Your one stop shop for everything Atlanta Braves
Good evening, y’all. So, we’ve got a bit of a series going on in The Feed where we’re asking everybody to map out an All-Time Braves lineup using a grid. If you haven’t already checked it out yet, mosey on over and cast your vote in the first entry so we can get that going. […]

The Atlanta Braves didn’t send a particularly imposing group of players to Sarasota to face off against the Baltimore Orioles but that didn’t matter too much in the end. The first two hurlers for the Braves helped make sure that the Orioles were unable to set off too many fireworks at their own spring training […]

I remember a time where no one would’ve thought about this. Instead, in this timeline, we now have MLB’s own website providing charts and data: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/drag-dashboard. Let’s recap, in broad strokes: the lower the drag coefficient, the further the ball travels through the air, essentially. That has an impact on a lot of stuff in […]

On Sunday, Braves baseball finally felt back as many of the projected starters for the team were in action. Ronald Acuna Jr. was in the lead-off spot, where it was confirmed he will once again bat this season. Chris Sale looked good on the mound, and all of the starters just seemed to be excited […]

The first home Spring Training game started very promising for Atlanta, with the Braves’ stars looking good. Chris Sale struck out his first two batters and ended up with three strikeouts over 2.0 innings, no walks, and only one hard-hit ball in the form of a 95.9 MPH grounder. Chris Sale looked like Chris Sale […]

Well today we have Atlanta’s first “home” game of 2026 Spring Training and we are treated to Chris Sale on the mound. Not only is a potential future Hall of Famer on the mound, but the Braves are rolling out what could be most of the Opening Day lineup. The only member of the likely […]

My Youtube feed is organized crime show clips, baseball, and standup comedy right now. Then on Friday, something that might combine all three shows up. Now this is retelling of a pretty well known sequence where Greg Maddux hits Jose Canseco in 2000. It’s not even that new. Pretty good stuff, though. Then Chipper Jones […]

We’ll be treated to a Chris Sale start […]

If first impressions are any indication, then the Atlanta Braves and their fanbase should be pretty happy with what Mike Yastrzemski may have in store for the upcoming season. One of the newest signings for the Braves made his presence felt almost immediately in the Grapefruit League opener. He kept that up and had a […]

The offseason is officially over and now it’s time to get rocking and rolling. While it’s not quite the same as Opening Day and never will be on that level, it’s still lovely to either turn on the TV or fire up the radio and hear the crack of the bat and baseballs hitting leather […]

Major League Baseball doesn’t have a long offseason by calendar days. But man, it’s been a long one this season. It’s time for getting your nearly everyday baseball fix. Although, for the next few weeks it’s going to be more like Braves ‘n’ Friends. We’re getting Mike Yastrzemski, Jonah Heim, Eli White, Jorge Mateo and […]

We’re officially one night’s sleep away from getting the Grapefruit League underway for the Atlanta Braves. With that being said, the team sure took their time before letting everybody know who’d be playing and most importantly, who’d be starting on the mound over in Port Charlotte against the Tampa Bay Rays. As it turns out, […]

I guess I could’ve worded this, “Do you actually watch Spring Training games,” too. Today marks the start of Grapefruit and Cactus League action. There are a few games against unaffiliated teams, too. But the full slate really begins tomorrow. Me, I’ll watch pretty much any MLB baseball. Though the pitch clock made it somewhat […]

The Atlanta Braves got a taste of the future of umpiring this week, testing Major League Baseball’s new Automated Ball Strike Challenge System during Spring Training in North Port. The system gives teams two opportunities per game to challenge a called ball or strike and forced Braves players and coaches to begin adjusting to what […]

The start of spring training is usually the time of year where we start to hear copious reports about [insert any baseball player you want here] being in The Best Shape of His Life heading into camp. Ronald Acuña Jr. may fall into this category after he was spotted hitting batting practice bombs at the […]

So much kvetching about the state of the rotation, which is understandable given the injury news before Spring Training games have even begun. But, let’s pivot slightly: we know the deals that have already happened. Which ones should the Braves have made? The list of signed free agent starters is here: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/free-agent-tracker?sign=signed&pos=sp For me, the […]

Well barring a last minute blockbuster trade, it really seems like the Opening Day rotation will look like Chris Sale, Spencer Strider, Reynaldo Lopez, Grant Holmes, and the winner of the competition between Bryce Elder, Joey Wentz, and perhaps some other options, if they can all make it there healthy. You will note that Sale […]
