Spencer Strider injury looms as Braves dig early hole, drop opener at Mets
A loss in the first game of the season against the New York Mets was bad for the Atlanta Braves. The loss of Spencer Strider to right arm soreness during his start was worse. Strider’s departure after his fastball plummeted to 88-89 mph in the fourth inning overshadowed Atlanta’s 7-5 loss in Queens, N.Y. Friday […]
Spencer Strider exits game due to “right arm soreness”
Tonight has not gone well for the Atlanta Braves as they’re currently in a deep hole against the New York Mets in the opening game of this weekend series. They could be dealing with some more injury woes to their core players as Spencer Strider exited tonight’s game with trainer George Poulis following a concerning […]
Braves at Mets live chat and discussion: Spencer Strider vs. Nolan McLean
The Braves enter their long-awaited first game of the season against the Mets not playing their ball of the season. Having lost both games this week at the Chicago White Sox before Thursday’s postponement, Atlanta will look to avoid its first three-game losing streak since April 4-6 when it travels to the Big Apple Friday […]
Braves vs. Mets Rain Delay Chat and Discussion: June 12, 2026
The first instance of Braves vs. Mets will have to wait a little longer, as the Mets have announced that first pitch (originally set for 7:15 pm ET) will be delayed. These northeast thunderstorms, man. We’ll have updates here as we have ‘em! In the meantime, Demetrius put a fun prompt up in the feed […]
Braves activate Hurston Waldrep from IL and assign him to Triple-A, among other moves
Remember when I said earlier today that Drake Baldwin would be joining Hurston Waldrep on their rehab journey, just at different levels? Well, as it turns out, Waldrep will in fact be joining Baldwin at the Triple-A level — just not on rehab. Just a few minutes ago, the Braves announced that Waldrep had been […]
Mauricio Dubon leading off for Braves’ opener at Mets
With Ronald Acuña Jr. back on the injured list, the Braves are back in the market for a leadoff hitter for at least the next handful of days. After Michael Harris II (0-for-5, three strikeouts) didn’t handle the role well Wednesday at the White Sox, Atlanta will give Mauricio Dubon a chance to top the […]
Spencer Strider, Braves finally face Mets, looking to avoid 3-game skid
After losing the first two games of a series for the first time this season, the Braves didn’t even get a chance to salvage a game from their White Sox series on Thursday, with the final game postponed to August due to inclement weather. One could make a case for that being a positive (chance […]
Drake Baldwin will begin rehab stint with Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday
The day after Hurston Waldrep made his first rehab stint, we now have news that Waldrep will have a partner joining him on his rehab journey. They won’t be in the same level but it’s still truly a sight for sore eyes to see this particular guy getting back into action. The Gwinnett Stripers have […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Hurston Waldrep Rehabs with Columbus
It was a busy day across the Atlanta Braves farm system with a few performances and appearances worthy of headlines. The biggest of these was the first full season appearance for Hurston Waldrep on his rehab journey, and even though he had a bit of trouble late in his outing overall there was plenty to […]
Are you watching the World Cup?
It’s a Friday, the World Cup is happening, this is the lowest-hanging fruit for a daily question. In theory, we are really into the World Cup. My wife’s family used to do a very cool thing where they’d actually go to the World Cup every time it happened, folding it into a vacation and catching […]
Braves News: Postponement in Chicago, mock draft, and more
The Atlanta Braves were unable to seek a win on Thursday evening, as the series finale against the Chicago White Sox was a washout. The game will be made up on August 20th at 2:10 ET. The road trip has continued to New York, where the Braves face the Mets in a three-game series. First […]
Braves at White Sox postponed to August 20 due to rain
Welp! The Atlanta Braves will just have to lick their wounds and move on instead of trying to take a chance at potentially salvaging this series in Chicago against the White Sox. Both teams were fortunate enough to play through a window on Wednesday night but they won’t be so lucky here on Thursday night, […]
Braves versus White Sox rain delay updates
It’s raining in Chicago, y’all. The weather has not been conducive to playing baseball most of the afternoon in Chicago. Here’s a forecast. Looks decent at 10pm and it appears that MLB wants this game to happen and happen in front of 25 people. Stay tuned for updates. 8:10 PM UPDATE: There is no update […]
Braves at White Sox chat and discussion: Martin Perez vs. Anthony Kay
Is this game going to happen? Usually I can’t wait for the game, but as I noted in the preview, this has been the least … any positive adjective I can conjure up series so far. Maybe this game gets postponed due to weather? If it doesn’t, maybe the Braves can actually beat the White […]
Mauricio Dubón leads off for Braves as they attempt to salvage White Sox series
I’m going to start this off by giving Dugout Radar a shout-out. In case you’ve never heard of it, it’s a website that does its best to give you an idea of how likely it is to see the tarp on the field for any given ball game across Major League baseball. As of right […]
Braves in unfamiliar position as they look to salvage a game behind Martin Perez
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve been kind of checked out during this series. The Braves’ 2026 season has been very exciting so far, but there’s just been a confluence of events that have sort of made me pay less attention than to any other set so far this season: Anyway, put […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Isaiah Drake homers twice, doubles in Rome win
H (33-32) Gwinnett Stripers 2, (36-29) Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 14 Box Score Based on the score above, one can infer that not much went right for Gwinnett on Wednesday. Victor Mederos got the start and more or less got shelled. Across two innings, Mederos gave up five runs on four hits while issuing four walks […]
Braves News: Ronald Acuna injury update, JR Ritchie returns, more
Well just as Drake Baldwin seemed to be nearing his return, the Braves will now be without Ronald Acuna for at least 10 days, with a hamstring strain. The Braves just can’t seem to get all of their stars healthy and playing well together at once, even as they are performing extremely well this season. […]
Braves squander Sale start and lose another one-run game to drop series to White Sox
We’re all acutely aware this is the third series loss of the season, but it is unfortunately the first one where the Braves have dropped the first two games. The fact that it took until June 10th to happen… I’m holding onto that really tight with both hands. Chris Sale’s outing was reminiscent of his last […]
Braves vs. Chicago White Sox Chat and Discussion: Chris Sale vs. Davis Martin
The Dugout Radar is not looking fantastic for tonight’s start time of 7:40 pm ET… we’ve dealt with so much weather lately. ICYMI Roster moves: Braves place Ronald Acuña Jr. on IL, add Rowdy Tellez to roster, JR Ritchie recalled, James Karinchak selected to major league roster Pitching matchup: Braves turn to Chris Sale to […]
Ronald Acuña Jr. diagnosed with Grade 1 hamstring strain for second time in as many months
Earlier today, the Atlanta Braves moved both Tyler Kinley and Ronald Acuña Jr. to the IL in a pair of separate roster moves. Acuña’s injury is the most recent one for what’s turning into a serious concern when it comes to him and lower-body injuries and now we have a clearer idea of what was […]
Michael Harris II leads off, Austin Wynns starts second straight game in Game 2 vs. White Sox
The Braves are looking to force a rubber match tomorrow with a win tonight behind Chris Sale. Chicago waited until the last second to confirm it, but they will indeed send Davis Martin to the mound to face the Ronald Acuña Jr.-less Braves. Upside for us, downside for his teammates? More time for pranks, maybe. (The […]
Braves place Ronald Acuña Jr. on IL, add Rowdy Tellez to roster
The big advantage of having a blazing two-plus months and MLB’s best record? You can afford to ease off the gas here and there. The disadvantage? Your fans have to watch a team that sometimes eases off the gas. While I have no idea how long Ronald Acuña Jr. will actually be out as a result […]
Braves turn to Chris Sale to even things up in Chicago
Chris Sale’s former team road tour continues and concludes this series as he’s set to take the mound at Rate Field against the Chicago White Sox. It goes without saying, and he probably already thinks this way as an ace, but going six innings / giving some length tonight would be ideal after last night’s […]
JR Ritchie recalled, James Karinchak selected to major league roster
Prior to tonight’s game in Chicago, the Braves have made a few bullpen-bolstering moves. The expected: after last night’s blown save versus the White Sox, Carlos Carrasco re-enters the DFA spin cycle. Let’s see if the fourth go-around looks a lot like the last three and if we’ll be seeing him soon enough. In his […]
