Latest news and updates about the Braves
The Braves continue to win and are now 42-20. Not only do they continue to win, but they continue to win without many of their best players available. They have the best record in baseball and should see Drake Baldwin return towards the middle of the month, who was having a down-ballot MVP-caliber season, and […]
Blue Jays 3 Braves 7 We got more than 2 runs!!!! They should have scored a few runs in the first inning. It started single (Nathan Lukes), single (Yohendrick Piñango) and walk (Vladimir Guerrero). The walk included Vlad challenging a called strike, which, the review showed, was easily a strike. I hate blowing a challenge […]
Game two of the series with the Braves. More scoring would be nice today. The team says that Chad Dallas is up with the team, in case they need an extra arm tomorrow. I suppose that depends on how deep Patrick Corbin can go in tonight’s game. The cool thing about the rule that you […]
The stage is set for game two in Truist Park, where the Braves’ offense is looking to support Grant Holmes in a steady outing against the Toronto Blue Jays. First pitch is set for 7:15 p.m. EDT. Check back with us for a recap of tonight’s turn of events. Game Notes Preview Lineup
Not to fear, Braves fans, the starting rotation’s depth is soon to get stronger. While we are waiting for the return of some more helpful hands like Spencer Schwellenbach and Hurston Waldrep, Smith-Shawver is another young dominant arm that is expected to make an impact in Atlanta’s rotation. After suffering a torn UCL that cut […]
After frustratingly exiting the mound with seven hits and two earned runs across 4 2/3 innings pitched against Cincinnati, Holmes is looking to turn it around with a dominant performance in today’s matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays. In a back-and-forth matchup that ended with a Matt Olson homer, the Atlanta Braves are coming off […]
The Atlanta Braves DSL level squad, the lowest level in professional baseball, opened their play on June 1st to become the final affiliated league to get underway in 2026. I thought now would be a good time to take a look at that roster and give you some players to watch from that team. Unlike […]
This season the Nats have matched up well with high priced teams like the Braves, Padres and Mets. However, the scrappy Marlins have given them all sorts of issues. They have lost four straight games against the fish, and these games follow familiar patterns. The Marlins are able to quiet the Nats bats, and then […]
Tuesday was a fascinating evening for those fans of the Atlanta Braves minor league system. There were a couple of big returns — Drue Hackenberg off of the injured list and Blake Burkhalter to rehab in Rome. Then there were prospects making a huge impact at the dish, notably John Gil’s home run and the […]
The Braves fished Sandy Leon out of the Mexican League in the wake of injuries to their catchers. He got a hit in his first start. He got a hit in his second start. He has no hits since. He has no walks since. The Braves didn’t get him to hit, but his .064 wOBA […]
Likely to no one’s surprise, the Atlanta Braves have made another roster move involving right-hander Carlos Carrasco. After being designated for assignment for the third time this season, Atlanta selected him to the major league roster ahead of Tuesday’s game. His last appearance for the Braves came against the Boston Red Sox on May 27. […]
Blue Jays 3 Braves 4 That wasn’t Kevin Gausman’s best game. 6 innings, 5 hits, 4 earned, 2 walks, 8 strikeouts and a home run. Of course, when you get 18 outs and 8 of them are strikeouts, it seems like it should be a good game. But, he gave up 2 in the first […]
With a pitching matchup that favors the Blue Jays on paper, even with Bryce Elder’s solid performance this season, the Braves got off to a dream start in the first, with a Ronald Acuna turning into a run with a Michael Harris double. Harris came around on a groundout and a sac fly for a […]
The Atlanta Braves have spent the first two months of the 2026 season proving they belong atop Major League Baseball. After a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night, the Braves improved their MLB-best record to 41-20 and further cemented their status as a legitimate World Series contender.

Game one of three in Atlanta. There is some rain in the forecast, but it sounds like the game should happen.The Braves have been through several ballparks, in the last few years, none with a roof. But it sounds like the game should happen. There is hockey tonight too, which may make my decision to […]
The Jays shared some injury news today: Apparently it is raining in Atlanta. I’m hoping the game will happen, because I’ve planed to watch at the bar with a friend, and, if the game doesn’t happen, we’ll have to talk or something.

To say Ha-Seong Kim is struggling is an understatement. The Korean SS couldn’t play for his national team at the World Baseball Classic after tearing a tendon in his middle finger. He underwent surgery in January and missed four months. Kim spent the first four years of his MLB career with the San Diego Padres.

With a matchup of Bryce Elder vs Kevin Gausman on the mound in game 1 of the series against Toronto and of the two-series homestand, the Braves are once again rolling with Jorge Mateo over Ha-Seong Kim at shortstop. Mateo is the hot hand and has been legitimately very good for Atlanta this season, providing […]
The Braves announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Carlos Carrasco. The righty takes the 40-man spot that was opened when he himself was designated for assignment a few days ago.

The Braves have gone 40-20 so far this season, burying their closest competitors at 9.5 games back out of […]
The 2026 Braves have been no stranger to superlative offensive performance. In April, Michael Harris II dumped an absurd .443 xwOBA on the league. While he massively underhit his inputs, Dominic Smith and Matt Olson posted near-.400 xwOBAs and above-.400 wOBAs. In May, it was a trio of Drake Baldwin, Ronald Acuña Jr., and Jorge Mateo […]
