Chicago Cubs vs. Atlanta Braves preview, Thursday 5/14, 6:15 CT
Thursday notes… Cubs lineup: Braves lineup: Ben Brown, RHP vs. Chris Sale, LHP Ben Brown threw exceptionally well last Friday against the Rangers, throwing four no-hit innings, with 31 strikes in 46 pitches, allowing just one walk. He’ll likely be allowed to go a bit farther tonight, though I wouldn’t expect more than maybe 65 […]

Braves repeat series-opening lineup in series finale against Cubs
The Atlanta Braves are going for a sweep against the Chicago Cubs, which would cap off a fantastic six-game stretch if the Braves were able to pull it off. Things went well enough against right-handed Cubs starter Colin Rea in the first game and after shaking things up against the lefty Shota Imanaga in the […]
Hawks’ center target possesses underrated skill that could make him the missing piece
If Aday Mara's promising outside shooting from the combine can translate, Atlanta can't let him slip out of their hands.

Hawks can put finishing touches on budding roster by drafting Labaron Philon Jr.
The Atlanta Hawks are close to building one of the most complete starting lineups in the NBA. Drafting Labaron Philon Jr. would finish the job.
Hawks must use overlooked asset to their advantage as draft night looms
The Hawks may have an overlooked trade asset as the 2026 NBA Draft approaches. Zaccharie Risacher’s uncertain future could help Atlanta pursue a bigger move.
Falcons 2026 schedule: Tracking rumors, leaks, and confirmed games
The schedule release will kick off at 8 p.m. tonight, and then we’ll know when the Falcons are playing which teams and how much we should lose our minds over all of that. For what it’s worth, the Falcons seem to be preparing to drop their schedule a little earlier at 7:30, which is nice […]
Will Mauricio Dubon be a Brave in 2027?
I’m not going to argue one way or another, I’m just throwing the question out there. The Braves got Mauricio Dubon in a salary dump. The Honduran utility man had a standout defensive year in 2025, accumulating 2.2 fWAR in just under 400 PAs, but that wasn’t enough for the Astros to be interested in […]
Braves 4, Cubs 1: Shōta Imanaga shines again, but the offense is still missing
Shōta Imanaga is pitching like the ace everyone hoped he would be. Imanaga threw seven outstanding innings (and one batter into the eighth, and that inning led to the Cubs’ undoing), the third time this year he’s thrown seven. But Phil Maton could not hold a 1-1 tie together and the Cubs lost to the […]
Braves News: Injury updates, Eric Hartman, more
Some good stuff has been happening on the farm for this Braves franchise this year, as a number of position-player prospects have been really showing out, including shortstops John Gil and Tate Southesene. Perhaps the most impressive has been 2024 20th round pick, Canadian centerfielder Eric Hartman. Hartman joined Baseball America’s top 100 prospects list […]
Steelers 2026 Week 1 opponent revealed in schedule leak
The Pittsburgh Steelers will reportedly host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1 of the 2026 season. The Steelers are very familiar with new Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski, as he was the head coach of the Cleveland Browns from 2020-25. The Falcons sport a new quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa, who was released by the Miami […]

Braves vs Cubs chat and discussion: JR Ritchie vs Shota Imanaga
The stage is set, and the Chicago Cubs are looking for a get -back against the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves. As leaders of the central themselves, they’re not going to be an easy team to keep at bay, especially if they can get some early runs. The Braves, however, are known to find their ways […]
Michael Penix Jr. throwing at rookie minicamp was another small but good sign for his recovery
First, Michael Penix Jr. was spotted dancing at his wedding. Then he tossed some passes at Falcons rookie minicamp. The logical next step is dropping 350 yards in Week 1. I kid, but we’ve been looking for concrete good signs about Penix’s recovery given that it’s a significant ACL injury to return from and the […]
Chicago Cubs vs. Atlanta Braves preview, Wednesday 5/13, 6:15 CT
ICYMI, the Cubs signed Liam Hendriks to a minor-league deal today. Can’t hurt, I suppose. Wednesday notes… Cubs lineup: Braves lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. JR Ritchie, RHP Shōta Imanaga has been just outstanding this year. Last seven starts: 1.70 ERA, 0.850 WHIP, 46 strikeouts in 42.1 innings with only three home runs allowed. The […]

Sandy León enters Braves lineup in Cubs game 2
After ending yesterday’s game against the Chicago Cubs with a one-hitter, the Atlanta Braves are looking to secure an early series win and a whole new offensive plan with rookie JR Ritchie on the mound. Let’s look at who we have. The one question that’s been surfacing is, “Where’s Dominic Smith on the starting lineup?” […]
Hawks' hopes of draft steal diminished after recent shocking developments
Aday Mara would be a perfect addition for the Hawks, but he may not even be around at pick eight if teams' rumored interest is true.
Looking at the History of the 9th Pick in the modern MLB Draft
With the MLB Draft only about two months away I thought it would be good to examine the history of the players selected with the picks the Atlanta Braves have in the 2026 MLB Draft. With the Braves picking ninth overall for their first selection, I decided to start by looking at the history of […]
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 42
Win 10, lose three, win 10, lose three. Win 10 again? Unlikely. But one of the more curious 26 game stretches we’ve ever seen has just concluded. What will be next? We can’t know. But the schedule doesn’t ease up. This Braves team is no joke. Coming off of a down season, experts were divided […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Tate Southisene homers
Tate Southisene has had about the best start to his career that the Atlanta Braves could have dreamed of, putting together a monster campaign through a month and a half for Augusta and living up to his first round selection. His two RBI and home run led Augusta to a win to start their series. […]
Are the Braves going to find another backup catcher?
In the offseason, the Braves knew that there’d be some issues with Sean Murphy’s availability. They signed Jonah Heim on February 10. That move turned into 45 PAs for Heim, where he ended up barely above replacement thanks to A) one big game at Coors Field in his final outing with the team and B) […]
Braves 5, Cubs 2: It’s hard to win when you have only one hit
Look at it this way. At least the Cubs scored some runs in this game. Not enough runs, as they lost to the Braves 5-2 in the series opener in Atlanta. Colin Rea and Grant Holmes matched zeroes through two innings, and the Cubs failed to score in the top of the third. The Braves […]
