For a team with talent like the Braves have, Spring Training should be about only two things. One, staying healthy and two, letting the prospects shine for the entire organization. The numbers that the starters put up should be thrown away. Also, the 14-5 record should be ignored as well. But some of the starters […]
Well the pitching has been an injury mess this spring, but it must be said that in general, pretty much everyone who has stayed healthy on the pitching and hitting side have performed at or above expectation so far. If this team’s offense can really get going again and the bullpen is elite as it […]
Today was a lot better for Bryce Elder as far as results during spring training are concerned. Elder had a successful ramp-up during against the Red Sox and bounced back from a rough outing during his last appearance as the Braves continued to get ready for regular season action. For all the grief that we […]
Despite strong box score games from Ryan Rollins and Kevin Porter Jr., the Bucks continued their losing ways against the soaring Atlanta Hawks—who now own a league-best nine-game win streak. In what has become a hallmark of the Bucks’ season, turnovers were again the bane of the Milwaukee’s game, while Wisconsin native Jalen Johnson led […]
On a Saturday afternoon Kids Game, the Hawks met the Bucks looking for their longest win streak since they won 19 straight way back in 2014-15. The Hawks were without Jonathan Kuminga, whereas the Bucks were missing Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ousmane Dieng. Atlanta once again established early control of the contest, with solid defensive possessions […]
Without Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks stood little chance against the league’s hottest team, the Atlanta Hawks, handing them their ninth straight victory in a matinee blowout at State Farm Arena. Oft-Buck killer (this season, at least) CJ McCollum had a game-high 30 points for the home team, Wisconsin native Jalen Johnson had a 23-point […]
It’s time for more Bryce Elder, folks! I know you’re amped up to see it and I’m certainly amped up to talk about it. Yep, I totally mean that with all sincerity. In all seriousness though, let’s hope that we see Elder show some improvement after his last outing was a bit of a mess. […]

Aside from it being the Josh Minott career game, the Nets’ matchup with the Atlanta Hawks was a pretty forgettable bout. With the absence of Michael Porter Jr., Ziaire Williams, and Nolan Traore, Brooklyn was pretty much doomed from the start, especially with Atlanta on a surge to take the eighth seed of the Eastern […]
Didier Fuentes announced his presence with authority yesterday. It’s only Spring Training, but a 5/0 K/BB ratio will get you noticed. Watch this 98.7 MPH fastball yesterday. Now pair that with this sweeper. Didier definitely showed off the goods yesterday against the Yankees road lineup. It’s definitely enough to get him involved in the Braves’ […]
The Milwaukee Bucks front up today against the Atlanta Hawks in what will likely be their final chance to beat a side right above them in the standings (and thus gain a full game on that opponent). Analysts like Zach Lowe have wondered whether Giannis will get shut down soon if they don’t stack wins […]
The Atlanta Braves continued to trim down the roster on Friday, with John Gil and Tayler Scott being the next victims. After these two were reassigned to minor league camp, the Atlanta roster stands at 47. Infielder Gil appeared in 17 games this spring, where he hit .158. He spent most of his time at […]
The Indianapolis Colts announced on Friday that the team has re-signed veteran wideout Laquon Treadwell for the 2026 regular season: Initially a first round pick of the Minnesota Vikings back in 2016, the 30-year-old veteran wideout has been well traveled in his NFL career, having also spent time with the Atlanta Falcons, Jacksonville Jaguars, New […]
Happy Friday, all! The Yankees played earlier today in spring training against the Braves, but a few other Yankees are actually playing tonight. And since the World Baseball Classic is now in the knockout stage, how about we have a game thread for tonight’s two contests? First up is the Dominican Republic, who looked an […]
A rough first inning cost Yankees left-hander Ryan Weathers dearly, as he surrendered four runs in that opening frame in the Bombers’ 7-6 loss at the hands of the Atlanta Braves on Friday afternoon at CoolToday Park in North Port. Things did get interesting in the ninth, though. Atlanta got to the last inning up […]
The Atlanta Braves took on the New York Yankees faced off in Northport for a spring training in which Didier Fuentes took the mound in hopes of proving he is ready for a rotation spot. The game started off with a bang for the Braves. Didier Fuentes looked like seasoned veteran with a 1-2-3 inning […]
There may be more signings to come, but the Falcons have made a fair amount of noise in free agency thus far. It hasn’t been loud noise, mind you, outside of the buzz that comes with signing a quarterback like Tua Tagovailoa and getting back a couple of old fan favorites in Austin Hooper and […]
Not that it really matters, but the New York Yankees are tied for the Grapefruit League lead with a 13-6 record after beating the Detroit Tigers on Thursday. On Friday, they will visit the Atlanta Braves in North Port, with left-hander Ryan Weathers looking to bounce back after putting up a stinker the last time […]
Spring Training is now in full swing and the Atlanta Braves have already made several moves to shape up what their opening day lineup is going to be. One area that is not certain is who will shape up the back end of the rotation to start the year. Didier Fuentes is one of the […]
Jeez, how did I get the relief pitching assignment? You know about me and relievers, right? The thing with this series is that we’ve theoretically gone through “who the Braves have at their disposal this year” and “how those guys are gonna do.” For relievers, though? That’s the place where the mid-March answers to those […]
Okay, now we’re into the competitive races. After finalizing our specialists with Matt Bryant, Matt Bosher, and Allen Rossum (Eric Weems will help handle kicks, too!), we’re moving on to defense. That begins with safety, where we have five contenders for two spots as our starters, and a pretty great crew besides. You’ll see one […]
The Atlanta Braves continued spring play on Thursday, losing 5-2 to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Despite the score, it was a fantastic day for Grant Holmes, who got the start and turned in a lights-out performance. Holmes threw five hitless innings, striking out nine and walking just one Pirate. This run continues a productive spring training […]
According to ESPN’s Schefter, Indianapolis Colts veteran free agent Samson Ebukam is signing with the Atlanta Falcons, per his representation: The 30-year-old veteran defensive end is fresh off a 2025 campaign in which he had 33 tackles (22 solo), 5 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, 23 QB pressures, and a fumble recovery during 14 games […]
New Ravens offensive line coach Dwayne Ledford is bringing one of his former players from Atlanta to Baltimore. Jovaughn Gwyn is set to join the Ravens on a one-year deal, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Gwyn, 26, was a seventh-round pick out of South Carolina in 2023. He only appeared in two games in his […]
The Nets won two straight and then lost by 38 to the Pistons in a revenge game. It all checks out during this long, strange season. Egor Demin, Michael Porter Jr, Nolan Traore, and Day’ron Sharpe are all out. This comes after the news that Sharpe would be out for the remainder of the season. […]
