Braves vs. Rockies chat and discussion: Tyler Mahle vs. Mason Adams

Alright, folks! The Braves are going for a second sweep in a row in order to keep things going in the right direction heading into September. Can Tyler Mahle continue getting it done on the mound, himself? Will the Rockies continue nipping at Atlanta’s heels during this series? It’s time to figure it all out, […]

Colorado Rockies at Atlanta Braves game discussion: Mason Adams vs. Tyler Mahle

Break out those scrambled eggs and mimosas, because we’ve got brunch baseball on deck this Sunday morning!

Sean Murphy hits seventh, Ha-Seong Kim back in the lineup for Rockies finale

The Braves have re-added Sean Murphy and Ha-Seong Kim to the lineup, with Murphy moving up to the seventh spot: Murphy made his season debut hitting seventh, but has largely hit eighth or ninth since his most recent reactivation from the Injured List. With Mauricio Dubon in left field, Mike Yastrzemski gets a “day off.” […]

Braves Minor League Recap: Daniel Brooks Dominant, Hartman Steals 50th

Saturday’s action in the Atlanta Braves system was headlined by another dominant outing from Daniel Brooks for Rome. The other big story is the fact that Eric Hartman crossed the 50 stolen base mark, and kept going. Same story for Luis Guanipa, though it was the 40-steal mark for him. We also got homers from […]

Tyler Mahle takes the mound as Braves go for sweep of Rockies

There’s whiplash-inducing, and then there’s whatever the Braves have done in August. The month started with five wins in a row, the bulk of an eight-game winning streak. Then there was a stretch where the Braves won just one of five series, including suffering a sweep at the hands of the Twins. But, they’re reeling […]

Braves News: Martin Perez, taking care of business, more

Martin Perez has given this Braves team 121.0 important innings of reasonably well pitched and fortunate innings this season. It was far from a lock that he would make the roster and he was even DFA’d, but those innings have been very important to Atlanta’s current position. He hasn’t pitched like a 3.05 ERA pitcher, […]

Braves offense does just enough to back stellar pitching

After a late scratch of the Rockies’ starting pitcher, the Braves were hoping to secure a series win against the Colorado bullpen with Martin Perez on the mound. The game started slowly, with scattered baserunners but no runs, exactly what you’d expect in a matchup between Martin Perez and the Rockies bullpen in 2026. The […]

Start of Braves-Rockies delayed due to rain

The bad news is that today’s game between the Atlanta Braves and the Colorado Rockies won’t be starting on time. The tarp has been on the field for just over half an hour now , as scattered showers have once again hit The Battery. It’s kind of similar to what happened on Friday night, which […]

Mauricio Dubon returns to the cleanup spot, playing shortstop

After a good night from Ronald Acuna on Friday, he slots back in batting second behind Baldwin, as Mauricio Dubon returns to batting cleanup. The Braves have a fairly soft pitching matchup tonight, so hopefully they can get some more offensive momentum going. Meanwhile, the Rockies lineup can be viewed below. As you can see, […]

Braves look for series win behind Martin Perez

Well after two electric series against the two best teams in the NL, the Braves have quite the drop-off in competition, facing the Rockies. They took care of business on Friday night behind Grant Holmes and will now hope for another win behind Martin Perez in what is a favorable pitching matchup for Atlanta, despite […]

Braves News: Hurston Waldrep, Spencer Schwellenbach updates, and more

The Atlanta Braves received some unfortunate news on the pitching front Friday, as two starting pitchers will be undergoing surgery. Right-hander Hurston Waldrep will undergo Tommy John surgery, requiring him to miss all of the 2027 season. Fellow righty Spencer Schwellenbach will undergo surgery on the same elbow he fractured last year. There has not […]

Big hit eludes Rockies as Braves win series opener 6-4

After splitting a series against the Washington Nationals, the Colorado Rockies looked to start the series in Atlanta on a high note. Despite a solid night offensively, the Rockies left a small village on the base paths as the big hit eluded them and couldn’t keep pace with a dangerous Braves offense. A tough night […]

Rockies at Braves Chat and Discussion: Grant Holmes vs. Tomoyuki Sugano

Get your Friday reds on – it’s nearly time for the Braves-Rockies series opener. Dubie gets to be the featured photo on this today because of the time he left eyeblack on the wall at Coors the last time we faced the Rockies. Join us in the comments this evening, won’t you? I’d originally said […]

Dodgers’ Dave Roberts makes thoughts clear on Tarik Skubal pitching against Tigers

With the Los Angeles Dodgers looking to bounce back after a complete-game shutout by Atlanta Braves pitcher Chris Sale, the focus is now on the start of a new series against the Detroit Tigers, which begins on Friday night. In the opening game of the series, it will be Dodgers pitcher Tarik Skubal going up […] The post Dodgers’ Dave Roberts makes thoughts clear on Tarik Skubal pitching against Tigers appeared first on ClutchPoints .
