After a stellar start to the season, the Braves pitching staff has been holding on for dear life for a couple of months now. That said, I think it’s fair to say pitching coach Jeremy Hefner is squeezing out about as much as he possibly can with what he’s been given.
Well, if the Padres series wasn’t dramatic enough for you then hopefully you got enough of it during this series between the Atlanta Braves and Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards!
The Braves squeaked by with yet another one-run win over the Orioles that had a little bit of everything. The game should have been signed, sealed, and delivered in the ninth, but Ozzie Albies let a groundball go right through his legs, allowing the tying run to score and sending the game to extras.
Austin Riley doubled in the go-ahead run in the 11th inning and the Atlanta Braves beat the host Baltimore Orioles 3-2 on Sunday afternoon in the rubber game of the three-game series.
In a game where (according to FanGraphs) the Atlanta Braves had a 7.4 percent chance of winning in the bottom of the tenth inning, Atlanta somehow ended up victorious after Austin Riley’s go-ahead RBI double in the 11th inning held up and brought us to the final score of 3-2.
The MLB Draft doesn’t get the same attention as the NFL Draft…or the NBA Draft…or even the NHL Draft. There’s the element of a stay in a farm system, the general lack of immediate impact for MLB draft picks, and the fact that it’s tougher for one MLB player to turn a franchise’s fortunes around.
Australia's Lucas Herbert sweeps to victory on the final day of the LIV UK event in Staffordshire, finishing six strokes clear of England's Tyrrell Hatton.
Bryson DeChambeau bemoaned his lack of luck over the final three days at LIV Golf UK after finishing nine shots adrift of Lucas Herbert at JCB. DeChambeau was able to gain ground on Jon Rahm at the top of the individual standings on LIV this season, with the two-time US Open champion finishing third in Staffordshire.
Ronald Acuna Jr. is not walking through the doors at Truist Park just yet, but Monday looks like the day. The Atlanta Braves right fielder, out since June 10 with a left hamstring strain, is expected to finish his rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett through the end of Atlanta's series against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday.
The chief priority for the Braves leading up to the trade deadline is finding a legitimate frontline arm to sit behind Chris Sale. That’s not changing, and it’s not going to be cheap.
Christmas in July continues as we roll into one of our favorite series of the year – our Top 30, midseason addition. After a strong draft in 2025, followed by adding a lot of good talent from the international free agency period, we now take a look at the state of the franchise following the 2026 MLB draft.
Sometimes you’ve just got to show faith in the youngsters, right? Indeed, it appears as if former Braves shortstop and current Braves manager Walt Weiss has decided to stick with current rookie Braves shortstop Jim Jarvis the day after he made a couple of crucial errors in the field during Saturday night’s walk-off loss to the Orioles.
Even the most successful regular-season teams in Major League Baseball have failed to win it all. Here's our list of 20 such clubs that fall into that category.
Relax. This is not a scathing post about the Braves’ trade deadline plans. The trade deadline won’t be for another eight days. This is more about my curiosity about where the Braves have gotten their bullpen help to date.
There is a reality that is coming. It may not be after this season, but it's ahead. That reality is that the Atlanta Braves will need a new closer soon.
The vibes around the Atlanta Braves are a lot different than they were just a couple of weeks ago. Three straight wins and six wins in eight games have pushed their lead over the Phillies back to 5.5 games, and the sheer number of potential upgrades coming to this roster over the next month or so is honestly a little alarming.
If you were a new Braves fan who just started watching the club about a month ago and heard about Atlanta’s star bullpen, you’d probably be wondering what in the hell everybody else was watching before you joined the bandwagon.
The Atlanta Braves have found ways to boost their stock recently, even as they wait for one of their key players to return to the lineup. The Braves will visit the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday night in the second game of a three-game series.
The Braves announced that right-hander Elieser Hernandez has been designated for assignment, and left-hander Connor Thomas was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett in the corresponding move. Thomas was already on the 40-man roster, so Atlanta now has two open spots on its 40-man.
Matt Olson hammered a three-run home run with two outs in the 10th inning and the visiting Atlanta Braves held on to beat the Baltimore Orioles 7-6 on Friday night in the opener of a three-game series.

In MLB history, 31 players have earned both Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player honors over the course of their careers. How many can you name in five minutes?
The Braves have spent the bulk of the season in first place in the National League East, but a once-comfortable lead has dwindled to three games over the resurgent Phillies (six and eight over the upstart Marlins and Nationals, respectively).
The injury bug has seemed to make a living in the Atlanta Braves clubhouse this season. It has bitten the lineup, starting rotation and bullpen all so far this season for the Atlanta.
