Your one stop shop for everything Atlanta Braves
Good evening, folks! There’s no game tonight as the Braves are getting a rare off day in the middle of a homestand. There’s still some stuff to talk about and this is your chance to chat about anything you want (that makes sense for a baseball blog site, haha). What I’m watching tonight Game of […]
Baseball life is good for the Atlanta Braves at the moment. They’ve already put a gap between them and the rest of the division and the gap keeps growing between them and the Phillies and the Mets as well. The vibes are very positive and the week ahead for the Braves could be a promising […]
For the past couple of weeks, both Sean Murphy and Spencer Strider have been busy on the farm getting in work via rehab assignments. While Strider may be closer to returning than Murphy is, one thing we know now is that they’ll be joined by a third Braves big leaguer who is working his way […]
As we get under three months until the 2026 MLB Draft, I thought now would be a good time to start to look at the rankings for the Top 100 players in this year’s draft, in consensus form. There are seven different rankings included in this consensus rankings. Some of these lists are longer than […]
(13-14) Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 10, (17-10) Gwinnett Stripers 5 Box Score Spencer Strider made his second rehab start with the Stripers and continued to look like the Spencer of 2023. Strider allowed two earned runs over five innings of work with seven strikeouts. While the velocity dropped a bit towards the end of his outing, […]
The Reynaldo Lopez mechanics saga is, well, a saga. First, we had his diminished velocity in Spring Training due to “mechanics” rather than injury or something else that persisted, as he was throwing in the high 90s in this 2026 debut. That debut went well without Lopez pitching all that well, but he looked and […]
The Braves once again took care of business on Sunday, beating the Phillies and winning yet another series as their great start to the season rolls along. The amount of positive data points from the past few weeks is highly encouraging to see, including the Braves going 10-3 against NL East opponents over the past […]
A couple of weeks ago, the Atlanta Braves embarked on a 13-game run of games that were solely in the NL East. Initially, it seemed like a tough task considering that they’d be seeing the Philadelphia Phillies twice during that run. At the same time, the Braves had gotten off to an encouraging start to […]
Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss announced after today’s 6-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies that rookie starting pitcher JR Ritchie will get his second major league start on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers. Weiss also confirm that former right-handed starter Reynaldo López is heading to the bullpen to work out some mechanical issues that are […]
After giving the Philadelphia Phillies their first win since April 13th yesterday in extras, the Atlanta Braves took advantage early on in today’s matchup and secured the win 6-2. Kicking the game off with a three-run homer is not so shabby a way to set the tone. Matt Olson took the opportunity in the bottom […]
Last week was a sweep for the Braves, today could lead to another series win… if the Phillies don’t carry over from yesterday and find a way to break their streak. The Braves will have to get runs on the board as early as possible, while the Phillies will have to endure in the latter […]
The Atlanta Braves are looking to extend their successful series record, but for the Philadelphia Phillies, after last week’s embarrassing sweep against them on their home turf, they’re looking to repay the favor and snap that extension. Let’s look at these rosters. The lineup for the Braves looks pretty identical to yesterday’s with a familiar […]
Saturday’s biggest story in the Atlanta Braves farm system had to be the weather. Not only were half of the games rained out, but the best performance of the day was cut short by a rain delay. Brett Sears got pulled a bit early because of that rain delay, but he was pitching a one-hit […]
The rain ahead of Saturday’s contest between the Atlanta Braves and the Philadelphia Phillies may have forced Brian Snitker’s Braves Hall of Fame induction ceremony indoors but it certainly didn’t dampen the spirits of anybody who was in the house for Snit’s big day. That included Braves Hall-of-Famers Tim Hudson and Terry Pendleton, who were […]
You win some, you lose some. However, the Atlanta Braves have yet to lose a series this season and are the only MLB team to achieve this feat. Although they can’t repeat getting a sweep against the Philadelphia Phillies, they have an opportunity to bounce back from yesterday’s rainy day loss. Chris Sale, boasting a […]
Well, that was annoying. The Phillies were who the Braves thought they were, and they let them off the hook. The Braves took a game to extras and lost, but it required: When you step away from it, you are encouraged and appalled. The good news is that this stretch resembles their 26-4 run in […]
Braves News Brian Snitker was inducted to the Braves Hall of Fame on Saturday. The Braves lost what essentially turned into a coin flip of a game to the Phillies and will now go for a series win behind Chris Sale today. MLB News The Red Sox fired most of their coaching staff after a […]
As the Braves looked for another series victory, they faced Zack Wheeler, uncertain of exactly what to expect from the Phillies’ ace coming back from injury, while Bryce Elder started for Atlanta. Bryce allowed some hard contact for two groundouts in the first, before going up 0-2 on Harper and then seemingly overthrowing to try […]

Mother nature isn’t cooperating with Brian Snitker’s Braves Hall of Fame induction nor game two of the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies series. Rain, rain go away! Let Brian Snitker have his day! 8:10Pm official start time. The tarp is still on the field as they begin the Snitker induction. Updates on the start time […]
Ahead of this evening’s game between the Atlanta Braves and the Philadelphia Phillies, there was a special guest in the press conference room. Well, he’s a special guest who used to be a regular in that room. Former manager Brian Snitker is getting inducted into the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame and he took some […]
The Braves go for another series win against the Phillies, as Bryce Elder takes the bump facing off against Zack Wheeler in his first start back from injury. Wheeler has been somewhat diminished in his rehab starts, so we probably shouldn’t expect the prime Zack Wheeler. You can read more about the pitching matchup in […]
With a game 1 win in the books, the Braves maintain the top record and run differential in MLB so far this season. They will now have two chances to secure a series win over Philadelphia and the Phillies have now lost 10 straight. This is an important game for the Phillies, as their ace […]
From extra innings, to late-inning heroics, Friday’s slate of minor league games had plenty of action. Let’s dive into it all. (16-9) Gwinnett Stripers 3, (12-13) Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 6 Box Score It was a disappointing night all-around for Gwinnett as the pitching staff didn’t do its job while the offense was rather stagnant in […]
Everything about Grant Holmes just says reliever. The heavy fastball-slider usage, the pitches that seem to come and go, the 2 times through the order numbers, the stache, the long hair. Yet he’s grabbed 33 starts with Atlanta in the last 3 years. This year’s 2TTO numbers weren’t bad coming into this start. Though they […]
