Three Cuts: Tigers get to Medlen as Braves fall again

Taking three cuts following the Braves' 7-4 loss to the Tigers at Comerica Park on Saturday. 1. Has Medlen come back down to earth? Kris Medlen got off to an impressively odd start, scoring his first out before pitching a strike. He walked Austin Jackson on four pitches before picking him off. Medlen now has 12 pickoffs since the start of last season, a figure only bested...

Three Cuts: Medlen-led Braves win 5th straight

Here are three things we learned from Atlanta's 3-2 victory over Miami on Tuesday, before a subdued crowd at Marlins Park: 1. Just wait until Kris Medlen recaptures that late-season mojo of last year From a distance, Medlen's cumulative numbers after two starts (1-1, 1.50 ERA) look superb. But he has yet to find a true groove with strikeout-to-walk ratio (45) or WHIP ...

Braves Starter Kris Medlen Is Hilariously Thrilled to Learn His Unborn Child's Gender

Braves starting pitcher Kris Medlen had a good day on Tuesday. That was the day that the 26-year-old right-hander was named the National League's pitcher of the month, but that wasn't all. It was also the day that Medlen found out that his unborn child was going to be a boy, which he had apparently been rooting for. The way that he broke the news to his Twitter followers...

Braves counting on Medlen in the bullpen

I have to admit. I wasn't impressed with Kris Medlen the first time I saw him pitch. To be fair, it was his big league debut, so he deserved to be little nervous. So on May 21, 2009, Medlen walked to the Turner Field mound for the first time. The Colorado Rockies were in the opposing dugout and Medlen had been called on to replace starter Jo-Jo Reyes. Remember him? Reyes...
