The group over at Overslot Baseball has come out with an interesting and fun new tool ahead of the 2026 MLB Draft, giving us a mock draft simulator to play with, just like there is for the NFL and NBA drafts. I would recommend giving it a try for yourself if you have a few […]
(6-8) Nashville Sounds 1, (10-5) Gwinnett Stripers 5 Box Score This game will forever go down as the Jim Jarvis takeover game as the shortstop had quite the impact on the game. In his first at bat of the game he took a 93 MPH four-seam fastball and hit it 395’ at 107 MPH. He’s […]
This season couldn’t have started much better for the Braves, at least to date. They are the only team that hasn’t yet lost a series (they did split one, though), they have baseball’s second-best record (behind the Dodgers, tied with the Padres), they’re top ten in both position player and pitching fWAR, and they’re top […]
Well here we are, folks — our Atlanta Braves are 16 games deep into this season and they are in a pretty solid groove. They’ve dropped at least one game to every team that they’ve played this season but they’ve also taken two games off of every team that they’ve played so far. That was […]
The Hawks completed their most successful regular season since 2020-21, entering the playoff bracket directly without going through the Play-In Tournament. As a results of their loss to the Miami Heat, the Toronto Raptors win, and the Orlando Magic loss all today, the Hawks finished sixth in the Eastern Conference by virtue of losing the […]
The reports of the Braves’ offensive demise were greatly exaggerated. A night after the lineup was blanked for the first time since last July, the Braves awakened with a vengeance, running away with a 13-1 win over the Cleveland Guardians to win their third rubber match of the season. With the victory, Atlanta is the […]
The Miami Heat concluded a turbulent regular season with a dominant 143-117 win over the shorthanded Atlanta Hawks Sunday inside Kaseya Center. Despite a mini third-quarter Hawks run, Miami, with a full cast of characters minus Pelle Larsson, was in cruise control the whole way. Among those missing for the Hawks included Jalen Johnson, Nickeil […]
The post Heat win regular season finale over Hawks, but remain No. 10 seed appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
The Braves, winners of their first two rubber matches of the regular season, will look to make it three in a row and stand alone as the last major league team to not lose a series this season when they host the Cleveland Guardians for Sunday Night Baseball. We could be in for quite a […]
The Atlanta Hawks (46-35) travel to South Beach for a glorified exhibition game against the Miami Heat (42-39). They can secure the fifth seed with either a win or an Orlando Magic win over the Boston Celtics today and that would mean a series with the Cavaliers. Otherwise, they’ll be the sixth seed and face […]
News out of the Atlanta Braves clubhouse this afternoon is that starting pitcher Martin Pérez has been designated for assignment and left-handed reliever Dylan Dodd has been recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett. Pérez, who the team brought in as a minor league free agent, didn’t make the Opening Day roster but was brought-up to the big […]
With Michael Harris Jr. on the paternity list and Eli White day-to-day with plantar fasciitis, Mauricio Dubon will make his second straight start in center field for Sunday night’s finale of the Braves-Guardians series in Atlanta. Dubon will hit eighth in the lineup followed by Jorge Mateo, who will make his second straight start at […]
Two teams will enter, one team will leave when the last teams that haven’t lost a series this season, the Atlanta Braves and Cleveland Guardians, battle Sunday night in a rubber match at Truist Park. The Braves will be looking to bounce back from a 6-0 shutout Saturday night, their first time being blanked since […]
Saturday night’s middle game between the Atlanta Braves and the Cleveland Guardians certainly ended in disastrous fashion. With that being said, it could’ve gone off the rails much earlier than it did and it’s a credit to starting pitcher Martín Pérez that the Braves stayed in the game. Now granted, the lineup had absolutely nothing […]
Another up and down fourth consecutive play-in season is almost in the books for the Miami Heat, as they are set for their home finale versus the visiting Atlanta Hawks. Surprisingly enough, there’s still something to play for in this final game for Miami. With a Heat win and potential Charlotte Hornets loss in their […]
The post GAME PREVIEW: Heat set for regular-season finale inside Kaseya Center versus Hawks appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Saturday saw all four affiliates in the Atlanta Braves system in action, as the teams earned a split on the day. The biggest highlight on the day had to be the Brett Sears scoreless outing, but we also saw Juan Mateo return from injury, Lucas Braun throw five solid innings, and both John Gil and […]
Well the Braves had a bit of a dud on Saturday night, but reinforcements are making their way to Atlanta, as Spencer Strider and Sean Murphy will be on minor league rehab assignments this week. They will also be without Michael Harris and likely functionally Eli White for a few days, as Michael Harris tends […]
Things we predicted in the preview: a José Ramírez homer, and the Guardians fighting hard to even up the series. Both things would come to pass as the Braves were shut out for the first time this season, 6-0. The Guardians put together a more complete performance on all fronts. Braves pitching issued a season-high […]
Martín Pérez will lead the Braves against Parker Messick and the Guardians in the first City Connect Saturday of 2026. Side note, this picture seems to be from the elaborate light show we now deploy when the opposing team makes a pitching change. They are definitely making use of those state-of-the-art lights and projections… thoughts? […]
Ahead of Game 2 of the Braves-Guardians series Saturday, manager Walt Weiss provided a few injury updates about the roster. In the good news column, Weiss shared that Spencer Strider is set to begin his rehab assignment from the oblique strain which sidelined him to begin the season on Thursday after throwing a live batting-practice […]
Firstly, congratulations are in order for Michael Harris II and his wife, Esther. ICYMI, Michael was placed on the paternity list earlier today and we hope to hear happy news about baby boy Harris soon. MHIII? We shall see! More on the corresponding roster moves here, including a return for Luke Williams. As a result, […]
The NL East leading Atlanta Braves have announced some joyous news before Saturday night’s home game versus the Cleveland Guardians. I didn’t know Michael was anticipating, which makes me even more excited. Michael Harris will go on the paternity list. Infielder slash part time outfielder slash emergency late inning reliever Luke Williams will join the […]
Happy City Connect Saturday to all who celebrate. Which, to be clear, should be everyone. Last night’s Dale Murphy-honoring offensive outburst propelled the Braves to a Game 1 win, teeing up the chance for a series win in Game 2 tonight. In case you were wondering, the Braves’ records in the previous City Connect uniforms […]
According to Jon Heyman, the Mets will call up Craig Kimbrel before today’s game against the Athletics. Kimbrel, a 16-year veteran who was an All-Star with the Braves, Phillies, Cubs, and Red Sox, signed a minor league deal with the Mets in January. Kimbrel is currently fifth all time with 440 career saves, just ahead […]
On Wednesday, reports surfaced of former Kansas City Chiefs right tackle Jawaan Taylor signing with the Atlanta Falcons on a one-year deal. According to ESPN, Taylor “is likely to step right in as the Falcons’ starting tackle” following the sudden retirement of Kaleb McGary, a former first-round pick who started 92 games for the Falcons […]
These are the results to the Hawks Reacts survey posted earlier this week. Just yesterday, the Hawks clinched their 50th playoffs appearance in franchise history after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team will have one final regular season game Sunday against the Heat, but then they will turn their focus to either a series against the New […]
