Last night, Walt Weiss told the assorted Braves media that catcher Sean Murphy would be heading on a rehab assignment as soon as Friday. While we knew that Friday would be the day, we didn’t know which of the four Braves minor league teams that Murphy would be playing for as he makes his final […]
The Braves have been, perhaps disappointingly, even steven so far on their seven-game swing out West: they split a four-game set with the Diamondbacks, and then split the first two games of this series with the Angels. After some fisticuffs and go-for-the-throat bullpen management in a win last night, they have a chance to both […]
It was a strong set of games on Tuesday for the Atlanta Braves system, with three of four teams winning and Columbus only losing to some late pitching struggles. The position player depth at the lower levels was at full display with some important performances down in Augusta and Rome, especially the games from Alex […]
After the fisticuffs between Reynaldo Lopez and Jorge Soler, Walt Weiss had a bit of a problem. He had to get 4 1/3 from his bullpen, but ideally, while preserving a small lead. If the game were a blowout already, it would be easy to sacrifice Jose Suarez and move on from there, but that […]

The Atlanta Braves evened the series on Tuesday night after a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels. Reynaldo López got the start. He allowed two runs, walked two, and struck out seven. Things were going relatively well, and then it got a bit punchy (literally). In the bottom of the fifth, benches cleared after […]
In what was an otherwise routine and mostly quiet game on Tuesday night between the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels, a big time brawl broke out between Braves starter Reynaldo Lopez and former World Series hero Jorge Soler. Let’s set the stage. Earlier in the game, Lopez hit Soler in the hand with a […]
Game two in Anaheim, can the Atlanta Braves shift the momentum to show the same team we’ve gotten glimpses of in the earlier series?’ I’ve always been told, if nothing changes… nothing changes. And changes have been made to the lineup to opt for an opportunity to snap this losing streak the team has found […]
Dude. The Atlanta Braves are currently up 4-2 on the Los Angeles Angels in the bottom of the fifth inning during the middle game of their three-game series in Anaheim. The Braves will have to go without starting pitcher Reynaldo López for the remainder of the contest after he got thrown out for getting into […]
For once, we have some good injury news to report here in Braves Country. Earlier today, Walt Weiss provided some new information on both injured pitcher Spencer Strider and injured catcher Sean Murphy. While Strider still seems to be working his way towards health, the return of Murphy appears to be relatively imminent. Walt Weiss […]
It’s time for what you’ve all been waiting for… the rosters are set, with some surprises to discuss. The Atlanta Braves are determined to break their three-game losing streak in game two against the Los Angeles Angels, and Walt Weiss decided to shift some things in the lineup. Drake Baldwin is keeping his slot as […]
A three-game losing streak to carry isn’t the momentum the Atlanta Braves were hoping for as they continue their West Coast road trip against the Los Angeles Angels. Let’s hope today marks the turnaround point. Reynaldo López is coming into this series with a 1.64 ERA and a 5.04 xFIP score. Only starting in two […]
Introducing a new weekly series where we review what we’ve seen, and heart from the latest week of minor league action. This past weekend we saw all the full season teams start their yearly grind so let’s take a glance at what happened. Who’s Hot Ethan Bagwell – 6IP 0H 0R 1BB 6K, 16 whiffs […]
So, we’re just over 10 games into the season for the Atlanta Braves and the on-paper results have been encouraging — even if the on-field results have the Braves just one game over .500 as they look to avoid dipping below that mark as they deal with the seemingly impossible task of winning baseball games […]
The season had been going pretty well. I wasn’t really concerned with a split with the Diamondbacks, as I figured that’s what would happen going in — in the exact fashion of winning the first two and losing the next two. But, despite how good Jose Soriano is, I figured the Braves would win on […]
Over the past few days, it certainly seems as if all the positive momentum that came from the Braves 17-run outburst last Friday has basically evaporated. The Braves have lost three straight, including last night’s 6-2 loss to the Angels. Chris Sale had one of the worst innings of his career and the Braves offense […]
In the top of the first inning, Drake Baldwin homered again to give the Braves an early 1-0 lead over the Angels. Baldwin’s incredible sophomore campaign has been something to behold. And that’s where the fun ended on Monday night. Jose Soriano absolutely cooked the Braves for eight innings, allowing just the one run on […]
The Atlanta Braves face off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in what looks to be a pitchers duel between the two staff aces. Chris Sale has only given up one run in his two starts, and José Soriano has yet to surrender an earned run this season in twelve innings. The Braves’ offense […]
The Atlanta Braves had a roller coaster ride of offense in Arizona, scoring seventeen runs in one game, but in the other two it was basically what seemed to be just Drake Baldwin carrying them. The offense is going to try and kick it back into gear against the Angels in another late game but […]
The Atlanta Braves are coming off a disappointing series against the Arizona Diamondbacks and will stay out west to face the Angels. Chris Sale will be taking the mound facing off against José Soriano, who has firmly cemented himself as the best pitcher in the Angels’ rotation. Soriano has started the season of in incredible […]
Well, the good news is that the Atlanta Braves still have yet to lose a series here in 2026. By this time last year they were doing nearly nothing but losing, so I will happily take a 6-4 start over that shambolic 2-8 start that they had over the course of their first 10 games […]
(5-4) Gwinnett Stripers 1, (2-7) Round Rock Express 0 Box Score The surging Gwinnett Stripers kept to their winning ways, this time leaning on very strong pitching to get the 1-0 win in a game that took 2 hours and 29 minutes. Starter Lucas Braun gave up just three hits over five innings of work […]
I remember I did this, about a year ago, with regard to Hector Neris. Hector Neris did not make it much further. Will Joel Payamps? I don’t know if there’s an affiliation of Joel Payamps Doomers, but if there is, I guess I’m in the club. Or the inaugural member. A veteran of seven MLB […]
Through 10 games, the Braves are 6-4. While it is true anyone would take that start to the season, it also is a bit disappointing after the Braves had to settle for a series split vs the Dbacks. After a 6-5 loss in extra innings in another game where the Braves struggled with runners in […]
Say it with me, now: “You always take a four-game series split on the road.” With that being said, it sure seemed like this could’ve been more than just a split for the Atlanta Braves as they made their annual trip out to the desert. It especially feels like a bit of a bummer when […]
