AJ Smith-Shawver lights up the radar gun in outstanding rehab start
The Braves rotation hasn’t had many positive developments this season, and the latest injury to Martin Perez is yet another punch they must find a way to roll with; however, the version of AJ Smith-Shawver that should be returning soon is worth getting excited about.

Braves using last resort tactic on Ha-Seong Kim

Imagining the perfect Braves rotation post-trade deadline
It’s been a rough five weeks for the Braves, featuring an offense that has been the worst in baseball and a rotation that’s fallen off the face of a cliff after a hot start to the season. The latter, however, has provided reasons for optimism over the last few days. Grant Holmes turned in a […]

Braves hoping rookie Jim Jarvis can save them at shortstop
Let’s take a stroll down memory lane to 11 months ago: the Braves — expected sellers at the trade deadline — decided to essentially stand pat.

MLB insider: Rival executives view Braves as “favorite” to trade for Tarik Skubal
The crowned jewel of the trade deadline will be the reigning back-to-back AL Cy Young award winner Tarik Skubal.
