A mix of game types happened on Sunday — some close (and maybe surprisingly so), some where a team obliterated another. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: Japan 4, Australia 3. Who had Japan beating a team in pool play by a run or less? After not quite smashing Korea, this […]
On Sunday, the Braves lost to the Rays 9-8 in a game that was no too enjoyable if you like good pitching. Bryce Elder was rocked from the start, while Joey Wentz left the game due to a knee injury (early indications are it is not serious.) Overall, the Braves have got good production from […]
Bryce Elder had a rough one on the mound at Charlotte Sports Park against the Rays, as he ended up conceding more runs than innings pitched in what turned out to be a battle of the bats between the Atlanta Braves and Tampa Bay in spring training action. It was clear from the jump that […]
During today’s spring training contest between the Atlanta Braves and the Tampa Bay Rays, Atlanta’s organizational depth when it comes to their starting pitching may have taken yet another hit. Joey Wentz had to be carted off the field during today’s game with an apparent injury to his leg — probably his knee. There’s no […]
It’s time for another Bryce Elder spring training start, as the Atlanta Braves continue to make their way through the Grapefruit League. For those keeping track at home, the Braves are actually sitting on top of the Grapefruit League standings, which is surely the greatest achievement that this team has accomplished in quite some time, […]
Friday was a day for blowouts. Saturday was a day for comebacks, and featured the first two walkoffs in WBC history. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: On we go to the games… Japan 8, Korea 6. These two teams played a bit of a barnburner while you were sleeping. Korea […]
The Braves 2025 season was.. yeah. Let’s go with unpredictable. Not fun for sure. The staff’s predictions was definitely not in the 70ish win range. But we had some decent submissions from last year. I mean, we were on our game. Blame the injuries and the HR/FB monster. Hey, let’s look at last year’s predictions […]
Didier Fuentes looked absolutely dominant on Saturday, drawing 7 whiffs on just 25 pitches and pumping up to 99 MPH with his fastball. He did so, however, throwing only two pitches and throwing his four-seamer 80% of the time. It will be interesting to see what additional pitches he adds to his arsenal this season, […]
Ronald Acuña Jr. may have gotten one-up on his buddy Ozzie Albies during Friday’s head-to-head matchup between Venezuela and the Netherlands during the World Baseball Classic but I’d imagine that that’s already in the distant past as far as Ozzie is concerned. While Acuña may have picked up a win on Friday, Ozzie Albies ended […]
Grant Holmes took the mound against the Orioles, as the Braves stacked their lineup with most of their regular bats. Holmes had a mixed day on the mound, as he issued 3 walks in 2.2 innings, something Grant has been prone to in his major league career, but striking out 3 and holding the Orioles […]
Well the Braves are missing a few players to the WBC, but the rest of the squad keeps chugging through the Spring Training schedule and we have gotten to see some fun prospect performances. Today they take on the Orioles and the young top 100 prospect, lefty Luis De Leon. The lineups are as follows: […]
Friday was the first full slate of WBC pool play action, and a lot of stuff happened. As expected, there were a lot of blowouts — both because of the fundamental talent mismatch, but also because these games are still Spring Training-y with the pitch count restrictions and the overall dearth of pitching talent, so […]
Dominic Smith is in the driver’s seat to make the Opening Day roster. The subtractions of Ha-Seong Kim and Jurickson Profar make it all but a certainty. Mark Bowman feels that Smith is your designated hitter versus right handed pitching coming out of the gate. It’s difficult to argue that point, so I’m going to […]
The World Baseball Classic continued on Friday, and this time, Ronald Acuña Jr. faced Ozzie Albies. Acuña Jr. and Team Venezuela came out on top, winning 6-2. The Braves outfielder set the tone early with a leadoff double and crossed the plate a couple of times. Albies and the Netherlands offense struggled to get much […]
The Atlanta Braves took on the Twins in an evening spring training game today with a lineup full of players fighting for final roster spots while some of their stars battle it out in the WBC. Reynaldo López was on the mound looking to continue his success and hopefully stretch out a little bit. Speaking […]
The Atlanta Braves are continuing their spring training while some of their star players are off to the World Baseball Classic to include Ozzie Albies and Ronald Acuña Jr. facing each other today. The Braves will face off against the Minnesota Twins with Reynaldo López taking the mound again. One of question marks for López […]
The much-anticipated Battle of the Braves between Venezuela’s Ronald Acuña Jr. and Ozzie Albies of the Netherlands saw a decisive winner, as Venezuela came out on top 6-2 in Pool D of 2026 World Baseball Classic action. From a Braves perspective, this was a one-sided affair as Acuña hit the ground running in helping his […]
Later on this evening, the Atlanta Braves are going to be playing their first night game of spring training over in Fort Myers against the Twins. However, those won’t be the only Braves players taking part in a baseball game in Florida today. In fact, there will be a game that actually counts (and figures […]
The vagaries of scheduling made yesterday a day chock full of Czechia baseball action… but unfortunately, it went pretty terribly for them. The early-morning (at least here on the East Coast of the United States) contest saw Czechia get absolutely clobbered by Korea. Starter Daniel Padysak didn’t even escape the first inning — two walks […]
The Atlanta Braves continued trimming down the roster Thursday, announcing five more cuts. Jhancarlos Lara was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett, while Austin Pope, Jim Jarvis, Alex Lodise and Luke Waddell were reassigned to minor league camp. After these moves, there are 54 active players in camp. None of the moves come as much of a […]
The 2026 World Baseball Classic is officially underway and if you’re keeping track of things from an Atlanta Braves perspective, today is the day for you. It’s all going down today at high noon at loanDepot park in Miami, FL as Ronald Acuña Jr. and Venezuela get set to take on Ozzie Albies and Jurickson […]
Today, the Atlanta Braves have released their full 40-man Spring Breakout roster. It’s filled with their top prospects who will compete against the Yankees on March 21. This is just a preliminary roster pool, as only 27 of those 40 players will actually make the final roster. Below you will find a list of the […]
What more can you ask for? A nice sunny day in CoolToday Park, a solid pitching performance from the Atlanta Braves’ two aces, and oh yeah…an appearance from Chipper Jones and Dale Murphy to speak with the team’s hitters before today’s game. In an interview with Jones from MLB Braves insider Mark Bowman, he explained […]
The hottest prospects that the Atlanta Braves have to offer are set to face off against the New York Yankees and their collection of farm system talent on March 21 at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa. We knew the date and the time (6:35 p.m. ET, to be exact) but we didn’t know the […]
More cuts. More cuts! None of these guys really had much of a shot of making the roster, so this is mostly just procedural. Jhancarlos Lara turned some heads in the low minors, but has really struggled in Double-A and Triple-A. He hadn’t any official Spring Training appearances this year. While he does have a […]
