Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
Good morning Birdland, These Orioles sure do know how to wear out any goodwill they have built up with a quickness. Coming back from a successful road trip, which concluded with a streak-stopping win up in Boston, the O’s began their brief homestand with a brutal 7-6 loss to the visiting Braves. Yours truly was […]
The Atlanta Braves’ weekend series against the Baltimore Orioles started off strong after Friday’s 7-6 win in extra innings. Matt Olson was the man of the hour and gave Atlanta the lead in 10th, courtesy of his three-run homer. Things were shaky for Atlanta in the bottom half of the 10th inning, but fortunately the […]
Training camps are opening, and fantasy football news is going to start coming thick and fast in the coming days. This is it. This is what we’ve waited for. In the words of Kevin McCallister, don’t get scared now. And ... read more »
With 9 games to go to trade deadline, O's lose Atlanta series opener
This is some pretty rare video from 1964, of a Game 7 between the (then) St. Louis Hawks and the (then) San Francisco Warriors. There are at least three Hall of Famers in this game: Wilt Chamberlain and Nate Thurmond for the Warriors, and Bob Pettit for the Hawks. San Francisco started both Chamberlain, who […]
Based on the New England Patriots’ 2026 offseason moves, the organization made improving quarterback Drake Maye’s offensive weapons a priority. In the process, the Patriots added to a previously aging tight end room. Following an Austin Hooper exit to the Atlanta Falcons in free agency, New England signed hybrid tight end Julian Hill. It also […]
The Los Angeles Lakers reportedly land Jonathan Kuminga after the Atlanta Hawks prefer their proposal over that of the Cleveland Cavaliers for the upcoming NBA season. Jonathan Kuminga is once again back at the center of attention this offseason, with his destination for the upcoming NBA season still uncertain. While the Cleveland Cavaliers have shown interest in the forward, it appears the Los Angeles Lakers possess a superior proposal. According to ESPN’s Jed Fontaine, Jonathan Kuming...
The Orioles had plenty of chances, but failed to cash in on enough of them, wasting a great start from Trevor Rogers and losing the series opener to the Braves 7-6 in extra innings on Friday night in Baltimore. This was yet another strong showing for Rogers. The lefty worked seven innings, six of which […]
Holding down the Braves’ offense for nine innings is doable, especially if your pitchers are able to keep the ball in the yard. But the Baltimore Orioles learned in Friday’s series opener against Atlanta that it gets harder the longer a game goes on. The Braves used Matt Olson’s two-out, three-run homer to explode for […]
When you are trying to chase down several other teams in the playoff race, and games between now and the trade deadline are running short, every series feels big. This weekend’s clash with the Atlanta Braves is no different. Our very own John Beers provided a run down of the matchup earlier today. The Orioles […]
The Miami Marlins (52-51) welcome the San Diego Padres (50-53) to South Beach this weekend. It is a crucial three-game set for both teams’ playoff hopes. Each club has struggled following the All-Star break. The loser of this series will kiss their postseason chances goodbye. Thursday Results The Padres fell short for a second consecutive […]
It would seem we’re going to have to wait at least one more day to see Ronald Acuña Jr.‘s return to the Braves. While it was reported he could be back as soon as tonight, the team hasn’t yet announced his return from his rehab assignment and he’s not in the starting lineup the Braves […]
There aren’t many things that can be guaranteed in this world, but in about 10 days, the Braves will have a reshaped organization of some sort. That much is for certain. Atlanta has a boatload of areas they need to upgrade, a roster good enough to compete for a championship, and the prospect capital to […]
Every offseason, I break down the NFL offensive trends that will shape the upcoming season, including a deep dive into passing vs. rushing touchdown rates for all 32 NFL teams. The goal for these articles is straightforward. We are monitoring the league's current state to identify any outliers, which we can then incorporate into the [...]
When it comes to the Braves’ prospects, nobody has shown enough to have earned the title “untouchable.” However, Alex Anthopoulos did say there’s at least one of their younger players who’d be very difficult to part with. “Off Limits? No,” Anthopoulos said. “We actually had a meeting today talking about that exact scenario. It depends, […]
A look at the Braves' situation heading into the trade deadline, along with an updated look at their farm system.
The Falcons invested heavily into their secondary over the past two seasons, and that investment has resulted in one of the strongest position groups on the team. Kevin Knight and Tre’Shon Diaz discuss Atlanta’s cornerback and safety rooms, including the presumptive starters and roster contenders on the outside, in the slot, and on the back […]
The early returns on the Braves’ 2025 top draft selections have been extremely encouraging, especially given the position they play. Shortstop has been a black hole in Atlanta for several years now, and while Jim Jarvis has sparked some confidence that he could be next in line, the future of the position is likely further […]
As has been the case for much of this season, the Orioles come into this weekend’s series vs. the Braves with a point to prove. Baltimore thought they proved they were ready to be playoff contenders by sweeping the Astros in Houston. That point was then undercut by losing two out of three in Fenway—though […]
With a bunch of starting pitchers expected to be on the move ahead of the trade deadline, and the Braves desperately searching for rotation help, it would be a shame if Alex Anthopoulos didn’t come away with at least one impact arm. How big will he go is the question. Tarik Skubal has been linked […]
For the third time in the four-game series the San Diego Padres lost a one-run game to the Atlanta Braves. The Padres struck first against Braves pitcher Chris Sale with a three-run second inning, but after a four-run fourth inning the Braves held a 5-3 lead and that deficit proved too much to overcome as […]
Tyler Kinley’s relationship to the Braves has been an odd one over the last year. Before 2025, Kinley had a career 107/102/109 line (ERA-/FIP-/xFIP-) and 1.2 fWAR in just under 260 innings. Most of that value was accrued in 2022, when his season was cut short by injury. It’s also important to keep in mind […]
Among the issues in Atlanta, the Braves bullpen is near the bottom of the list. That said, the injury to Robert Suarez — whose return still doesn’t appear imminent — has exposed some chinks in the armor once you get past the first 4-5 guys. Braves’ Proven Reliable Relievers Raisel Iglesias Dylan Lee Didier Fuentes […]
The Atlanta Braves secured another series win after Thursday’s 6-5 defeat over the San Diego Padres. The Braves took the series 3-1, making it their second series win since returning from the All-Star Break. Chris Sale got the start in the series finale, where he struck out 11 in six innings. He surrendered three runs, […]
Tons of injury news for the Atlanta Braves, as a trio of impact players could be rejoining the club in the near future. Walt Weiss said yesterday that Acuña is ready. He’ll likely rejoin the team this weekend in Baltimore. There was a bit of a hold-your-breath moment in yesterday’s Stripers game, though, as Acuña […]
