The Atlanta Braves rolled into Great American Ball Park on Friday with the most wins in Major League Baseball and the league’s best winning percentage, too. So far, they’ve done nothing in their time in Cincinnati to diminish either count. Atlanta claimed Friday’s series opener by the score of 8-3 and backed it up with […]
After a three-game absence, Ha-Seong Kim returns to the Braves lineup for Sunday afternoon’s series finale in Cincinnati. Kim, who has struggled to generate momentum with a .095 batting average and no extra-base hits in 12 games and 42 at-bats after starting the season on the injured list, is getting another chance to break out […]
This week’s Braves road trip has already been a success. They’ve won two more series, bringing their series record to 16-2-1 on the season. They became the first team to reach 40 wins with Saturday’s 5-2 win over the Cincinnati Reds, reaching a season-high 21 games above .500. Atlanta looks to make it a 5-1 […]
Saturday was a rough day down on the Atlanta Braves farm system, as the teams in the organization combined to drop all six games played. Making things tougher were a JR Ritchie start that lasted just a third of an inning, plus another less than impressive start from Lucas Braun. There were some positives though, […]
This season is going astonishingly well in Atlanta. They are the first team to 40 wins despite missing half of their projected rotation, having missed time from Ronald Acuna and Drake Baldwin, Ha-Seong Kim only playing 12 games and being astonishingly bad, and Austin Riley struggling. Now Schwellenbach, Waldrep, and Smith-Shawver are progressing back towards […]
With two veteran serviceable but uninspiring pitchers on the mound in the Great American Ballpark, this had the looks of a high-scoring affair on paper. Six batters were all it took to get through the first inning, as Martin Perez walked the only baserunner and got a double-play to erase him. The Braves struck first […]
The Cincinnati Reds look to level the series in Great American Ball Park against the visiting Atlanta Braves, a veritable juggernaut who claimed the opening game of the series 8-3 last night. Brady Singer starts, and hopefully will not give up 3 homers for the third consecutive start. Lineups for both clubs listed below. Go […]

The Braves are giving two struggling infielders a break on Saturday, though for Kim this is becoming the new normal, as the $20 million shortstop is sitting for the third straight day with Jorge Mateo simply outplaying him so far this season. It’s only been 12 games for Kim, but he did not look like […]
The Braves have a chance to win their series against a solid Reds team in Cincy with a win tonight and give them a chance for another Sunday sweep. Martin Perez takes the mound for Atlanta and he is posting near-career-best numbers through 46.2 innings, with strikeout and walk rates that near his career highs […]
The Atlanta Braves continued the Carlos Carrasco saga ahead of Friday’s series opener. The club recalled right-hander Anthony Molina to Atlanta before designating Carrasco for assignment. The move marks the third time this season that Carrasco has been DFA’d. Assuming the same trend continues, he will rejoin the organization via a minor league deal. As […]
The Atlanta Braves have scored the second most runs MLB so far this season and had plans of continuing this trend while facing the Reds an their started Chris Paddack and his 6.86 ERA. The first inning started off with a bang. Ronald Acuña Jr. hit the fourth pitch he saw for a solo shot […]
The Atlanta Braves and their offense which is currently second in MLB in runs scored will to Cincinnati to take on the Reds who are 5-5 in their last ten games. The Reds have the fourth worst team ERA in MLB while sporting an offense that is right at league average being fourteenth in MLB […]
The Cincinnati Reds are back home in Great American Ball Park after a quick trip to New York and a day off on Thursday. Friday evening sees them open a homestand that will first feature the Atlanta Braves in town. The Braves have the best record in baseball, which is a problem. Chris Paddack will […]
The Atlanta Braves have lost three of their last five games, and their offense has been a roller coaster. They scored seven and ten runs respectively in their last two wins, but scored zero runs twice and one run in the other game. Still, their offense ranks as second in MLB in total runs scored. […]
Despite garnering 14% of the vote in our alternative Player of the Game poll after the Braves were shut out in Boston, Carlos Carrasco has been designated for assignment for the third time this season. If the last two go-arounds are anything to go by, the minor league contract is piping-hot off the printer and […]
The Atlanta Braves right-hander gave up home runs to the first two batters he faced on Tuesday before buckling down.
There was plenty to like on the offensive end at the lower levels, with some top prospects going off for big games in wins. Isaiah Drake broke a nearly two-week long streak of no extra base hits with an impressive home run in a Rome win, a game that was also marked by another great […]
The Atlanta Braves were firing on all cylinders as they collected a series win after Thursday’s 10-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox. Chris Sale was solid, throwing five innings of two-run ball. He issued three walks and struck out eight. Ronald Acuña Jr. showed a major sign of life and launched a grand slam […]
After a rare disappointing series (against the Washington Nationals, no less), the Atlanta Braves had no choice but to lick their wounds and keep it pushing against their traditional (league-mandated) interleague rivals in the form of the Boston Red Sox. Considering that the top of the rotation was going to be in action, there was […]
We, the spoiled denizens of Braves Country, have made our displeasure known about the recent offensive outages. Some of it warranted (dropping a series to the Nats at home). We may have said things we regret. I’m taking your Ronald Acuña Jr. apology forms riiight here. The Braves will finish 4-2 against the Red Sox […]
The Red Sox just absolutely refuse to learn their lesson… If you’re wondering exactly which lesson we’re talking about, go ahead and read that headline again and take a little trip to our “DUDS” section below: STUDS Payton Tolle and Chris Sale: I’d be hard pressed to say they lived up to the hype, especially […]
