Braves News

The Atlanta Braves are in a worrying tailspin, dropping five of their last seven games, including a dispiriting 2-5 loss to the Padres that continues a grim streak in California, where they have now lost nine straight at Petco Park. With their once-commanding lead in the division shrinking, the Braves need a spark, and fast, as the All-Star break approaches. It's a bittersweet moment as five Braves have advanced in All-Star voting, shining a light on individual talent amid a collective struggle. Meanwhile, whispers around Hurston Waldrep’s potential return from injury could be the key to stabilizing a rotation that’s shown glaring weaknesses. If the Braves want to regain momentum, a mix of urgency and strategy in the upcoming trade deadline is essential.

A spark (and maybe some major acquisitions ahead of the trade deadline) is needed at the moment so that […]

Braves at Padres series recap: Consistently calamitous in California
Death. Taxes. This current era of the Atlanta Braves having nearly nothing go right for them whenever they’re in California. Petco Park has especially turned into a house of horrors for the Braves, as Atlanta has now lost nine straight games on the road against the Padres (if you’re including the 2024 NL Wild Card […]

The Atlanta Braves are probably having some buyer's remorse when it comes to Ha-Seong Kim, and there isn't an easy solution.

The Atlanta Braves have a very obvious weakness in their rotation at the moment. Among their internal options, Hurston Waldrep can do the most good.
