Mauricio Dubon leads off, Ha-Seong Kim plays short vs Mets
Hoping to even the series in a duel of average-ish pitching, Atlanta is batting Mauricio Dubon at leadoff, starting Ha-Seong Kim at shortstop, and DHing Jorge Mateo, with Sandy Leon starting at catcher…whoof. This lineup desperately needs the return of Drake Baldwin and Ronald Acuna. Austin Riley remembering how to hit like a star player […]
Braves look to beat New York behind Martin Perez
In a bit of a rough patch of play and missing two of their best bats in Ronald Acuna and Drake Baldwin, the Braves are hoping to be able to beat the Mets in game 2 of their series behind Martin Perez. It appears likely that Sean Manaea will get some bulk innings for the […]
Spencer Strider hits Injured List, Braves recall Anthony Molina
Well, the sad writing was brightly stenciled onto the proverbial wall last night, and there goes Spencer Strider to the Injured List, again: Strider departs, perhaps temporarily, with a 127 ERA-, 131 FIP-, and 103 xFIP-. Despite the hope that he’d build on an extended but uneven stretch in the rotation after returning from a […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Conor Essenburg homers twice for Augusta
Friday brought a ton of action with it as Atlanta’s minor league teams were in full action. Let’s get into it. (35-32) Gwinnett Stripers 5, (36-31) Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 4 Box Score They needed extra innings to do it, but Gwinnett came away with a win on Friday, beating Jacksonville 5-4. The Stripers bounced back […]
How much would MLB charge me to see all Braves games?
There wasn’t a time when we got to see all of the regular season games on TBS or the Fox family of sports networks. There were always carveouts, but always for another cable channel or an over-the-air network. Basic cable was how we saw TBS, so moving to ESPN or one of the networks just […]
Braves News: Spencer Strider exits, Hurston Waldrep activated, and more
Not only did the Atlanta Braves drop the series opener to the New York Mets 7-5, but things remained difficult on the injury front. Spencer Strider got the start and struggled early on. He exited in the fourth inning due to shoulder and elbow soreness and likely undergo an MRI today. Once again, the Braves […]
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. […]
