Latest news and updates about the Braves
Not much in the results department to talk about, so let’s talk about process. The Braves’ lineup today is a bit of a shuffle, but all the lefties are at the top. Drake Baldwin is leadoff, then Matt Olson is third, and Michael Harris II is fourth. A procession of righties follows, including Eli White […]

Urgh, June 2026. It was not a good month. The Braves are 9-13 so far, and lost five series (including a sweep) while only winning three. Two of those three came at the beginning of the month, too, so it’s basically been a disaster of a stretch for a team that played like they were […]
About a month ago, Braves top prospect Eric Hartman entered Baseball America’s list of the top 100 prospects in the game. Now, he’s already among the top 60 as he continues to put up one of the best minor-league seasons in the organization’s history. At about the halfway point, Hartman has 19 home runs and […]
The AJ Smith-Shawver news that Braves president of baseball operations and general manager Alex Anthopoulos shared last week in an interview with BravesVision is coming exactly to fruition. The right-handed pitcher is set to officially begin his rehab assignment Tuesday night with Single-A Augusta, the Braves announced Tuesday morning. Smith-Shawver’s first rehab start is slated […]
A baseball season can go in so many different directions. The San Diego Padres came home from a dismal 4-5 road trip, but no time to feel sorry for themselves. The homestand brought a fierce test against two of the National League’s top World Series contenders. The Padres swept the Eastern Division-leading Atlanta Braves before […]
While the Braves continue to struggle on the field, they fortunately continue to get some positive news off it regarding their young arms. The latest update is that Spencer Schwellenbach could be back in around two months, as he road back could begin in Florida in early July. That would certainly be a nice boost […]
The Philadelphia Phillies are surging, sitting just three games behind the division-leading Atlanta Braves after Don Mattingly's promotion to manager appeared to unlock a higher gear following Rob Thomson's departure. They are also a team that knows exactly what happens when you ignore rotation depth at the deadline. FanSided's Christopher Kline floated a trade proposal connecting the Phillies to Baltimore Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers as a buy-low option to bolster their depth ahead of ...
The St. Louis Cardinals begin a challenging road trip starting Tuesday night in Atlanta as they’ll do battle against the NL East division-leading Braves. Timing may be on the side of St. Louis, though, as there are some numbers that might work in their favor. If you look at their records on paper, you would […]
There’s one more off day until the Atlanta Braves are back in action on this side of the country. Hopefully the change in scenery will result in a change in fortune for the Braves, who have been on a very dire run as of late. As I mentioned with the title of a series recap […]
The Braves have a number of high-upside starting pitchers working their way back from major injuries. Hurston Waldrep made his season debut last week after undergoing surgery to remove loose bodies in his elbow at the beginning of Spring Training. AJ Smith-Shawver has begun his rehab assignment and will make his first rehab start on […]

There weren’t too many groans when the Braves decided to ink Ha-Seong Kim to a one-year, $20 million deal to return for the 2026 season. Shortstop has long been a problem area in Atlanta since Dansby Swanson left for Chicago, and Kim looked the part of an upgrade in his short stint with the team, […]
The Atlanta Braves should be looking for a left-handed starter at the MLB trade deadline. It just should not be Tarik Skubal. Skubal is the dreamy name. He is young(er), dominant, and good enough to change the entire National League…
The Braves dropped out of the top five in this week's FanGraphs Power Rankings.
We are a little over a month away from the MLB trade deadline, and if June has taught us anything, it’s that the Braves need a lot of help. The rotation must be upgraded. It’s non-negotiable if Atlanta is serious about winning the division and competing for the World Series. However, the offense can no […]
I guess this point when you consider the nasty run of form that the Braves are currently in and the fact that these games took place in California, we should be thrilled that this wasn’t a sweep. Still, it certainly didn’t feel good to essentially watch this team just completely hit the wall for the […]
The Braves will be happy once the calendar flips to July in hopes that their fortunes will change after one of their worst all-around months over the last decade. It also means they are one step closer to getting some reinforcements in the form of injured players returning and, of course, the trade deadline. Among […]
(41-38) Gwinnett Stripers 8, (45-35) Nashville Sounds 5 Box Score A continuation from Saturday’s game ended with a good result for the Gwinnett Stripers as the pitching staff did just enough to preserve an early lead to give the Stripers the win. Austin Gomber originally got the start but after rain caused the game to […]
The Braves should be eager to get home after yet another dismal road trip that saw them go 1-5 out west, much of which can be attributed to a struggling offense that scored just seven runs in five of their games. That’s probably the most shocking aspect of Atlanta’s recent rough patch. The starting pitching […]
Another veteran bat could help the Braves rebuild momentum and secure their lead over the Phillies.
Nothing caps off misery even better than immediately wheeling your approach around to something completely different to try to win a series, only to get destroyed by bloop hits, swinging bunts, and your own defensive miscues. I won’t dwell on it. This is not a great week for me, so I’ll probably do stuff like […]
June cannot end soon enough for the Atlanta Braves. It was another miserable week for the Braves, as Sunday was just the latest disappointing performance despite another awesome effort from ace Chris Sale. It truly has been an entire month of struggles for the Braves, who know see that the NL East division lead is […]
