While a lot of the regulars for the Braves have started to really get going at the plate, there are still a smal handful of players who are scuffling about while looking to finally get a foothold on this current season of baseball. One of those regulars is Mike Yastrzemski, who has gotten off to […]
Falcons fans, it’s NFL Draft Eve! The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, and while our beloved Falcons don’t have a first-rounder, the team still has five picks and a lot of buzz around a potential trade for tight end Kyle Pitts. Kevin Knight and Adnan Ikic deliver their boldest draft predictions and final […]
The Nationals offense has shown they can beat teams in several ways. They can hit for power, string together hits and play some small ball. However, they showed a new element last night. The Nats took advantage of 12 walks to beat the Braves and put up 11 runs. This was the first time since […]
The week started off with a wild set of games on the Atlanta Braves farm system. The Gwinnett Stripers, led by the rehabbing Spencer Strider, managed to get no-hit but still come out with a win in the game. Meanwhile Rome took the opposite path, obliterating a good Greensboro pitching staff with six home runs […]
Losing is no fun. If it’s to the North Avenue Trade School in any aspect of competition, it’s even worse. In one respect, it was a let-down that two top-five teams faced off Tuesday night at Truist Park and that it was not able to be watched on TV. On the other – perhaps it […]
The Atlanta Braves announced Tuesday that closer Raisel Iglesias was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. Backdated to April 20, the move comes after he slept badly on his shoulder. Fortunately, his MRI did not reveal any structural damage and it is likely that his time on the injured list […]
On April 21, 2024, the Braves began the day with a six-game winning streak. It ended in fairly routine fashion: the Braves took an early 3-0 lead over the Rangers, but Darius Vines couldn’t prop it up, and they lost, 6-4. That was the last time (before now) the Braves had a winning streak of […]
The Atlanta Braves got what is hopefully good news related to closer Raisel Iglesias as it was conveyed to reporters prior to tonight’s game that an MRI showed only inflammation with no structural damage to his shoulder. As MLB.com’s Mark Bowman relayed, the team hopes Iglesias will only stay on the IL for a limited […]
The Braves stormed into DC and knocked off the Nats in game one of the series. Now, the Nats will look to even things up in their four game set with the division leaders. To do so, they need to tighten up defensively. The errors have been piling up for the Nats lately. This is […]
It’s been a bit of a tradition around here to have a Community Bold Predictions post. Last week, Demetrius put a boldest prediction post on our Feed. We got some interesting feedback. Let’s sift through these and have a look at some of the great ones. Win the whole thing This is a mainstay of […]
The Atlanta Falcons will continue to say they’re going to draft the best player available, as Terry Fontenot did, but that will likely look different under a new regime. More to the point, the Falcons have to weigh the idealized BPA (which would be truly position-agnostic) versus the realities of their situation (significant roster holes […]
Thanks to days of debilitating back pain, I am currently either in excruciating pain regularly or doped up on a muscle relaxer that leaves me dizzier than Dean. As I watched the Knicks slowly but surely piss away last night’s game and a potential 2-0 series lead, I didn’t feel that upset. Some of that, […]
Things might be going very well for the Atlanta Braves on the field but their bad luck with injuries is apparently going to just stick around. In the middle of the series in Philadelphia, Raisel Iglesias ended up being unavailable for a game because he slept badly on his shoulder overnight. All appeared to be […]
The Atlanta Hawks overcame a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to even their best-of-seven series against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Monday night, taking a 107-106 victory. CJ McCollum led all scorers with 32 points while Jonathan Kuminga added 19 points off the bench. For the Knicks, Jalen Brunson scored […]
Or, I guess, more to the point — why will we see Didier Fuentes in the majors (again)? Fuentes was scratched from his Gwinnett appearance at one point last week, prompting these two missives from Mark Bowman: At this point, I assume that when a load management opportunity presents itself, the Braves will take it. […]
Monday was another fun day for the Braves offense as they won their sixth straight game in a 9-4 victory over the Nationals. Drake Baldwin and Matt Olson had big games, while the offense as a whole once again delivered. However, the story of the game was a stretch of concern after Ronald Acuna Jr. […]
The 2026 NFL Draft offers the Atlanta Falcons an opportunity to establish a new identity under new head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Ian Cunningham. Both have stated their intentions to construct a physically-minded football team by building through the trenches. But actions speak louder than words, and it remains to be seen whether […]
The Knicks (1-1) had this one in their hands—until they didn’t. Up eight with under six minutes to play and in control most of the night, New York fell apart down the stretch, getting outscored 28-15 in a grisly fourth-quarter collapse. A string of empty trips, an impressive performance by CJ McCollum, and a late […]
The Knicks (1-0) will be back in action when they host the Hawks (0-1) in Game Two of the Eastern Conference first-round series. Thanks to a strong start by Jalen Brunson, a stronger finish by Karl-Anthony Towns, and dominating the glass, the Knicks (mostly) cruised to victory on Saturday, 113-102. Tonight, we’ll see how coach […]
Your Atlanta Hawks (0-1) look to bounce back and take control of the series against the Knicks tonight. Jock Landale (ankle sprain) has been ruled out. Starting lineup: Please join in the comments below as you follow along. Where, When, and How to Watch and Listen Location: Madison Square Garden, Manhattan, New York, NY Start Time: 8:00 […]
The draft can be a bit of a crapshoot. Injuries derail some players, while others have trouble adjusting to the professional level. Asa Lacy experienced both problems. Six years after the Royals made him the fourth overall pick, the team is finally cutting ties, releasing him outright. Lacy was an absolute stud at Texas A&M […]
Since the Cubs took two of three from the Phillies last week in Philadelphia, the Cubs swept the Mets and outscored them 18-7, and the Phillies got swept at home by the Braves, outscored 16-3. The Phillies’ flight to Chicago got in after 1 a.m. today after their loss to the Braves Sunday night. So […]
All signs have pointed to the Falcons retaining Kyle Pitts in 2026. He’s signed his franchise tender, is the best receiving tight end on a team that will be spamming that button under Kevin Stefanski, and is coming off a career season that suggest the best is yet to come for the 25-year-old mega-talent. I […]
The Nats were able to salvage their weekend series against the San Francisco Giants with a 3-0 win on Sunday, and now they’re slated to play host to the red-hot Atlanta Braves. Zack Littell gave up 6 runs in the 2nd inning of Game 1 to essentially put the game out of reach, as Daylen […]
The Atlanta Braves are coming off their first sweep of the Phillies in Philadelphia since 2016 while also leading MLB in run differential, total runs scored, team ERA, and hold the best division lead in MLB. The start for the Braves could not have been much better, especially considering they are down half their rotation, […]
