How will the Braves use Didier Fuentes in 2027?
(Of course, pending the existence of a 2027 season, after all…) Alex Anthopoulos said a whole lotta nothing in his latest presser, though this isn’t really surprising considering A) his approach to press is “how do I divulge as little information as possible in as much time as possible” and B) the Braves haven’t done […]
Braves News: Alex Anthopoulos Year End Press Conference, Arizona Fall League, More
Alex Anthopoulos made his end of year comments on Sunday, speaking on many different topics from the 2026 season. Per usual, there was not much in terms of specific focuses or future actions given away. However, Anthopoulos did speak on some names. This includes the lack of reliability moving forward on names such as Spencer […]

Alex Anthopoulos provides update on starting pitchers, coaching staff heading into 2027
Atlanta Braves President of Baseball Operations, Alex Anthopoulos, met with the media earlier today and addressed a handful of issues ahead of the 2027 season.

Braves News: Tarik Skubal rumor, ALCS matchup, more
The Braves reportedly refused to consider trading Didier Fuentes to the Tigers in a potential package for Tarik Skubal at the trade deadline.

ALDS Game 5, White Sox vs Guardians Chat and Discussion
Yay, more playoff baseball. Here is your Battery Power ALDS Game 5 Chat and Discussion. However, you’re not limited to this. It’s also for whatever. There are some football games going on as well. I’m losing weight to the tune of 10 pounds in 4 weeks. My kid just discovered Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It’s […]
Braves reportedly declined to involve Didier Fuentes in Tarik Skubal trade talks
Just because the Atlanta Braves are done for the year here in 2026, that doesn’t mean that the rumor mill needs to stop. In fact, apparently we’re still learning new details about trades that didn’t happen all the way back in August around the Trade Deadline. We learned a while back that the Braves were […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Owen Carey drives in a run for Glendale
As the major league postseason churns on, a handful of Braves farmhands are making an impact in the Arizona Fall League. Let’s dive into Friday’s action. (1-5) Glendale River Dogs 9, (5-1) Salt River Rafters 13 Box Score Briggs McKenzie made his second start of the postseason, but it unfortunately did not go all that […]
OK, what do we do now?
The watching Braves baseball portion of our year has ended. Now it’s the offseason. We’ll watch the rest of MLB’s postseason with you here. But outside of that, we will be into offseason programming. We’ll have player reviews soon. We’ll slowly perform an autopsy of the season. After that, it’s a lockout. The owners seem […]
Braves designate Luke Williams for assignment, select Danny Young
No, this isn’t a post that was delayed four months. That Atlanta Braves have begun their off-season roster machinations with the team’s transaction page showing that utilityman Luke Williams has been designated for assignment while left-handed reliever Danny Young has been selected to the roster. This follows a slew of transactions on October 8 to […]
Braves News: Free agent predictions, Arizona Fall League, and more
Friday marked a slow day for the Atlanta Braves on the news front as the club settles into the offseason. After another early exit, the Braves will determine which pending free agents should rejoin the club. From Ha-Seong Kim to Mauricio Dubón, let’s dive into the looming free agents and the value they could bring […]
Postseason off day chat and discussion: October 9
Slow news day, eh? The Atlanta Braves are out, the 2026 NLCS is set and the winner-take-all Game 5 in the ALDS between the Chicago White Sox and the Cleveland Guardians won’t be happening until tomorrow night, so we’re getting a sneak peek at what the offseason is going to feel like. It’s not fun, […]
Braves Minor League Recap: Isaiah Drake Records a Hit
(1-4) Glendale Desert Dogs 2, (2-3) Peoria Javelinas 10 box score It was another bad day for the Glendale team all around. They have been struggling to get any sort of good play from the team. and after allowing six runs in the second inning of this game it was a quick decline to a […]
Which pending free agent(s) will the Braves bring back?
With the season over, rosterbation is the only recourse as far as Braves baseball is concerned. Of course, the pending lockout will put a damper on offseason proceedings for a while, but leaving that aside… which pending free agent(s) do you think the Braves will bring back? Let’s start with Ha-Seong Kim. He was super-bad. […]
Braves News: 2026 season reactions, offseason improvements, and more
The Atlanta Braves are heading into an important offseason after another NL East title ended with a disappointing postseason exit. While the team put together a 94 win season, there is still work to be done if Atlanta hopes to make a deeper playoff run in 2027. With plenty to evaluate from the past season, […]
Postseason / ALDS Game 4 chat and discussion, October 8
Good evening, y’all. At this time yesterday, I had posted something along the lines of “can we borrow some runs @/guardians”, because our game was deadlocked and Cleveland was well on their way to the 9-3 final score against the Chicago White Sox to stave off their elimination. Must be fun to score a lot. […]
So, where do the Atlanta Braves go from here following another Postseason exit?
It’s The Day After and now that we’ve all had some time to really take things into perspective, the obvious thing to do in times like this is to look forward. The good news is that following their exit in the NLDS at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers, it’s pretty clear where the […]
Season’s done — are you satisfied, gratified, both, or neither?
The Braves’ season came to end on Wednesday night. It’s hard to tie a nice bow on the narrative arc with the loss: Tyler Mahle was good, the bullpen was not, and the Braves were neither done in by one of their particular strengths nor a specific, exceptional weakness. The offense started out very well […]
Braves News: Season over, Tyler Mahle, Offseason, more
Well the Braves’ season is over, despite Tyler Mahle’s and Michael Harris’ best efforts. Now we move into the offseason that holds ample uncertainty for the sport and for the team. A lockout is essentially inevitable at this point and the owners seem geared up to instigate the most contentious set of CBA negotiations in […]
Braves fail to find magic touch as Postseason run ends in scuffling fashion for bats
Before this season started (and even before the Postseason started) the big question concerning this 2026 Atlanta Braves team was whether or not they would have enough pitching (particularly in the rotation) in order to find a way to be successful. 94 wins, an NL East title, a Wild Card Series win and a Divisional […]
Braves end 2026 campaign at home with NLDS exit
A strong bullpen and stellar defense have been calling cards for the Atlanta Braves all year. But slip ups on both fronts, combined with the consistently-inconsistent offense, doomed the Braves in Game 4 of the NLDS. By a final score of 4-1, the Los Angeles Dodgers eliminated the Braves at home and will advance to […]

This Tyler-squared matchup would be more fun if it weren’t elimination-flavored, no? One game at a time. Win tonight. Game Notes Pitching preview Lineups
Braves maintain calm and focus as they attempt to mount comeback in NLDS
Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss has maintained all season that his ballclub is at its best whenever their backs are against the wall. They will well and truly be up against it tonight (and again on Friday if they win Game 4) as the specter of elimination looms with the next Braves loss. Atlanta’s going […]
Michael Harris II leads off, Drake Baldwin drops to fifth as Braves try to equalize NLDS
With a win tonight, the Braves can head to Los Angeles all tied up. Walt Weiss is hoping another new batting order will provide the offensive spark to wake up an offense that needs to win to reach Game 5. Center fielder Michael Harris II will lead off for Atlanta, followed by Ronald Acuña Jr., […]
