Braves News: Game 1 Vs Phillies, All-MLB team nominations, more
Playoff baseball is finally here. Chris Sale will man the mound for the Braves while Jesus Luzardo will start for the Phillies. Sale is ready for the moment, but many in Braves country know it is going to be just as important that the offense is ready to go as well. It does seem that […]

Braves stay loose and focused on Workout Day ahead of Wild Card Series against Phillies
It was the day before Postseason and all through the house, there were bats cracking all around as the Atlanta Braves officially got their pre-Wild Card Series workout underway for what they hope is a long, deep run into the Postseason. There was plenty of activity from the Braves from outside of the actual workout. […]
Braves have nine players nominated for 2026 All-MLB Teams
With the regular season coming to a close, we’re already getting our first glimpse of what awaits on the horizon of awards season. The All-MLB Team is starting to gain some footing and now, the nominees for the 2026 All-MLB Team have been announced. As such, the Braves are going to have plenty of opportunities […]
Braves biweekly: a cromulent clincher
Past summaries: In September’s latter half, the Braves did a big thing: they clinched their first NL East title in three seasons (but seventh in nine seasons under the current Front Office). They did so with a sweep of the Astros in Houston, while dropping every other series they played. Of course, that sounds more […]
2026 Wild Card Series Preview: Braves tangle with Phillies yet again
Well, it looks like we’re doing this again. For the third time in five seasons, the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies will be facing off in the Postseason. You don’t need me to tell you how the past two series went but if you’re dwelling on that, I’d advise you not to. Both managers have […]
Could DaShawn Keirsey Jr.’s speed benefit Braves in the Postseason?
As the Atlanta Braves make preparations for postseason baseball, constructing the optimal roster will be an important task in the days ahead. While the pitching staff is likely to garner the most attention, filling out the position players with useful reserves will give manager Walt Weiss more buttons to push in late and close situations. […]
Battery Power Braves End of Season Top 30 Prospects
We find ourselves at the end of the season so what better way to celebrate one of the best seasons in recent prospect history than to do our final re-ranking of the Top 30 for the year. While the biggest story was the progression of several positional prospects the Braves also added a significant amount […]
Are the Phillies your preferred Wild Card round matchup?
The Phillies and the Braves appear to be postseason-linked in the same way that Martin Perez and I are — perhaps not inextricably, but… annoyingly? Yeah, that’s the right adverb. On the plus side for the Braves, the Phillies are neither particularly good, nor did they really get a chance to set things up for […]
Braves News: Braves Welcome Phillies For Wild Card Round, Early Afternoon Schedule for Games, More
The 2026 season is over and the next step for the Braves could not be more familiar and perhaps appropriate. The Braves will host their division rival, the Phillies, for a best of three Wild Card round setup at Truist Park this week. Both Tuesday and Wednesday games will occur at just after 2PM Eastern, […]
Braves at Marlins series recap: It’s onto October for Atlanta
The regular season is over and it ended in quiet fashion for the Atlanta Braves. All of their big fireworks and celebrations took place last Sunday when they picked up a sweep in Houston in order to clinch the NL East title. It’s been a week since then and the Braves have essentially been in […]
Mauricio Dubón homers as Braves drop regular season finale in Miami
And with that, the 2026 regular season comes to a close. The Atlanta Braves finish 94-68 as NL East champions and are looking for more. Postseason baseball begins Tuesday as the Braves will take on the Philadelphia Phillies in the Wild Card round. In this final tune-up, Atlanta regulars Ronald Acuña Jr., Drake Baldwin, and […]
MLB announces 2026 Wild Card Series schedule for Braves vs. Phillies
The race for the final Wild Card spot in the National League went to the final day of the season and the Philadelphia Phillies finally got it across the finish line in order to clinch the six-seed in the NL’s half of the Postseason bracket. As such, the Braves now know that they’ll be taking […]

This is a Braves-Marlins game thread, but also one for… Because we know y’all are haters scoreboard watchers. So have at it! Game Notes Pitching preview Lineups Wild Card schedule revealed
Rest for regulars in Braves-Marlins series finale
Here we are, Braves Country. One last contest before some (afternoon, ugh) Postseason baseball at Truist Park starting Tuesday. This is a lineup we’ve been expecting all week – one that allows the Braves to rest some of their stars. Drake Baldwin, Ronald Acuña Jr., and Michael Harris II all get watch this one from […]
JR Ritchie and the Braves close out the regular season in Miami
We’ve done it, folks – Game 162 is here. To call it a weird year is an understatement. So what does that make us if we’ve followed along so faithfully? Unlike some other teams fighting for their lives down to the wire, the Braves have been getting some fresh air and exercise in relatively stress-free […]
Braves News: Phillies flounder, fish fry, more
Well Atlanta is positioned pretty well for the playoffs, with their seeding locked up for a while now and the ability to line up their pitching that comes with that. They managed Saturday’s game well, despite the injury to Martin Perez, with Brent Suter covering the first 3.0 innings and no blowups to disrupt plans […]
Owen Murphy named as 2026 Triple-A All-Star
The Minor League All-Stars have finally been unveiled for all of the affiliated levels, with the announcement of the Triple-A All-Stars capping off what’s been a bit of an extended rollout for these minor-league standouts. The Braves had a handful of All-Stars in Low-A and High-A, they had just one representative in Double-A and they […]
Braves roll Miami behind an offensive explosion and solid pitching
In a meaningless end-of-season matchup, Brent Suter served as the opener for Atlanta, as the Marlins threw their own opener in Jack Ralston. It ended up being about an ideal game for Atlanta. Everyone stayed healthy, the offense got in a decent rhythm, there weren’t any pitching blowups, and it was an enjoyable, comfortable win. […]

Michael Harris leads off, Dominic Smith at DH
Walt Weiss is putting Michael Harris back at the leadoff spot, hoping he can get the centerfielder going after a difficult September, as we approach the playoffs. Austin Riley was bumped back up to the fifth spot, as he has perhaps been better in the second half, but has had a monthly best wRC+ of […]
Braves look for a relaxed fish fry with eyes towards the playoffs
The Braves don’t have any stakes here in the last two games, so while it would certainly be nice to grab another win, the real goal is to stay healthy, in rhythm, and not overworked. Brent Suter will start today’s game and will hope to cover some innings in the absence of Martin Perez. Suter […]
If there were a NL Wild Card MVP, who from the Braves would win it?
Major League Baseball will give MVP awards for the League Championship Series and the World Series. They do not award an MVP for a Wild Card Series or a Division Series. I’m not sure why the earlier rounds don’t have their standout players honored. Let me understand this. After 162 games and 6 plus months […]
Braves offense stifled by Eury Pérez in opener of final regular-season series at Miami
The Braves’ pitching staff largely took care of business despite an untraditional assignment in Friday night’s opening game of the regular-season sendoff series in Miami The offense, which was not tinkered with and likely resembled what could be the team’s postseason lineup, did not seem to get the memo. Atlanta managed just one hit off […]

Those final three will be played at Miami, starting Friday at 7:10 p.m. EDT, before the Braves return to Truist Park to host a best-of-three wild-card series against a TBD team starting next Tuesday.
