That was always the likeliest course of action given the $20 million Atlanta paid Kim in the offseason, but it doesn’t appear he’ll be the everyday starter. That title still belongs to rookie […]
Your new and improved* Braves are here. Fifty games left in the 2026 regular season. Let’s get after it. *your mileage may vary based on your trade deadline opinions. August started off in sweet and sweep-y fashion – the Washington Nationals entered the series a game over .500 and left two games under. The Braves […]
According to the Gwinnett Stripers transaction log, the Braves have released five-time All-Star Andrew McCutchen.

Over the next several days — and possibly much longer — there will be very few positive comments about what the Braves accomplished at the trade deadline, whether from fans or outside voices. It was an unmitigated disaster, a complete and total failure from the entire front office. For a brief moment, though, I’ll break […]
All the attention surrounding the Braves’ horrendous trade deadline will center on their failure to add a playoff-caliber starting pitcher, and rightfully so. It’s been the club’s single biggest weakness for years now. But Atlanta’s refusal to add any significant piece to the pitching staff at all is just as appalling. There’s more than one […]

A disastrous and lethargic trade deadline has come and gone for the Atlanta Braves. It’s time for everyone’s favorite: trade grades. A note on trade grades: there’s no perfect formula here.
