Michael Harris returns to the lineup, batting eighth

As the Braves kick off their homestand against the Guardians, you can read about the pitching matchup between Bryce Elder and Slade Cecconi in the game preview here. Michael Harris returns to his spot in centerfield and at the bottom of the lineup, as the Braves hope he can get better results, as he has […]

Braves News: Guardians on deck, City Connect uniforms, and more

The Atlanta Braves return to Truist Park and kick off the weekend with a three-game set against the Cleveland Guardians. The Braves enter play with an 8-5 record and are coming off a series win in Anaheim, where the run column was high, and emotions even higher. The Guardians come to town with the same […]

Braves off day open thread: April 9

How are we all faring on this first off day? Bored yet? ICYMI: Demetrius had a great chat with Peter Moylan, Ronald is all over the promotional material for the new City Connects, and we published a recap + some takeaways from the series vs. the Halos. Have a great evening!

Past meets present (again) as Braves introduce new City Connect uniforms

Yesterday was a momentous day in Braves franchise history: #715 for Hammerin’ Hank. I will never forget being moved by all of the little details of the first City Connects that honored Aaron’s legacy – the embroidered “Keep Swinging” on the hat, the Art-Deco crown on the sleeve, the 715 scoreboard design on the inside […]

Braves 2026 MLB Draft High School Prospect Update

As we reach April and start to get closer to the 2026 MLB Draft, we have looked at the college players in this draft a couple of times this season already. Now it’s time to turn our attention to some of the high school options that the Atlanta Braves may want to select this year. […]

Braves News: Reynaldo Lopez suspension, Sean Murphy update, more

Well the Braves are quietly cruising so far this season, with a strong 8-5 record and tied for the MLB lead in run differential. The rotation hasn’t been a weakness yet overall, though the fifth spot had been pretty rough, and while the offense hasn’t been truly humming, only 3 teams in MLB have scored […]

Relentless Braves top Angels 8-2 to take series

Okay, so technically relentless would be scoring in every inning, and the Braves only scored in five of the nine frames available to them, but hey — it worked just fine. The offense started early and didn’t stop until well past clobberin’ time, leading to an 8-2 victory over the Angels. Meanwhile, Grant Holmes did […]

Jorge Soler and Reynaldo López updated suspension after brawl in Anaheim

The updated verdict is out for Los Angeles Angels’ Jorge Soler and Atlanta Braves’ Reynaldo López. Both players were initially set to receive a seven-game suspension following last night’s viral altercation, per Jeff Passan. However, after filing an appeal, less than an hour later, AJC Braves beat writer Chad Bishop reported that López had gotten […]

Mike Yastrzemski starts against a lefty as Braves go for series win

Is Eli White okay? I haven’t seen anything indicating he is, but that makes this particular Braves arrangement a bit of a headscratcher: A lot of this is what we’ve seen be the Braves’ usual fare against lefties this season. But Mike Yastrzemski is hanging out there, left-on-left, in the seventh spot in the lineup. […]

Sean Murphy will be assigned to Triple-A Gwinnett for rehab assignment

Last night, Walt Weiss told the assorted Braves media that catcher Sean Murphy would be heading on a rehab assignment as soon as Friday. While we knew that Friday would be the day, we didn’t know which of the four Braves minor league teams that Murphy would be playing for as he makes his final […]

Braves look to take series, finish winning road trip behind Grant Holmes

The Braves have been, perhaps disappointingly, even steven so far on their seven-game swing out West: they split a four-game set with the Diamondbacks, and then split the first two games of this series with the Angels. After some fisticuffs and go-for-the-throat bullpen management in a win last night, they have a chance to both […]

Braves Minor League Recap: David McCabe homers

It was a strong set of games on Tuesday for the Atlanta Braves system, with three of four teams winning and Columbus only losing to some late pitching struggles. The position player depth at the lower levels was at full display with some important performances down in Augusta and Rome, especially the games from Alex […]

Braves News: Benches clear in Anaheim, Sean Murphy update, and more

The Atlanta Braves evened the series on Tuesday night after a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels. Reynaldo López got the start. He allowed two runs, walked two, and struck out seven. Things were going relatively well, and then it got a bit punchy (literally). In the bottom of the fifth, benches cleared after […]

Braves, Angels throw punches as Atlanta wins 7-2

In what was an otherwise routine and mostly quiet game on Tuesday night between the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels, a big time brawl broke out between Braves starter Reynaldo Lopez and former World Series hero Jorge Soler. Let’s set the stage. Earlier in the game, Lopez hit Soler in the hand with a […]

Reynaldo López and Jorge Soler both get ejected for fighting each other

Dude. The Atlanta Braves are currently up 4-2 on the Los Angeles Angels in the bottom of the fifth inning during the middle game of their three-game series in Anaheim. The Braves will have to go without starting pitcher Reynaldo López for the remainder of the contest after he got thrown out for getting into […]

Introducing a new weekly series where we review what we’ve seen, and heart from the latest week of minor league action. This past weekend we saw all the full season teams start their yearly grind so let’s take a glance at what happened. Who’s Hot Ethan Bagwell – 6IP 0H 0R 1BB 6K, 16 whiffs […]

Fun with small sample sizes: An 11-game look at the 2026 Atlanta Braves

So, we’re just over 10 games into the season for the Atlanta Braves and the on-paper results have been encouraging — even if the on-field results have the Braves just one game over .500 as they look to avoid dipping below that mark as they deal with the seemingly impossible task of winning baseball games […]

Was that Chris Sale’s worst start as a Brave?

The season had been going pretty well. I wasn’t really concerned with a split with the Diamondbacks, as I figured that’s what would happen going in — in the exact fashion of winning the first two and losing the next two. But, despite how good Jose Soriano is, I figured the Braves would win on […]
