Out of all of the trades and signings Alex Anthopoulos has been praised for, the Braves trade for Chris Sale has to be the best of the bunch, sending top prospect Vaughn Grissom to Boston in exchange for Sale. Some criticized the trade, pointing out Sale’s extensive injury history, but the veteran entered the offseason
With Braves Spring Training underway, there aren’t too many new faces for fans to learn, but there is one notable big name to familiarize yourself with — Jurickson Profar. The former top prospect is coming off the best season of his career and inked a three-year, $42 million deal to join Atlanta. It wasn’t exactly
Raheem Morris is shaking up Atlanta’s coaching staff. The Falcons have promoted quarterbacks coach T.J. Yates to pass game coordinator and D.J. Williams to quarterbacks coach, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter. Yates has worked his way up the chain of command since entering the coaching ranks of the NFL, beginning in 2019 as an offensive
A couple of months out from the NFL Draft, your best guess is as good as mine as to who the Falcons draft with their first-round pick. It’s hard enough to mock the 15th pick the night before, let alone two months. But one thing most expect is that Terry Fontenot will do something he’s

Braves Spring Training kicks off today, but there are still concerns about Atlanta’s pitching staff. Following the Jurickson Profar signing, which felt like a necessity, fans were in wait-and-see mode, anxious for another Alex Anthopoulos move. The rotation could use another reliable arm, which could kill two birds with one stone. If the Braves acquired
North Port, Florida is buzzing as Braves baseball returns, with a lot of eyes on Atlanta’s two biggest stars returning from injury — Ronald Acuna Jr. and Spencer Strider. Strider has been throwing bullpen sessions, with Brian Snitker saying, “The ball is coming out really good.” Acuna, on the other hand, seems to be a
This morning on MLB Network, Braves skipper Brian Snitker provided an encouraging update on Spencer Strider as Spring Training kicks off in North Port, Florida. “The ball is coming out really good,” Snit said. Braves RHP Spencer Strider (April 2024 UCL repair) threw a side session yesterday, as he continues his rehab progression. "The ball's
Only a couple hundred days until the NFL is back, but Vegas never sleeps. Super Bowl LIX is over, with the Eagles crowned as champions, and the odds for Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California on Feb. 8, 2026 have already been released, but it doesn’t paint the Falcons in a good
With pitchers and catchers reporting tomorrow, Braves baseball is almost back, but Alex Anthopoulos isn’t done tweaking the roster. I expect Atlanta’s GM to add at least one more notable arm to the pitching staff, with the bullpen being more in need of an addition, but there were a few smaller moves made today. According
