The Portland Trail Blazers struggled this week at the beginning of a long road trip. After a loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves at home, Portland headed East and fell to the Charlotte Hornets and Atlanta Hawks. They also beat the Chicago Bulls during the week so it wasn’t a total loss. As tends to happen […]
The Portland Trail Blazers are going through a dip in their season, one of a half-dozen that have plagued them alongside several high spots.

It’s a road spring training game, folks, so that means the Atlanta Braves are going to be letting their organizational depth shine in this one. With that being said, there’s still plenty of reason to tap in. Bryce Elder is right in the thick of the race for the final spot in the rotation and […]
The Braves, as they are required, released their 2025 financial results on this past Wednesday. Revenue was up 18% despite the nightmare 2025 season on the field, powered by countless injuries, Alex Verdugo, and Scott Blewett. The Braves have cobbled together commercial real estate, concerts and shows, Banana Ball, parking and oh yes, a Major […]
While much of the attention through the first few weeks of Spring Training has been on the Braves pitching staff, the Braves offense has been the source of much success so far. Power has been on full display from just about everyone, from newcomers such as Mike Yastrzemski to emerging prospects like John Gil. Of […]
Matt Bosher won our punter competition with the greatest of ease, snaring nearly 74% of the vote. Now it’s time to vote on the best Falcons kicker of the past 25 years. Some of you may ask where Morten Andersen is here. Unfortunately for Andersen, he only kicked three seasons in Atlanta this century, in […]
The Portland Trail Blazers got pulverized by the Atlanta Hawks in NBA action tonight, falling 135-101 in a game that was never seriously contested.

We were treated to a split-squad day on Sunday, with Reynaldo Lopez starting at home against the Rays, backed by most of the regular bats remaining in camp after a few WBC departures and Grant Holmes starting on the road at the Twins’ facility, backed by mostly quad-A players and a few prospects. At home, […]
Who will the Atlanta Falcons bring in to replace/compete with/back up Michael Penix Jr.? It’s one of the central questions of the offseason, and while we’re likely only weeks away from finding out, a little healthy anxiety about the option is normal. Only the Falcons know who they’re after, but there are those around the […]

The two squads are both jostling for play-in positioning with the Hawks sitting 10th in the Eastern Conference and the Blazers are 9th out west. Portland is coming off of a win over […]

This morning, Atlanta Braves formally announce that infielder Nacho Alvarez, Jr. and reliever Hunter Stratton have been optioned to Triple-A and that non-roster invitees catcher Chadwick Tromp and reliever Javy Guerra have been reassigned to the minor league camp. Alvarez, Jr.’s option appeared on the team’s transaction page yesterday. For Alvarez, Jr., Tromp and Guerra, […]
The Braves have 65 players in camp right now. Yesterday Nacho Alvarez has already left for the World Baseball Classic. So that’s effectively your first cut. The Braves have a pair of split-squad games today and an off day Tuesday. So they will play a ton of players today, and typically off days are when […]
Spencer Strider looked pretty good on Saturday, even if he didn’t necessarily look like the Spencer Strider that we have been used to. His pitches looked good in terms of shape and he threw them for strikes. His velocity was sitting lower-90s though, so it will be worth monitoring whether that is a new normal […]
Spencer Strider’s spring training debut in 2026 was certainly an intriguing one, as Strider was clearly looking to accomplish his own set of goals in this one that may not have aligned with what the public speculation may be concerning his own profile as a pitcher at the moment. As I mentioned in the game […]
It’s beginning to feel more like spring, kind of. Temperatures in Baltimore will reach nearly 60 degrees today. It’s positively balmy around here. The Orioles, of course, have been enjoying pleasant weather for a couple of weeks now, and they’re back in action in Sarasota today. Kyle Bradish will make his second start after a […]
Two dominant Falcons storylines this offseason have not been fun. Between James Pearce Jr. and the news that broke Friday about allegations against the team’s newly hired, and now newly fired assistant defensive line coach, I think it would be nice to have something a little lighter to discuss this weekend. And that makes it […]
The Atlanta Braves’ bats were hot during Friday’s 15-8 win over the Boston Red Sox. It was an exciting third inning, as the Braves plated 11 runs and Ronald Acuña Jr. launched a grand slam. Mike Yastrzemski and Matt Olson also joined in on the fun and went yard. Altogether, the Braves racked up 13 […]
