With the unfortunate injury to Jalon Walker, other pieces of the defense will have to step up to alleviate the loss of his versatility and athleticism. According to Bleacher Report’s Top 99 defensive players ranking, the Atlanta Falcons secondary is loaded with talent to handle the loss of Walker and possibly James Pearce Jr., and […]
The Braves rotation is getting pretty crowded. Not necessarily with frontline guys, but with plenty of options to give them innings. Bryce Elder and Grant Holmes were fantastic to begin the week. AJ Smith-Shawver should rejoin the club in less than two weeks, and Reynaldo Lopez could be back around that time as well. Lopez […]
The Detroit Lions have been in contract extension talks with Jahmyr Gibbs throughout the offseason. With Bijan Robinson signing a deal with the Atlanta Falcons and Jonathan Taylor agreeing on a contract with the Indianapolis Colts, it is now Gibbs’ turn.

There are three critical pieces the Braves are hoping to get back at some point before the postseason — AJ Smith-Shawver, Spencer Schwellenbach, and Robert Suarez. Smith-Shawver has already made his season debut for the major-league club after undergoing Tommy John surgery last May, and most recently turned in a really strong appearance for the […]
Atlanta Braves star reliever Robert Suarez is recovering from a forearm injury. The Braves are closely monitoring his injury status. Atlanta is hoping to have him available for the postseason at the very least. Mark Bowman of MLB.com recently provided an update on Suarez’s injury recovery. “He’s still feeling a little soreness. Walt (Weiss) said […] The post Braves’ Robert Suarez injury recovery plan for having him ready for playoffs appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Somehow, Martin Perez and I are inextricably linked in the shimmering web that is the universe. It could be worse, perhaps. The Braves are on quite a roll, having won seven in a row. They’re also on quite a run prevention stretch as part of this winning streak (and a little beyond). Since letting the […]
This week in the NFL has been stuffed with new contracts being handed out to the league’s best. Specifically, the running back position has been getting PAID. Early Thursday morning, it was reported that the Colts and Jonathan Taylor agreed to a new two-year, $44 million extension. This came on the heels of the Falcons […]
Winning in the modern NBA takes time, and the recent moves from the Hawks and Suns confirm they're prepared to wait.
During Wednesday night’s win for the Atlanta Braves over the Miami Marlins, it was certainly interesting to see one of this team’s strategies successfully work out when it came to dealing with Eury Pérez. Two moments in particular came to mind. The first one happened in the second inning. After Ozzie Albies coaxed a walk […]
Keaton Wallace - Atlanta's main backup point guard in the early portion of last season - has signed a deal overseas, to the surprise of no one.
The Miami Heat may have finally landed their much needed 1A superstar in Giannis Antetokounmpo. But the competition in the Eastern Conference has suddenly emerged as stronger than ever this offseason. Between LeBron James and Jaylen Brown’s arrivals to the Philadelphia 76ers, Kawhi Leonard’s (pending) return to the Toronto Raptors, the Atlanta Hawks two-way wing […] The post Bam Adebayo says Heat are ‘going to go for it’ as an underdog contender in the East appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - ...

On Wednesday, the San Francisco 49ers continued to reunite defensive coordinator Raheem Morris with some of his former players, signing defensive lineman Ogbo Okoronkwo and wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge. Both veterans are coming into position groups in need of depth after the injury bug has hit the 49ers once again during training camp. Morris now […]
Two days later, and the Braves haven’t felt the effects of a relatively quiet trade deadline. If anything, the current rotation is pitching with something to prove, allowing just one run over the last 13 innings on the way to back-to-back wins. However, let’s be very clear about something: the Braves acquiring more arms at […]
Offense was fairly difficult to come by for half of Atlanta’s minor league teams in action on Wednesday, with Augusta and Columbus as the only squads to come away with a victory. However, Ethan Bagwell was dominant and the Clingstones walked things off, while there were a handful of other individual performances that stood out, […]
Training camp is typically where the hype train begins — no matter whether the team is a Super Bowl contender or not. The vibes are positive, football is around the corner, and every team still feels like they have a prayer’s chance at eternal glory. That hasn’t really been the case in Atlanta, for a […]
This is a really quick one because I uh… forgot… yesterday (and today), until now. The Braves basically acquired three guys at the Trade Deadline. One has already appeared, two have not. Which will have the biggest impact? Define that however you want.
Jonathan Taylor moved one step closer to fulfilling his desire to be an Indianapolis Colt for life.
Building a well-rounded secondary without any weaknesses is one of the most difficult challenges in roster construction. It takes sharp drafting, shrewd signings, and emphasis on assembling capable depth. No matter how star-studded the unit may look on paper, there must be backups on the roster who are ready to step in when necessary. That […]
Bryce Elder and Grant Holmes — do you think they might have heard all the negative noise after the Braves failed to add starting pitching at the trade deadline? They sure pitched like it over the last two nights. Holmes didn’t give up a run over six innings on Tuesday, with Elder looking even better, […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates were busy at the trade deadline and made several moves to help them move towards a postseason berth but there’s still one player in particular that could sign with the team and that fans would love to see in Pittsburgh. Andrew McCutchen was recently released by the Atlanta Braves after signing a […]
