Catcher Chadwick Tromp elected free agency over the weekend, according to the MLB.com transaction log. He was designated for assignment by the Braves on Thursday when they acquired Austin Wynns in a minor trade with the Angels. Tromp spent a couple weeks on Atlanta’s active roster. He was called up in mid-May when Drake Baldwin went on the […]
The Toronto Blue Jays are set to open up a three-game set on Tuesday against the red-hot Atlanta Braves in Truist Park. The Braves are the best team in MLB with a 40-20 record, and this is certainly a great test for the Blue Jays to see where they stack up this season against the […]

The Atlanta Braves have scored the second most runs MLB so far this season and had plans of continuing this trend while facing the Reds an their started Chris Paddack and his 6.86 ERA. The first inning started off with a bang. Ronald Acuña Jr. hit the fourth pitch he saw for a solo shot […]
How about these Washington Nationals! They just took two out of three in Atlanta to hand the Braves their second series loss of the season. The Nats offense was not firing on all cylinders this weekend, but the pitching staff picked up the bats. This offense deserved the help they got from the pitching this […]
Even heavy rain couldn’t wash away a poor series at the plate for the Atlanta Braves. The Braves were shutout through six innings of Sunday’s rubber match against the Washington Nationals, facing a 1-0 deficit. One 90-minute weather delay later, that deficit grew to 2-0. The Braves rallied mildly in the ninth, but left the […]
The Atlanta Braves have released their lineup for tonight’s contest against the Miami Marlins and the lineup is one that looks like another reminder of just how deep this lineup can be on any given day when injuries aren’t completely ravaging the squad. Anyways, here’s the lineup for the Braves: Michael Harris II has moved […]
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but eight runs are better than zero. The Braves are back in the win column, winning their 33rd game of the season in Ronald Acuña Jr.’s return to the lineup. The Braves took advantage of command issues from Marlins starter Braxton Garrett, who loaded the bases with no outs to start […]
Shōta Imanaga is pitching like the ace everyone hoped he would be. Imanaga threw seven outstanding innings (and one batter into the eighth, and that inning led to the Cubs’ undoing), the third time this year he’s thrown seven. But Phil Maton could not hold a 1-1 tie together and the Cubs lost to the […]
Some good stuff has been happening on the farm for this Braves franchise this year, as a number of position-player prospects have been really showing out, including shortstops John Gil and Tate Southesene. Perhaps the most impressive has been 2024 20th round pick, Canadian centerfielder Eric Hartman. Hartman joined Baseball America’s top 100 prospects list […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
The stage is set, and the Chicago Cubs are looking for a get -back against the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves. As leaders of the central themselves, they’re not going to be an easy team to keep at bay, especially if they can get some early runs. The Braves, however, are known to find their ways […]
ICYMI, the Cubs signed Liam Hendriks to a minor-league deal today. Can’t hurt, I suppose. Wednesday notes… Cubs lineup: Braves lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. JR Ritchie, RHP Shōta Imanaga has been just outstanding this year. Last seven starts: 1.70 ERA, 0.850 WHIP, 46 strikeouts in 42.1 innings with only three home runs allowed. The […]

After ending yesterday’s game against the Chicago Cubs with a one-hitter, the Atlanta Braves are looking to secure an early series win and a whole new offensive plan with rookie JR Ritchie on the mound. Let’s look at who we have. The one question that’s been surfacing is, “Where’s Dominic Smith on the starting lineup?” […]
With the MLB Draft only about two months away I thought it would be good to examine the history of the players selected with the picks the Atlanta Braves have in the 2026 MLB Draft. With the Braves picking ninth overall for their first selection, I decided to start by looking at the history of […]
Win 10, lose three, win 10, lose three. Win 10 again? Unlikely. But one of the more curious 26 game stretches we’ve ever seen has just concluded. What will be next? We can’t know. But the schedule doesn’t ease up. This Braves team is no joke. Coming off of a down season, experts were divided […]
Tate Southisene has had about the best start to his career that the Atlanta Braves could have dreamed of, putting together a monster campaign through a month and a half for Augusta and living up to his first round selection. His two RBI and home run led Augusta to a win to start their series. […]
Look at it this way. At least the Cubs scored some runs in this game. Not enough runs, as they lost to the Braves 5-2 in the series opener in Atlanta. Colin Rea and Grant Holmes matched zeroes through two innings, and the Cubs failed to score in the top of the third. The Braves […]
Despite the fact that the Braves were back in town and riding high following a successful road trip out West, there was still a bit of a somber feeling at the ballpark ahead of their series opener against the Chicago Cubs. That’s because this was the first time where the organization would be able to […]
The Atlanta Braves announced a series of roster moves on Tuesday, and most notably, Sean Murphy is headed to the injured list with a fractured finger. Though he was just placed on the 10-day IL, skipper Walt Weiss said his time out would surpass the 10-day period and likely be around eight weeks. Murphy suffered […]
Go get ‘em, Colin.
The Atlanta Braves are in the midst of one of their best starts in franchise history. They are on pace for a 110-52 record while leading MLB in run differential after defeating the pre-season World Series favorites and having shown they are clear favorites in a division that has the high spending Mets and Phillies […]
Tuesday notes… Cubs lineup: So, I’ve said many times I will admit when I’m wrong. I did not think Craig Counsell would have Moisés Ballesteros catch in this series. But here he is, starting the first game behind the plate. Hope it works out. Braves lineup: Colin Rea, RHP vs. Grant Holmes, RHP Colin Rea […]
