With the MLB postseason no longer delivering frenetic news days given that we’re in League Championship Series season, where there’s not even two games on most days, it’s time for the faux-anticipation of dropping finalists (not winners, finalists) for certain end-of-season awards. We’ve got two on the docket today. First, Gold Gloves. I have a […]

With the offseason underway (for our Atlanta Braves, at least), it’s time to start looking forward to the future — well, as much as you can when you consider what awaits the baseball world once the start of December rolls around. Either way, teams are going to be keeping it business as usual until that […]
Earlier today Rawlings announced the finalists for this years Gold Glove awards. TJ Rumfield was named as a finalist among National League first basemen alongside Matt Olson of the Atlanta Braves and Ty France of the San Diego Padres. Rumfield’s consistent glove work helped stabilize the Rockies infield all season, and it appears as though […]
It’s tough to know exactly how much the Braves will have to spend this offseason, thanks to the looming lockout. But if last year is any guide, the number is probably somewhere around $35-45 million. That’s enough for one or two meaningful additions — but with this many holes to fill, Anthopoulos will almost certainly […]
As we gear up for a winter that will hopefully be filled with improvements to the Braves’ roster, let’s take a trip down memory lane and grade what Alex Anthopoulos actually got done this time last year. This is often where World Series are won — and unfortunately for the Braves, Anthopoulos hasn’t conjured much […]
I had this weird thought the other day: 2026 was someone’s first Braves season. And, I mean, yeah, there’s a possibility that “first Braves season” meant the first time being aware of the Braves as a small child — which is probably fun in the moment, but won’t stick as a “season” in the memory […]
Despite an early exit in the NLDS for the Atlanta Braves, the Postseason rolled on with Game 2 of the ALCS on Tuesday. The Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Cleveland Guardians 3-1 to even the series. The NLCS continues this evening between the Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers. Braves News: There are plenty of […]

Every general manager has deals — whether by trade or in free agency — he’d love to have back. Alex Anthopoulos has been calling the shots in Atlanta for a decade, and while he’s done far more good than bad, a few warts on the résumé are inevitable when you’ve been around that long. In […]
It’s been more than 10 days since the Phillies were eliminated by the Atlanta Braves in in the NLWCS, yet […]
Obviously, the looming MLB lockout is going to have a massive impact on how teams approach free agency. If a salary cap gets implemented, there’s a real chance the Braves won’t have much money to spend at all. But until we know how that shakes out, let’s take a look at where the club stands […]
The Atlanta Braves lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLDS, being eliminated in the MLB Playoffs in four games. The Braves now prepare for the offseason after an early exit. The Braves did not score well in the series, but they did do one thing very well, despite it not mattering, per Grant […] The post 1 thing Braves did right that didn’t matter in NLDS loss to Dodgers appeared first on ClutchPoints .
After eight months of nonstop discussion about the Braves’ pitching — or lack thereof — it was the bats that ultimately cost Atlanta a shot at the NLCS. But the team’s heavy reliance on its relievers still shaped the series. Even with Ray Kerr and Dylan Dodd stepping up as openers, fatigue crept in on […]
Yesterday saw limited action in the Arizona Fall League, as only one of the three games on the schedule got played – and that game was shortened to seven innings. However we did get to watch a pair of Atlanta Braves prospects as Isaiah Drake got the start in left field for the Glendale Desert […]
Sticking with the rotation since there isn’t really much else to discuss… Didier Fuentes may or may not be ticketed for the rotation in 2027, assuming there is a 2027 season. Chris Sale can’t fend off Father Time forever, but he’s done a good job of it so far. Grant Holmes exists. Bryce Elder exists. […]
Once again, the Braves are entering an offseason where many questions need to be answered. And unfortunately, many of those questions will be focused on how reliable talents already with the Braves will be moving forward. That of course spotlights all the injuries that some of the Braves most promising your arms have went through […]
The 1994 MLB lockout wiped out the World Series. Now it could happen again. With Fox Sports reporting 3.2 million viewers for the first two NLDS games between the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers, baseball is drawing fans in like never before.

While its own offense struggles to solve October, Atlanta can only look back and wonder what if.
The Los Angeles Dodgers landed in an awkward position Monday. The Milwaukee Brewers jumped to a 2-0 lead thanks to the relief pitchers shutting down LA’s bats in the 7-4 victory. But now fans have this demand: Seeing Josue De Paula get a new chance. The designated hitter endured his struggles against the Atlanta Braves.

After a series facing plenty of left-handers against the Braves, the Dodgers offense will see a second right-handed starter in Milwaukee. Although the scoring output was disappointing in Game 1, Dave Roberts sticks with his approach of righty-lefty throughout the lineup, but there are a couple of changes. Tommy Edman, who was on the bench […]
The Atlanta Braves have too much talent to keep watching their seasons end before they can make another serious run at a World Series championship. After falling to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Division Series, Atlanta must figure out how to turn a talented roster into a team capable of surviving October.
