Let’s just get this right out of the way right out of the gate: As long as all five Opening Day starters don’t hit the 60-Day IL at some point during this season like they did during the 2025 season, this rotation should be fine and will be improved over what we saw last season. […]

Wednesday’s three games wrapped up the pool play portion of the WBC, and hurtled us towards the knockout round. Here’s what happened, and how the first knockout round looks like. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: Canada 7, Cuba 2. It was a changing of the guard in this only-winner-advances game, […]

Well, perhaps the two most impressive Atlanta relievers of Spring Training have now been sent to minor league camp, in Hayden Harris and James Karinchak. It seems likely that both will appear in Atlanta this year, assuming Karinchak sticks around long enough to do so as a veteran. They have each been strikeout machines this […]

Earlier this afternoon, the Atlanta Braves optioned reliever Hayden Harris to Triple-A and reassigned starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco and relievers Elieser Hernández and James Karinchak to their minor league camp. Harris is a mild surprise given his stand-out performance this Spring, having struck out 12 batters in five innings. His ability to be optioned – […]

Earlier today, we received some massive news regarding the Atlanta Braves and the new Braves.TV platform. Shortly after that news broke, we got some more important news on where to watch the Braves during the upcoming season. While the lion’s share of games will be on BravesVision, they also have to make room for nationally […]

At the top line, Spencer Strider looked really good on Wednesday afternoon: four innings, one walk, five strikeouts. When you consider that it was a visiting Rays team, maybe that’s more akin to something expected, but… I thought that this was a nice outing for him. When Strider returned from injury last year, my amateur […]

The life of a baseball prospect is defined primarily in small moments. Over the course of long seasons across multiple years it’s rare to feel that any stand out, or that any stretch of play is particularly pivotal in a player’s progression. However, every year there are some you can point to and see as […]

As Spring Training progresses for the 2026 Atlanta Braves, it is becoming clearer by the day that for Atlanta to once again be a true contender, their offense must be among the best in the league. And while the likely loss of Jurickson Profar for the season is a setback, nearly every other offensive regular […]

The Atlanta Braves announced in late-February that their TV network BravesVision was coming our way. This came long with a future promise to announce what the future of their streaming options would be and as it turns out, it’s a familiar one if you’ve been following baseball in recent years. Via press release, the Braves […]

It was a limited slate on Tuesday, but it was an eventful one. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: Japan 9, Czechia 0. I remember seeing the score here yesterday and morning and wondering how Czechia kept the Samurai scoreless for seven frames. Well, Japan had a nine-run eighth, so there […]

The Atlanta Braves dropped Tuesday’s spring contest against the Toronto Blue Jays, 7-0. The bats were quiet, with Atlanta recording just six hits. More so than the bats, pitching was a struggle. JR Ritchie made his first start of the spring and went four innings. He gave up two runs on a single hit. He […]

Not to panic, Atlanta Braves fans, the 0-7 loss from the Braves today seemed to be more of a tune-up for JR Ritchie as he took his first start as a prospect for the Braves (4 IP/ 1 H/ 2 ER/ 4 BB/ 2 K) and playing in his third game in general. His outing […]

We are still four months away from the 2026 MLB Draft, but of course that doesn’t stop pundits from releasing the first of what will be many mock drafts. Baseball America on Monday unveiled their 1.0 version of the draft, predicting each team’s first-round selections. Among the first 30 picks of this year’s draft, Atlanta […]

Seattle native JR Ritchie will be entering his third game and first start with the Braves after being invited as a non-roster prospect during this Spring Training series.

When the Atlanta Braves were at their most dominant a few seasons ago, a lot of that success had to do with the fact that their infield was basically a machine. No matter where you looked in the lineup, it was tough to find an out when all of these guys were in there and […]

On March 9, 2025, long-time Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Julio Teheran announced his retirement. In the midst of the World Baseball Classic, Spring Training and the seemingly never-ending stream of injuries to Atlanta Braves starting pitchers, it is unfortunate that it was a shoulder issue that caused Teheran to miss his scheduled start for Columbia […]

I’m not sure why Ronald Acuña Jr. felt he had to activate beast mode to basically single-handedly destroy Nicaragua, who already had the most heartbreaking story of the tournament, but he did. The victory had Venezuela join four other teams as still undefeated in the tournament, and sets up an exciting Venezuela-D.R. matchup to determine the […]

On one hand, the Braves bats continued to look good in a win over the Twins while Ronald Acuna Jr. dominated for Venezuela in the WBC. However, the Braves once again received “worse case scenario” news in […]

Ronald Acuña Jr. delivered another good performance for Venezuela as his performance essentially pushed them over the top in a win that primes them for a massive clash against the Dominican Republic on Wednesday. As usual, […]

Spring Training tends to be silly, and that was perhaps best exemplified by Monday afternoon’s game against the Twins. The Braves won 9-8, but gave up a whopping five homers. I guess a 12/0 K/BB ratio is the saving grace when you give up five homers, but considering the Braves didn’t hit any homers, it […]
