The Braves’ June Swoon Hits a New Low in San Diego
If you stayed up until nearly 1:00 AM Eastern to watch the Braves try to pull out a win in San Diego, I apologize. But I was right there with you. Grant Holmes started the game, and it was a very Grant Holmes type of outing. He didn’t make it through five innings, largely due […]
Major reinforcement could soon rejoin Braves
The Braves have a starting pitching problem. June has exposed that clearly, with the rotation currently sporting a 5.80 ERA on the month. Outside of Chris Sale, there’s not a single arm on the roster the Braves should feel comfortable handing the ball to in a playoff game. There’s an expectation they’ll be one of […]
A dismal season for Ha-Seong Kim leaves Braves in a major pickle at shortstop
No organization that’s been around as long as the Braves avoids a few miscues when it comes to trades and free agency. B.J. Upton and Sean Murphy are a couple that come to mind off the top of the head in recent memory — but Ha-Seong Kim is quickly working his way up the list. The […]
Where do the Hawks stand one day before the NBA Draft?
The Hawks made their first two significant moves of the offseason on Sunday, bringing back CJ McCollum on a one-year deal and trading for Aaron Wiggins. The roster already looks deeper than it did when the season ended a couple of months ago, and more moves are on the horizon. Picking up Jonathan Kuminga‘s $24 […]
Major Atlanta Braves trade target likely unavailable
The Braves have been linked to All-Star outfielder Byron Buxton for years now. The reasoning has always been obvious. The Twins haven’t exactly been championship contenders, while the Braves have been and desperately needed an upgrade in the outfield. Add in the fact that Buxton is a Georgia native with a full no-trade clause, and […]
Can Bryce Elder stick in Braves rotation for much longer?
One of the most pleasant surprises over the first two months of the Braves season was the resurgence of Bryce Elder back into his 2023 All-Star form — except this time there were actually signs the success was sustainable. When Elder had his brief moment in the sun a few years back, all the underlying […]
Report: Several executives believe Braves are “sleeper” team for Tarik Skubal
If one thing has become clear over the Braves recent rough stretch of play, it’s that they have a lot of work left to do at the trade deadline. The need to upgrade their left field platoon and DH. Some more relief help should always be viewed as a plus. They should probably take a […]
Hawks continue active offseason with two significant moves
It was never a secret that the Atlanta Hawks would be among the most active teams this offseason. The work began in the front office, with the team extending general manager Onsi Saleh, who was already drawing interest from other franchises after just one year as Atlanta’s lead decision-maker. The Hawks then followed that by […]
Ken Rosenthal on Braves adding a starting pitcher at the trade deadline
The Braves revealed the plan for Spencer Strider moving forward. He’ll be shut down for the next four weeks, then take another MRI. If everything checks out, he’ll resume throwing. Following a consultation with Dr. Keith Meister today, RHP Spencer Strider will be shut down from throwing for four weeks and then undergo a follow-up […]
Braves get best possible news on Spencer Strider injury
We finally have the information we’ve all been waiting for on Spencer Strider, and it’s the best possible scenario. According to Mark Bowman, Strider avoided structural damage to the elbow. It does not look like he is going to need surgery, and his visit to Dr. Keith Meister is just focused on coming up with […]
A potential top Braves trade target already receiving heavy interest
The most glaring need for the Braves as the trade deadline approaches is starting pitching. Their current rotation is Chris Sale and hope for the best, with 35-year-old Martin Perez their second most reliable starter. That is not going to cut it come October — and while some internal options offer a potential solution, betting […]
Report: James Pearce Jr. expected to be present for Falcons mandatory minicamp

James Pearce will reportedly be at #Falcons mandatory minicamp this week, per FOX 5 Atlanta. — Miles Garrett (@MilesGarrettTV) June 15, 2026 In late May, it was reported that the charges against James Pearce Jr. […]
Four areas Braves must fix as halfway point of the season approaches
The Braves are experiencing a type of adversity they haven’t faced much all season. Arguably their two best players are on the IL in Drake Baldwin and Ronald Acuña Jr., Spencer Strider just went down with what looks to be a season-ending injury, and they’ve lost four of their last five. The holes on the […]
How does the Spencer Strider injury affect the outlook of the Braves rotation?
We are still awaiting the final diagnosis on the injury Spencer Strider suffered on Friday against the Mets. He’s already been placed on the 15-day IL with what the Braves are calling right elbow inflammation, but Walt Weiss said ahead of Sunday’s game that they don’t have a “definitive” answer yet. Strider will be evaluated […]
The three year nightmare continues for Spencer Strider
For the first time all season, the Braves are facing significant adversity. Not only have they lost three straight for just the second time in 2026, but they may have also lost Spencer Strider for the remainder of the season. Strider gave up seven runs in just three innings, but the real story was the […]
Hawks continue to be linked to Jaylen Brown as Giannis trade conversations escalate
The trade conversations surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo have escalated significantly over the last few days. While Miami looked like the clear frontrunner, Boston is making a late push and is now being viewed as a legitimate threat. For that to happen, Jaylen Brown would have to be involved — which is where the Hawks enter the […]
Braves announce a slew of roster moves ahead of series with Mets
The Braves announced a slew of roster moves ahead of their series with the Mets. Hurston Waldrep has returned from his rehab assignment and been optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett — really just a procedural move. He threw 53 pitches over 3.2 innings in his third rehab start on Thursday and will need at least a […]
Drake Baldwin set to play tomorrow, return to the Braves potentially days away
The Braves have officially announced that Drake Baldwin will begin a rehab assignment on Saturday with the Gwinnett Stripers. ‼️ BALDY'S BACK ‼️ The 2025 NL Rookie of the Year is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Gwinnett tomorrow in Jacksonville, presented by @NorthsideHosp. 📰: https://t.co/g1ZpPr2DTQ pic.twitter.com/fHrGN3Htb2 — Gwinnett Stripers (@GoStripers) June 12, 2026 […]
