Latest news and updates about the Braves
Mauricio Dubón and the Atlanta Braves had a successful night after Friday’s 6-3 defeat of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Braves improved to 43-21 and are 20-11 at Truist Park. Dubón continued his hot streak, and in four at-bats, he recorded two hits, three RBI, and two runs. He’s homered in three straight games and is […]
The adage goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but I’ll tell you this: I don’t know if your heart can grow fonder of Mauricio Dubon, but if such a thing is even possible, then said fondness has probably grown quite a bit this week. The Braves’ […]
Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Schwellenbach is currently recovering from an elbow injury. While the Braves have performed well despite his injury absence, Atlanta would obviously love for the starter to join the rotation this season. However, manager Walt Weiss reportedly said Schwellenbach is not close to returning at the moment, according to Mark Bowman […] The post Spencer Schwellenbach injury update could impact Braves’ trade deadline plans appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Atlanta Braves are starting their weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates where it looks like they may have lucked out and not have to face Paul Skenes who pitched on Wednesday. Martín Pérez is easily having his best season since 2022 and will be facing Mitch Keller who is having his standard low fours […]

It has been nearly a calendar year since Atlanta Braves pitcher Spencer Schwellenbach fired a pitch in a baseball game. On Friday, Braves manager Walt Weiss confirmed that Schwellenbach continues to throw from flat ground but is still nowhere near close to beginning a rehab assignment for the team. It’s not exactly surprising news as […]
Both occupy playoff spots, but neither can afford to let the deadline pass by without addressing their biggest weaknesses.
Two of the top four offenses in runs scored will face off tonight when the Pittsburgh Pirates come to town to play the Atlanta Braves. The Braves are third in MLB in runs and the Pirates are only four runs behind them. The Braves will be facing Mitch Keller who has yet again put together […]
The Atlanta Braves were not able to get a sweep of the reigning AL champion Toronto Blue Jays yesterday, but they did win the series and look to take that momentum into the weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates are having somewhat of a surprising season this year with a .540 record, and […]
It’s a big year for voting, some have said. We’re not talking about the November kind here, though. It’s June, which means many dollars and debates are going to be centered on your very favorite baseball players. Welcome to All-Star Game voting season, folks! I’ll get it out of the way now: the Braves really, […]
MLB’s prospect coverage site, Pipeline, released a new mock draft for the 2026 MLB Draft last night. In that mock draft they had the Atlanta Braves selecting two players whose names have been prominently discussed in and around the Top 10 prospects in the draft class dating back to last winter. With the first pick, […]
The Yankees managed to salvage a win and avoid a sweep by the Guardians at Yankee Stadium on the back of strong solid pitching from Carlos Rodón, shutdown bullpen work, and some clutch hitting by Ryan McMahon. With the win, the Yankees climb to within a half-game of the Rays, who had the day off. […]
This question is very clearly prompted by last night’s loss, where the Blue Jays (surprisingly?) did not BABIP over .500… but they got pretty close. There was a game the Braves lost to the Red Sox recently — the 8-0 shellacking, where the Red Sox had a .400 BABIP, and the Braves had a .208 […]
The Atlanta Braves announced several moves on Thursday morning, most notably adding a new catcher to the mix. The club acquired catcher Austin Wynns from the Los Angeles Angels and selected him to the major league roster. In addition, fellow catcher Chadwick Tromp was designated for assignment, outfielder DaShawn Keirsey Jr. was optioned to Triple-A […]
Blue Jay 7 Braves 2 I figured the Chris Sale start would be the tough one to win, but wrong again. The Jays scored: We had 16 hits. 16. That’s more than we’ve had in a week. And we were 7 for 18 with RISP. How many times does a team get 18 runners into […]
The final game in Atlanta. They’ve lost the series and four in a row, and avoiding the sweep will be difficult with Chris Sale on the mound. They’ve gone for a righty maximizing lineup to try to counter, which has Charles McAdoo at second and Daulton Varsho and Andres Gimenez sitting. That will make defence […]
As the Braves go for a sweep of Toronto Thursday night, it doesn’t seem like a very fair pitching matchup on paper. Atlanta is starting its ace, Chris Sale. Toronto is using an opener, Mason Fluherty, and then likely giving Chad Dallas his major league debut after he was promoted to the major league roster […]
If the Washington Nationals decide to sell high on red-hot shortstop CJ Abrams, these five MLB teams could get in on the bidding.
It's officially MLB trade deadline season. Whether it be a new Tarik Skubal suitor in the Braves, or the Red Sox overvaluing Jarren Duran, the MLB rumors are just beginning.
There will be no rubber match this time for the Braves, with the series already in hand entering Thursday’s home finale against the Toronto Blue Jays. Instead, Atlanta is going for its first sweep since early May. And it’ll be doing it with its ace on the mound. Chris Sale (8-3, 2.01 ERA) gets the […]
The Atlanta Braves adjusted their roster Thursday, and the latest moves included designating catcher Chadwick Tromp for assignment. Atlanta selected Austin Wynns to the major league roster, giving the team a veteran catching option while it continues working through injury-related depth issues. The Braves also selected outfielder DaShawn Keirsey Jr. to the major league roster […] The post Braves latest roster moves include making DFA decision on catcher appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Atlanta Braves have continued their hot streak of late, recently picking up a second straight win over the Toronto Blue Jays. The Braves sit with the best record in the MLB at 42-20, but that doesn’t mean that the team won’t look to get better at the upcoming MLB trade deadline. The hottest name […] The post Braves rumors: Jeff Passan names best non-Tarik Skubal trade fit appeared first on ClutchPoints .
With the calendar now having flipped to June, it’s only natural to start thinking about other events looming on the baseball horizon (well, outside of the potentially apocalyptic event that’s awaiting everybody once this offseason officially gets underway). One of those is the Trade Deadline, which is set for August 3 this season. As such, […]
The Braves announced a slate of roster moves today, most notably shaking up their catching corps a bit. Atlanta acquired veteran catcher Austin Wynns from the Angels in exchange for cash (as first noted on the MLB.com transaction log) and selected him to the major league roster. Fellow backstop Chadwick Tromp was designated for assignment […]
It may be time to accept that the NL East division title is likely out of the picture for the Phillies. There are still over 100 games left to play in the regular season, but the Phillies’ early swoon and the Braves’ hot start has likely given Atlanta a big enough lead that it’s become […]
