Braves Minor League Recap: Eric Hartman Hits 3 Home Runs

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 […]

Midweek games are important…but not too much

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 […]

11-4 walloping in Washington wrecks Braves’ win streak

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 […]

MRI showed no structural damage for Braves closer Raisel Iglesias

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 […]

Which of these hot takes on the Braves are the hottest?

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 […]

Braves move Raisel Iglesias to 15-Day IL and recall Dylan Dodd

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 […]

Hawks rally late behind McCollum to take Game 2

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 […]

When will we see Didier Fuentes in the majors (again)?

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. […]

Will the Falcons’ 2026 draft be physical or flashy?

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 […]

Hawks 107, Knicks 106: Scenes from choking on feathers

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 […]

Playoff Game Thread: Knicks vs. Hawks, Game 2, April 20, 2026

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 […]

Royals release former first-round pick Asa Lacy

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 […]

On The Horizon: Cubs vs. Phillies series preview

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 […]

Bryce Elder, Braves set to begin series against Nationals

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, […]
