Latest news and updates about the Braves
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
For the sixth straight Sunday, the Braves were victorious. And even more enjoyable was the Braves got the job done early in the 8-1 win over the Red Sox. Atlanta just continues to roll along, as they are now 14-1-1 in individual series so far this season. Another good developlment is the production of Mike […]
The quick six-game homestand for the Atlanta Braves is now over and like everything they’ve done so far during this season, they passed the test with flying colors. They proved their point against a very good Cubs team in order to build upon a huge series win at Dodger Stadium and then the Braves had […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
There are a number of changes to the Braves’ lineup as they face their first right-handed pitcher of the Red Sox series in Sunday’s finale. Most notably, the Braves are giving their top two shortstop options in Mauricio Dubon and Ha-Seong Kim the day off, starting Jorge Mateo at short and seventh in the lineup. […]
Saturday saw a lot of action in the Atlanta Braves farm system. Michael Martinez homered for the second straight day, as his red hot start to the FCL season continues. The entire Augusta lineup had big days, as did David McCabe, Manuel Campos, and Yamvier Carrero. On the pitching side, we got to see great […]
The first two games of this weekend’s Braves-Red Sox series couldn’t have been much closer, with each team claiming a 3-2 win. After Boston used an eighth-inning homer from Willson Contreras to win Saturday night’s game, the rubber match is set for Sunday at 1:35 p.m. at Truist Park. The Braves, who have lost just […]
The Braves lost Saturday night and will now have a chance at 1:35 PM ET today to take the series win with them from a series that they really should win. Once again, bullpen fatigue bit them, as this sort of six-man rotation arrangement with two hybrid-long-men in Reynaldo Lopez (who is also untrustworthy) and […]
Is there a more fun baseball archetype than the rookie pitching phenom? Mark Fydrich, Fernando Valenzuela, Kerry Wood, Dontrelle Willis, Jose Fernandez — these guys can take over entire summers. Payton Tolle has everything it takes to put together a special rookie season, one that lives in the imagination of Red Sox fans for decades. […]
Remember when we just complained about the third time through the order? We didn’t know how good we had it. Holding on to a slim lead and wanting to give their top bullpen arms a break, the Braves opted not only to run Bryce Elder through the Red Sox order a third time, but also […]
Well, it’s time to see if the Braves can win another series by taking back-to-back games. Bryce Elder, who is hopefully up to being Bryce Eldar again, faces Payton Tolle. I really want to have some kind of riff on Tolle’s name with The Phantom Tollbooth but it gets awkward — Phaynton Tollebooth? Nah. What […]
Chad Tracy hasn’t exactly shaken things up since taking charge of the Red Sox. But, my god, this man does love him some Mickey Gasper. Gasper and his ‘stache will once again bat second tonight, and this time he’ll do so as the catcher instead of the DH. That’s not the craziest call in the […]
Well, I’m not going to say the “Mauricio Dubon leads off against lefties” experiment is over, but whatever the case may be, it’s at least on hiatus for tonight’s game against Payton Tolle and the Red Sox: Austin Riley is back hitting cleanup, and Michael Harris II has dropped to sixth. These all sort make […]
The Bryce Elder saga continues. At least it’s a happier one than in years past… though what about the MLB-best Braves isn’t, at this point? Elder got things started on the right foot this year with an altered pitch mix and augmented slider, with three good outings in his first four tries. His collective line […]
The Atlanta Braves began the series with the Boston Red Sox on a high note after getting a win in walk-off fashion. Mike Yastrzemski was the hero and delivered a walk-off in the 10th to give the Braves the 3-2 edge. Prior to the 10th inning, the Atlanta offense was relatively quiet. The lineup collected […]
The last week feels like rinse and repeat for these Boston Red Sox. From Peyton Tolle, Brayan Bello (post opener), Ranger Suarez, and now tonight with Connelly Early, the starting rotation is doing just what they need to do for this ball club. It’s when they step up to the plate they’re still like ghosts. […]
The Braves started their series against Boston off with Spencer Strider on the mound, looking to build on his strong start against the Dodgers. Spencer worked around a leadoff walk with two contact outs and a nice pickoff for a clean first inning. It didn’t take long for the Braves to give him some help, […]
After the offense sputtered in the series finale against the Phillies, don’t ask me how they stand to try against Spencer Strider and the MLB-best Atlanta Braves. We try in ATL tonight to kick off the weekend series! ⚾️ First Pitch: 7:15pm — Truist Park, Atlanta, GA 📺 TV: NESN 📻 Radio: WEEI
