start today’s game or tomorrow’s. The scheduled starter has been Reynaldo Lopez for today’s game. Lopez is coming off his best start in […]
The Nats are where they have been now for a while which is fun and good because where they are is "about .500 and in the playoff discussion". About a month ago we talked about the playoffs and while we'll go over that deeper in a week during the ASB I want to look at my assumptions about the other teams to see how they held up. If so, it's likely worth checking them out again the same way at that time. Gap would grow between the Nats and Braves/Dodgers/Brewers Wa...
According to Gaurav of Battery Power, the Braves are calling up another top prospect as Owen Murphy is headed to the bigs to make his MLB debut. Per source I’m hearing Owen Murphy will be headed to Atlanta. Last pitched July 1st – 6IP 2H 0R 1BB 7KDominant, unique 4s FB that sits 91-93 but […]
The Braves announced Monday that they’ve yet again designated righty Carlos Carrasco for assignment. Atlanta also placed veteran lefty Martín Pérez on the 15-day injured list due to a left forearm contusion. In a pair of corresponding moves, Atlanta recalled right-hander JR Ritchie from Triple-A Gwinnett and selected the contract of right-hander and former first-round […]
I wrote this same piece last year and some of these names have already been making noise. Miguel Sime is a part of the Futures Game, Samuel Cozart is a potential first rounder next year after going to college instead of signing, and one of the honorable mentions (Cardell Thibodeaux) recently signed with the Braves […]
The Braves rotation hasn’t had many positive developments this season, and the latest injury to Martin Perez is yet another punch they must find a way to roll with; however, the version of AJ Smith-Shawver that should be returning soon is worth getting excited about. The 23-year-old is working his way back from Tommy John […]
The Braves fell to the Mets on Sunday afternoon in a thriller — one that started with a flurry of runs, went quiet for a stretch, and then exploded for 11 combined runs in the ninth inning alone. Martin Perez got the start for Atlanta, the latest twist in a wild ride through his 15th […]
(42-43) Gwinnett Stripers @ (37-49) Durham Bulls – POSTPONED (35-41) Columbus Clingstones 4, (46-35) Knoxville Smokies 5 Box Score After going ahead early, the Clingstones were unable to make a one run lead last – unfortunately due to some timely hitting by the Smokies in the games middle innings. Brett Sears got the start for […]
Pitchers from the Orioles and Braves lead the FAAB acquisition market from last week. The post Expert FAAB Review ’26: Week 15 appeared first on Baseball Prospectus .
With Martín Pérez very likely heading to the IL after having injured his forearm getting hit with a comebacker and Carlos Carrasco also likely to receive yet another DFA, there’s a spot that’s available in Atlanta’s pitching staff at the moment. As it turns out, the Atlanta Braves may be turning to a rookie who […]
The Mets came into the Sunday game against the Braves mired in a serious funk. They had lost three straight games and twelve of the last fourteen games. They needed to turn it around, and given the state of their rotation, they had their best chance with Nolan McLean on the mound. They were facing […]
Behind a three-run first inning, it seemed the Braves were going to carry their Saturday momentum right into Sunday afternoon’s home game against the New York Mets. Then they were held scoreless for the next seven innings. Facing a seven-run deficit after the Mets posted a five-run top of the ninth, the bats awakened but […]
If you will allow me to put my armchair meteorologist hat on, I read an article somewhere about how this heat dome that’s been causing temperatures to skyrocket in recent days has been collapsing since Thursday. As such, that’s been causing enough of a disruption in the atmosphere to where thunderstorms are even more likely […]
The Braves have a plethora of areas they will be looking to upgrade ahead of the trade deadline, none more so than their starting rotation, which is desperate for a frontline starter to pair with Chris Sale. The good news? ESPN’s Buster Olney is confident that — even with fewer teams looking to sell — […]
Projected Mets vs. Braves start time and full rain delay and weather updates from Truist Park for the Sunday, July 5 game.
A strong end to the first half of the season would go a long way toward the Braves winning the NL East, because after the All-Star break, many improvements are going to be made to this roster. Most notably, Ronald Acuña Jr. is expected to rejoin the team once the second half begins. He’s been […]

With a right-handed starter on the mound for the New York Mets in Sunday’s 12:30 p.m. ET game, the Atlanta Braves unsurprisingly are pivoting back to a righty-focused batting order. Drake Baldwin is back in the leadoff spot after Mauricio Dubón led off Saturday night, dropping Dubón into the five-hole. Additionally, Dominic Smith gets the start at […]
