In the top of the first inning, Drake Baldwin homered again to give the Braves an early 1-0 lead over the Angels. Baldwin’s incredible sophomore campaign has been something to behold. And that’s where the fun ended on Monday night. Jose Soriano absolutely cooked the Braves for eight innings, allowing just the one run on […]

The Atlanta Braves face off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in what looks to be a pitchers duel between the two staff aces. Chris Sale has only given up one run in his two starts, and José Soriano has yet to surrender an earned run this season in twelve innings. The Braves’ offense […]

The Atlanta Braves had a roller coaster ride of offense in Arizona, scoring seventeen runs in one game, but in the other two it was basically what seemed to be just Drake Baldwin carrying them. The offense is going to try and kick it back into gear against the Angels in another late game but […]

Chris Sale will be taking the mound facing off against José Soriano, who has firmly cemented himself as the best pitcher in the Angels’ rotation. Soriano has started the season of in incredible […]

Well, the good news is that the Atlanta Braves still have yet to lose a series here in 2026. By this time last year they were doing nearly nothing but losing, so I will happily take a 6-4 start over that shambolic 2-8 start that they had over the course of their first 10 games […]

I remember I did this, about a year ago, with regard to Hector Neris. Hector Neris did not make it much further. Will Joel Payamps? I don’t know if there’s an affiliation of Joel Payamps Doomers, but if there is, I guess I’m in the club. Or the inaugural member. A veteran of seven MLB […]

Through 10 games, the Braves are 6-4. While it is true anyone would take that start to the season, it also is a bit disappointing after the Braves had to settle for a series split vs the Dbacks. After a 6-5 loss in extra innings in another game where the Braves struggled with runners in […]

Say it with me, now: “You always take a four-game series split on the road.” With that being said, it sure seemed like this could’ve been more than just a split for the Atlanta Braves as they made their annual trip out to the desert. It especially feels like a bit of a bummer when […]
Welp, going into extra innings to keep the game alive, the Arizona Diamondbacks capitalized on an opportunity to prevent the third consecutive series win for the Atlanta Braves (6-5) and end the series on a split. Besides Drake Baldwin’s solo homer in the first inning to give the Braves their early lead and racking up […]
Pitching has shown itself to be strong throughout this series, and the offense started with electric production to begin their first road trip…can the Atlanta Braves end on the same note? Three consecutive series wins are a pretty sweet way to start the series; if not, the Arizona Diamondbacks can hit the road with a […]
Happy Easter to all who celebrate! We are back with Sunday baseball on the West Coast, as the Braves take on the Diamondbacks for the series finale, hoping to secure the win. The roster has been released for both teams. Martín Pérez is taking the hill for his first career start with the Braves, with […]
Though the Atlanta Braves came up a few runs short for the third win against the Arizona Diamondbacks yesterday, at least we’ve seen consistent quality starts from Bryce Elder to propel us to today’s series ending before the Braves head to Anaheim to face the Angels. Let’s look at today’s pitchers. Martín Pérez has gotten […]
The Braves are hitting the ball pretty hard this season, but have had a number of barreled outs and haven’t always seen results from hitting the ball well. It does seem like some of this might be due to the balls being further deadened, as has seemingly been a trend over recent years. Some of […]
Coming into this game, the Braves had exorcised a lot of their 2025 demons with their 6-2 start, but one remained conspicuously absent: the one-run loss. Well, in their ninth game of the season, they finally had a one-run decision, and, in somewhat-reminiscent-of-2025 fashion, it was a loss that probably could have, and at times […]
The Braves try to make it (gasp!) four in a row, and three in a row against the Diamondbacks, as Bryce Elder and Michael Soroka square off in the desert.
Can’t say that you can really blame the Braves for not changing anything… did you know they have a better record than the Dodgers right now? This will their fifth time using this lineup in nine games. The Diamondbacks are making a few changes. Adrian Del Castillo missed the first few games of the season […]
Is there a more beloved former Brave than Michael Soroka? (Maybe Freddie Freeman?) Perhaps because the phrase, “What could have been?” peals more sharply with regard to Soroka than anyone else, the fondness for the Canadian giraffe-necked right-hander from this corner, at least, is at its max. But, on Saturday night, the Braves will face […]
Minor League Baseball is officially in full swing as Columbus and Augusta opened their seasons on Friday and the starting pitching for Atlanta’s farm affiliates absolutely dominated across the board. (4-3) Gwinnett Stripers 8, (1-6) Round Rock Express 1 Box Score Simply put, Didier Fuentes look electric in his first start of the season for […]
If you missed most of Spring Training (which I totally understand), you may have missed appearance in Spring Training. He got a decent look in North Port, sticking around until March 11th. That was enough time to be noticed and to hit home runs on consecutive days. This one was a laser shot, coming off […]
On Friday afternoon, the Atlanta Braves announced that they had acquired right-hander Victor Mederos from the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for international bonus pool money. He was immediately optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett, and to make room on the roster, fellow righty AJ Smith-Shawver was transferred to the 60-day injured list. Mederos only has 12 […]
In a game dominated by the two starting pitchers, it was Ozzie Albies and Matt Olson who stepped to the plate with the score 0-0 in the ninth inning and answered the bell to give the Braves their third consecutive win and improve their record on the young season to 6-2. The Braves have now […]
The Atlanta Braves have started the season with three straight series-opening wins after last night’s 17-2 thumping of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Now they go for their first three-game winning streak of the season in Game 2 of the four-game series Friday night in Phoenix. Atlanta will give the ball to Grant Holmes as he looks […]
After last night’s offensive explosion which saw the Braves score nearly as many runs (17) as they had in their first six games combined (24), a left-handed starter on the mound for Arizona is forcing Atlanta to switch things up in the lineup. With Eduardo Rodriguez (0-0, 0.00 ERA) taking the mound for the Diamondbacks, […]
We have a trade to talk about, folks — it’s not a big one but it’s a trade, nonetheless! In fact, the Braves have gone back to one of their most frequent trade partners (or at least it feels that way, as ComeBackTedTurner mentioned in the linked Feed post) for another deal: The Los Angeles […]
