As expected, today’s game […]

Weiss told reporters that Harris is feeling better and continuing to receive treatment for the back injury that sidelined him earlier this week. However, Weiss also acknowledged that an injured list stint remains a possibility if Harris does not […]

Remember when the Braves would slavishly alternate handedness in the lineup? Yeah, these days are not those days. This is very much a new lineup, with […]
They've been two of the NL's best — but to unseat the two-time defending champs, good won't be good enough.
Well, the slump is on. While it’s not surprising for any team to slump for a few games, and even less surprising for an injury-laden squad to do so, it’s still been quite a turnaround for a team that held baseball’s best record for quite a while. After going 1-6 in their last seven games, […]
