Latest news and updates about the Braves
It does feel like this could finally be the year we see Alex Anthopoulos swing big at the trade deadline. It hasn’t typically been the Braves’ M.O., but they also haven’t had a farm system this deep in quite a long time. Atlanta has the prospect depth to target whoever they desire, featuring a logjam […]
Two Dodgers games in August were added to the TBS Tuesday night baseball schedule, the network announced this week. The August 4 game against the Chicago Cubs, the middle game of a three-game set at Wrigley Field is a TBS game, as is the Dodgers’ opener against the Atlanta Braves in Atlanta on August 25. […]
At the end of the day on paper, it’s going to go down as a four-game series win at home for the Braves over the Padres. If you look at these two teams and their current records, it’s not something that appears to be shocking. The Braves are now one of only three teams in […]
More good news on the injury front for the Atlanta Braves. Not only do they expect to get back Ronald Acuña Jr. in the coming days, but catcher Sean Murphy will begin his rehab assignment with the Gwinnett Stripers tomorrow. #Braves C Sean Murphy will join Triple-A Gwinnett to begin a rehab assignment tomorrow. I […]
Had it all the way – what a completely normal and resounding series win for your Atlanta Braves. Win number 60 and taking three out of four from the Padres at home… Per the game notes, the Padres have beaten the Braves more than any other team since the beginning of last year (10-3), so […]
The Braves squeaked out another victory on Thursday afternoon, giving them back-to-back series wins for the first time since early June. They’ve now won five of their first seven games to start the second half, moving 4.5 games ahead of the Phillies in the NL East, and they’re about to get a pretty special player […]

The Braves kick off a thin slate of games today at 12:15 pm ET. With a victory in the matinee to finish the homestand, they could: The decision to make or ruin the rest of our Thursday is in the hands of the following gentlemen: No real surprises here, even though the Padres made a […]
The Braves had one of their most disappointing seasons in franchise history a year ago — entering alongside the Dodgers as World Series favorites, only to end up as sellers at the trade deadline. At least, that’s what we thought was going to happen. The Braves were well out of playoff contention and had some […]
The Atlanta Braves host the San Diego Padres in the series-deciding finale. If the Braves win, they will have won three of the four games. A victory this morning secures a series split for the Padres. The four-game set has been highly competitive, as the Braves are coming off a dramatic 7-6 win last night. […]
Even in a seller’s market, a lot of blockbuster trade targets will be discussed leading up to the August 3rd deadline, with several of them finding new homes. Here are the top names to watch that fill areas of need for the Braves, including the odds they’re moved, according to Kiley McDaniel and Jeff Passan […]
Michael King deserved better than what he got. The San Diego Padres starter completed six innings and scattered five hits while allowing just one run to the Atlanta Braves. The Padres did nothing to support him on offense and his night ended with Atlanta holding onto a 1-0 lead. Jackson Merrill helped out in the […]
The tide appears to be shifting in Atlanta after a really rough two-month stretch. The bats are waking up across the lineup, and Ronald Acuña Jr. should be rejoining the Braves this weekend. He looked all the way back on Wednesday night, recording two hits for the Gwinnett Stripers and stealing a base. The offense […]
The trade deadline fast approaches and (stop me if you’ve heard this before) the Braves HAVE to add at least one quality starting pitcher if they want to expect any serious postseason success (setting aside the performance on offense). Without adding a postseason-quality starter, they would need to operate a three or four man rotation […]
In a game that first crawled due to a deluge of walks (but few runs) and then saw dueling late-inning paroxysms in each team’s final time at the plate, the Braves eventually emerged victorious. But boy, was it a winding path to get there. At the beginning of this contest, things seemed like they were […]
Game three of four. The Braves haven’t won a home series against the Padres since 2018, and it doesn’t look too promising here, either. But, you never know!
The San Diego Padres (50-51) face the Atlanta Braves (58-42) at Truist Park in a regular season MLB matchup on Wednesday. The Padres currently sit in third place in the National League West, while the Braves are at the top…

The San Diego Padres may have played one of their most balanced games of the season in the second matchup versus the Braves in Atlanta on Tuesday. The newly rejiggered lineup paid off and starter Walker Buehler was able to push through some second inning wildness to complete more than five innings for the 8-3 […]
Not like the Braves could really do worse against Michael King… It’s been a bit of a whirlwind for Austin Riley — he was hitting sixth or seventh for a long while, but then moved up to cleanup against a southpaw on Monday, and stayed there against Walker Buehler on Tuesday. With a right-hander on […]
The universe is cold and unfeeling, but also apparently has a bit of a twisted sense of humor. How’s that for a paradox? This is my way of saying that once again, I have game coverage for a Martin Perez start… something I’ve enjoyed less than most things the Braves have devised to put on […]
The Braves made a notable roster move amid their series with the Padres, optioning JR Ritchie back to Gwinnett and activating Martin Perez from the Injured List. Perez will start tonight as the Braves aim to take Game 3 against San Diego. The #Braves today reinstated LHP Martín Pérez from the injured list and optioned […]
The Atlanta Braves do a lot of things that typically play up well in October. Home run ball? They’re 5th in the league in homers even after a dormant month of June. Dominant bullpen? The Braves have arguably the best group in the game, especially if Robert Suarez returns soon. Ace at the top of […]
TBD no more: between this weekend’s rumblings and JR Ritchie’s 3.2 innings of relief in last night’s loss to San Diego, today’s moves aren’t suprising. Martín Pérez has been activated and is set to start tonight’s game. He has been sidelined since July 6 after suffering a 92 mph liner to the left forearm in […]
