Braves Minor League Recap: System flexes power

(24-15) Gwinnett Stripers 1, (15-24) Norfolk Tides 4 Box Score It was a rude return to the Stripers for starting pitcher Carlos Carassco who was greeted with a three run home run in the first inning, along with an RBI single in the second for a grand total of four runs – which is more […]

Falcons sign OL Layden Robinson

Those players who get rookie minicamp invites know it’s a long shot opportunity to actually make a team’s roster. Every now and then, one of them impresses enough to get that spot, and Layden Robinson was one of those fortunate few. The former fourth round pick of the Patriots muddled through a tough rookie season […]

Which Elder God is Bryce Elder?

Admittedly, this post would’ve made, arguably, more sense had Bryce Elder continued to wreak havoc on the Dodgers in, and past, the sixth inning of yesterday’s game. But, he didn’t. And, if you think about it, isn’t the unknowable mystery of why he can go from Full Bamboozle to Has to be Removed from the […]

Second straight 7-2 victory secures Braves series win vs. Dodgers

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 […]

Dodgers drop series to Braves, lose 7-2 again

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.

NBA Trade Rumors: Celtics & Hawks Talk Jaylen Brown Trade

 The Boston Celtics were the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference this season. But after their shocking first-round exit in the playoffs, they'll be heading back to the drawing board this offseason. We had a look last week at three players who won't be back in Beantown next season, but could we soon be adding Jaylen Brown to that list?? The latest rumor surrounding the five-time All-Star has the Atlanta Hawks linked to the Celtics in trade talks to try to acquire him. The Hawks had some c...

Bucks receive no. 10 overall pick in 2026 NBA Draft

The drama of the NBA Draft Lottery came and went Sunday afternoon, and the most likely landing spot for the Bucks is what they get: they will select 10th in next month’s NBA Draft. As I’ve written about extensively, including this morning, the first-round pick swap they traded to New Orleans—which became property of Atlanta […]

Bobby Cox

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 […]

Braves Minor League Recap: Homers everywhere on Saturday

Saturday was a day filled with not just home runs, but prospect home runs.

We also […]

Who is Braves Baseball to you?

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 […]

This Week in Purple: Word to Your Mother

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, […]

Spencer Strider superb as Braves take down Dodgers, 7-2

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 […]
