There was a point, less than four hours from first pitch, when the Giants hadn’t announced a starter, and neither team had announced a lineup. Closer to three hours now, we have the lineups, but still no actual known Giants starter or opener. In light of that, the Braves have this lineup going: The top […]
Alright, it’s Friday, this game preview is going up in the mid-afternoon because this game is happening very late if you are on East Coast time, and I’m going to take a quick detour because I’m not sure how many people even read game previews in general, much less read game previews that will go […]
The San Diego Padres (42-37) are running with new life after sweeping the Atlanta Braves this week, but they still rank last in OPS, batting average, on-base percentage, slugging and runs scored.

Happy Friday, one and all! As some of you might have predicted, after Phase 1 of the All-Star voting was completed, there were no Cubs on the shortlist. Outside of the Braves and Dodgers, actually, there wasn’t a lot of team diversity in the top names. But that was kind of to be expected. In […]

New York Mets ace Freddy Peralta pitches on Thursday. These trades to the Cubs, Blue Jays and Braves would get the job done, though they are expensive.
Death. Taxes. This current era of the Atlanta Braves having nearly nothing go right for them whenever they’re in California.

The New York Yankees may have a decision to make on shortstop Anthony Volpe, who has actually played well over the last month or so. While the power is down for Volpe, he’s putting the ball in play much more and is a much better situational hitter this season, but how long will it last?

Coming into the season, the Braves rotation was a significant concern, especially after the injuries to Spencer Schwellenbach and Hurston Waldrep. They were able to hide those glaring issues over the first couple of months, but the warts are out in the open now. As currently constructed, this is among the worst rotations in baseball, […]
JP Sears was called up to the majors to take the start for the San Diego Padres against the Atlanta Braves in their series finale at Petco Park in place of Lucas Giolito who landed on the injured list with right elbow inflammation earlier in the week. Sears might have been one of the few […]
I know that no one really wants to remember last year, but the trip to San Francisco was a bit of a fulcrum point. Or, maybe, not a fulcrum point, but the part where the Braves were flipped off the deep end by a lever atop a diabolically-positioned fulcrum. Or something. Specifically, the 2025 Braves […]
