Atlanta Braves Announce Drake Baldwin Decision Before Nationals Game
The Atlanta Braves have extended their NL East division lead to eight games after beating the Washington Nationals in the first two games of their four-game series.

Braves look to secure DC series win behind Reynaldo Lopez

Braves: Robert Suarez injury is becoming more worrisome by the day
We are about 48 hours from the trade deadline, and it’s become increasingly evident the Braves should be prioritizing additions to their bullpen, given there still seems to be no progress with Robert Suarez.

Braves Biweekly: With some luck, back on the horse
Past summaries: How did the Braves do recently? The post All-Star Break portion of July was a fun one for the Braves. You probably recall that June was terrible for this team, and the start of July was… okay, because the team played .500 ball instead of continuing to plunge through a June-esque abyss. Two […]

Again, Braves make a disappointing roster move amid series with Nats
The Braves took Game 2 of their series with the Nationals behind a beautiful performance from the pitching staff. Bryce Elder turned in a gem, tossing six innings of one-run ball, and Elieser Hernández picked up the save, going the final three innings and allowing just one run with four strikeouts. Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough […]
Braves designate Elieser Hernández for assignment and recall James Karinchak
The Atlanta Braves have once again activated the DFA Cycle and the latest passenger is none other than Elieser Hernández.

Braves Designate Elieser Hernandez For Assignment
The Braves announced Saturday that right-hander Elieser Hernandez has been designated for assignment. Right-handed reliever James Karinchak has been recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett in his place. Hernandez, 31, seems to have stepped into the Carlos Carrasco/Jesse Chavez role in Atlanta. The Braves near-habitually stash a veteran righty who can’t be optioned in Gwinnett and cycle […]
Falcons: Kevin Stefanski provides injury update on Jawaan Taylor
One of the more surprising developments of the offseason was Falcons starting right tackle Kaleb McGary abruptly retiring after suffering a leg injury in 2025 that forced him to miss the entire season. Because of that, the Falcons pivoted to veteran Jawaan Taylor, who inked a one-year, $5 million contract to protect the blind side […]
Falcons training camp Day 4 news, standouts, interviews, injuries
The Falcons welcomed all fans for the first time on Saturday for the fourth consecutive day of training camp. It was a mercifully cool, cloud-covered morning, and fans turned out starting early.

Braves have a big decision looming at shortstop
Ha-Seong Kim has been in Gwinnett on a rehab assignment, where he’s shown some signs of life with the stick. The surface-level numbers aren’t all that great — he’s hitting just a hair over .200 with a .614 OPS — but he is hitting the ball hard with consistency, something he rarely showed over 27 […]
The Atlanta Braves are teaching the Washington Nationals a cruel lesson
Over these last two games, we have seen the difference between an experienced World Series contender and a young team that is promising, but green. The Atlanta Braves have shown the Nats that there are levels to this game. It is not that they are blowing the Nats out of the water either. The Braves […]
1 last-minute trade Braves must make before deadline
The Atlanta Braves have earned the right to plan specifically for October. At 65–45, they lead the National League East by eight games.

Braves injury updates on Hurston Waldrep and Spencer Schwellenbach
Back-to-back wins over the Nationals have the Braves up eight games in the NL East, looking like a near lock to return to the postseason following a one-year hiatus.

Braves Minor League Recap: Cam Caminiti puts in dominant performance
(54-50) Gwinnett Stripers 3, (48-56) Durham Bulls 4 Box Score The Stripers bats were held in check most of the night, in their narrow defeat to the Durham Bulls. Owen Murphy got the start for the Stripers and put together a solid, but not spectacular start. He danced around a lot of work on the […]
Bryce Elder, Game 2 starter?
Am I getting ahead of myself talking about the playoffs on August 1st? Maybe. The Braves likely need to win 90 games to enter the postseason tournament. So they need another 25 wins across the next 52 games to get there. Atlanta has plenty of time to mess this up, but the good people over […]
