Michael Harris II moves up to second in the lineup as Braves face Marlins

The Atlanta Braves have released their lineup for tonight’s contest against the Miami Marlins and the lineup is one that looks like another reminder of just how deep this lineup can be on any given day when injuries aren’t completely ravaging the squad. Anyways, here’s the lineup for the Braves: Michael Harris II has moved […]

Braves reinstate Eli White, DFA Jose Azocar

Most news these days (and, let’s be honest, the past few seasons) feels like it’s been more of the, “You’ll never guess which Brave is going on the Injured List this time!” variety, but this afternoon, I get to make a post with the opposite. Yes, Eli White is back after a brief stay on […]

Braves Minor League Recap: Aiven Cabral Wins Sixth Straight

When guessing who we thought the most consistent pitcher for any affiliate would be this season, few, if anyone, would have guess 18th round pick Aiven Cabral would anchor the Augusta pitching staff. Even as a reliever he has been the player they can rely on for consistent innings, and so far he has recorded […]

Will the Braves regret parting ways with Jonah Heim?

I’ve created a bit of a dilemma for myself. (Not Jonah Heim related.) I’m at least reasonably committed to doing the Big Board… but all the questions that I’ve come up with, and that people submitted responses and confidence ratings to, are all scored at the end of the year — except the Braves’ manager […]

Braves’ late breakthrough fuels 8-4 win against Miami

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but eight runs are better than zero. The Braves are back in the win column, winning their 33rd game of the season in Ronald Acuña Jr.’s return to the lineup. The Braves took advantage of command issues from Marlins starter Braxton Garrett, who loaded the bases with no outs to start […]

Braves vs. Marlins chat and discussion: Martín Pérez vs. Braxton Garrett

Good afternoon, folks. Wondering why it’s a 4:10 pm ET game? Me, too. The best explanation I’ve got for you is this tweet from Marlins beat writer Craig Mish: Lucky us, on the other end of this grand experiment. Regardless, here’s hoping the Baldwin-less Braves can even up this four-game set today after last night’s […]

Byron Buxton, future Brave? Braves fans sound off

ICYMI: Buster Olney spoke with the folks at 680 The Fan’s Cellini & Dimino on a variety of Braves-related topics yesterday, but none were more buzzy than the following: should the Braves trade for Byron Buxton? It’s been discussed a lot over the years. A two-time All-Star and Georgia native who’d be a great cultural […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. returns to lineup as DH in Game 2 vs. Marlins

I don’t know about y’all, but the vibes are… not quite dire, but close to it. It’s just year after year of an IL spot barely getting cold after an activation before someone expeditiously takes its place. The baseball gods have seemingly decreed that the Braves will never be allowed to be 100% healthy. Don’t […]

Martín Pérez on the mound versus Miami

The brightest side of a 4:10 pm ET start? Not wallowing in the absolute stinker that was last night’s game for a full day. The Braves will be looking to play a Normal game of baseball to deny the Fish a guaranteed series split. Here’s hoping the gloves and bats that didn’t make an appearance […]

Braves Farm System is currently missing something

Back on October 9th of last year, an announcement came from the Atlanta Braves that may not have raised a ton of eyebrows at the time. However the effects of that move are being felt right now in a very noticeable way in the team’s farm system. That move in question is the Braves parting […]

Was that the least competitive game the Braves will lose this year?

It’s funny that it happened yesterday for two reasons, at least to me. First, in the recap thread for Sunday’s game, there was a brief exchange about non-competitive games. Using a couple of different methodologies, True2Atlanta and I noted that there have only been four-ish games where the Braves weren’t competitive. I did a method […]

Braves forget there is a baseball game, lose 12-0

The Braves started a four game series in Miami with JR Ritchie on the mound, facing Max Meyer for Miami. The first three half-innings were fairly quiet, as both pitchers worked around a baserunner here or there, with a not-so-brief interlude, as the home plate ump was hit in the mask with a foul ball […]

Ronald Acuña Jr. activated, Kyle Farmer placed on Injured List

The NL East leading Atlanta Braves, who have the highest winning percentage, Division lead, and Swag LevelTM in the league, have made a transaction before tonight’s game with the Miami Marlins. The Braves have reinstated Ronald Acuña from the 10-day Injured List. Ronald has been recovering from a Grade 1 hamstring strain since May 3rd. […]

Braves turn to JR Ritchie for game 1 in Miami

The Braves had a solid 4-2 homestand, winning both series and will now take a quick 4 game road trip to Miami before returning home. This would be a nice time to get greedy and take 3 or 4 from this series against the offensively challenged Marlins. For game 1 today, they will send JR […]

The Week Ahead for Atlanta: Back to the divisional grind for the Braves

It’s back to facing off against the usual suspects for the Atlanta Braves, as their 2026 train now rolls into familiar territory for the next week of baseball action. This includes four games with the Marlins in Miami and three games at home against the Nationals. This is certainly a golden chance for the Braves […]

Braves Minor League Recap: Guanipa, Southisene Star Again

Sunday saw the teams in the Atlanta Braves farm system split the results of four games. More importantly we got to see Luis Guanipa and Tate Southisene help carry the Augusta offense, the best start of the season for Cade Kuehler, and Dixon Williams record another extra base hit. Durham Bulls 7, Gwinnett Stripers 6 […]

Which amusing reunions will the Braves have this year?

A quick one because I got rear-ended yesterday and am currently dealing with insurance-and-other-bureaucracy hell. Yay me. I saw earlier that John Brebbia was sent packing over the weekend. He’s not exactly an iconic Brave, but nonetheless, this franchise does circle back to old friends fairly often. Travis d’Arnaud would potentially be an option given […]

Braves jump all over Red Sox, Brayan Bello to win another series

After a close win Friday and a narrow loss Saturday, the Atlanta Braves left no doubt in their Sunday series finale against the Boston Red Sox at Truist Park. The Braves leapt out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning and a 5-0 advantage through two, coasting to an 8-1 win to remain unbeaten […]

Braves vs. Red Sox chat and discussion: Grant Holmes vs. Brayan Bello

After eking out a win Friday night and blowing a late lead Saturday night, the series is on the line when the Braves and Red Sox face off Sunday afternoon at 1:35 p.m. EDT. Grant Holmes gets a regular-rest turnaround on the Braves’ starter carousel against Brayan Bello, who has been bad as a starter […]

Braves vs. Red Sox rain delay chat and discussion

In the middle of the sixth inning of a game where the Atlanta Braves were firmly in control of things against the Boston Red Sox, the skies suddenly opened up. First, they were able to play through a bit of hail but once they went out there for the bottom of the sixth inning, the […]

Game 46: Red Sox @ Braves

It’s another Sunday series finale, this time in Atlanta against the Braves. Brayan Bello starts for the Red Sox without an opener, a strategy that has seemingly helped get him back on track. Personally, I don’t think the opener is what got him through those outings, and it was more due to a change of […]
