Latest news and updates about the Braves
In the “he can’t keep getting away with this” starter battle, it was Bryce Elder who came out on top as the winning pitcher. With some drama, I must say upfront. But even though Dodgers starter Justin Wrobleski outlasted Elder, you’d take Elder’s final line every day. This was a fascinating pitching duel: both Elder […]
The Dodgers (24-16) dropped their second straight game with a score of 7-2 to the Braves (28-13) on Sunday afternoon at Dodger Stadium. Justin Wrobleski was one out away from a complete game, but the offense didn’t come through. They collected only seven runs in the series loss to the MLB-best Braves. Andy Pages picked […]
The Braves are currently putting it all on the line in an attempt to pull off a rare series win in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. One of the biggest examples of that has been Eli White’s performance in this game. In an extremely high-leverage situation where the Dodgers had Max Muncy at the plate […]

The Braves will be trying to win on Mother’s Day for the first time since 2022. Walt Weiss has penciled in a very similar lineup to the one that drove in seven runs in last night’s equalizer. The one change is Eli White (still in right field, batting seventh) flipping spots with Sean Murphy (catching, […]
Bobby Cox passed away yesterday, just a few days short of his 85th birthday. Cox became our third manager after Roy Hartsfield and Bobby Mattick. After five losing seasons, fans were frustrated and eager for change. Cox was the first manager who appeared focused on winning. Cox had managed the Atlanta Braves for the previous […]
The Braves are trying to win it today, not just for the series. They gotta do it #ForTheMoms. I’d had a vague feeling that the Braves didn’t have a great track record on Mother’s Day, not based on any specific memories. However, my recency bias was not completely unfounded: it turns out Atlanta have lost […]
Saturday was a day filled with not just home runs, but prospect home runs. In total four games got played, with the Columbus doubleheader being rained out, and nine homers were hit by members of the Atlanta Braves farm system – including a pair of two-homer games by Logan Braunschweig and Colby Jones. We also […]
This week, we lost two key figures on Atlanta Braves history. Ted Turner accumulated discounted media, bought the Atlanta Braves, and built and rode the cable television wave to a fortune and brought the America’s Team to millions across the country. Bobby Cox served forty plus years in baseball and helped build, nurture, and inspire […]
It ended up being a tough week for the Colorado Rockies. They kicked things off on Sunday by giving up 11 runs to the Atlanta Braves to complete a sweep, and it didn’t get much better when the New York Mets came to town. The Rockies lost to the Mets on Monday before the snow—yes, […]
MLB.com | Mark Bowman: Just days after long-time Yankees radio broadcaster John Sterling passed away at the age of 87, the baseball world lost another legend with the passing of Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox. Cox was the long-time manager of the Braves across two separate stints, leading the franchise to 14 straight division […]
Behind a stellar performance from Spencer Strider and an opportunistic offensive attack early, the Braves shook off their Dodger Stadium demons for at least one night to even up the series with a 7-2 win. Strider became the story on Saturday night, working six nearly perfect shutout innings. His slider was virtually un-hittable with a […]
The Dodgers got the best of Chris Sale on Friday, but against the flamethrower Spencer Strider and crew, they were nearly left silent as the Braves defeated the Dodgers by a final of 7-2. Blake Snell made his 2026 season debut after missing the first month of the regular season, marking his first appearance since […]
Not everything has gone as planned this week in the Dodgers rotation, with Tyler Glasnow landing on the injured list and Blake Snell cutting short his rehab assignment to start in Los Angeles on Saturday. But in Sunday’s series finale, the Dodgers can turn to one of their steadiest hands going at the moment in […]

Well losing the Chris Sale game was really not what the doctor ordered for the Braves playing at the Dodgers, particularly the way that the game was lost, but they have a chance to even things up tonight behind Spencer Strider. There are a number of notable changes to the Braves’ lineup, as Mauricio Dubon […]
The Braves face the Los Angeles Deathstars in game 2 of their weekend 3-game series and this is the game with the biggest name value in the pitching matchup, as Spencer Strider faces off with Blake Snell. Strider’s first outing of the season last week went pretty poorly in Colorado, but it was also in […]
A tough week for the Atlanta Braves in terms of franchise history and luminaries just got even tougher, as the franchise will now have to mourn the loss of yet another massive figure in the organization. Just days after the passing of legendary owner Ted Turner, former Braves manager and Baseball Hall of Famer Bobby […]
Triple-A: Gwinnett Stripers (Braves) 9, Norfolk Tides 1 — Game 1 (7 inn.) You wouldn’t know it by the final score, but this was a one-run game until the last inning, the seventh, when the Stripers erupted for seven runs to turn it into a blowout. Reliever Gerald Ogando got torched for five runs in […]
The Atlanta Braves received some unfortunate news when outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was placed on the injured list with a left hamstring strain earlier this week. However, he is eligible to return on Wednesday, and Mark Bowman of MLB.com reported that a timely return is plausible. Acuña was seen doing some agility exercises ahead of […]
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers clawed and scrapped their way to some offense against Chris Sale to get the better of the Atlanta Braves 3-1 in Friday night’s series opener between perennial National League powerhouses at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers had only five hits in seven innings against Sale, but made them count. Teoscar Hernández […]
Dodger Stadium has been a house of horrors for the Braves over the years, and it continued to be so on Friday night as they lost yet again, 3-1. Atlanta had chances to score in seemingly every inning and just couldn’t get the big hit to swing the game. They ended the night 1-for-10 with […]
Back when Ronald Acuña Jr. was initially diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, there was a feeling that Acuña’s stint on the IL might be a quick one — one where the starting right fielder for the Braves would simply just take some rest before ramping back up for a return within a 10-day […]
