There might not be a team in The Association that stands more to gain or lose this offseason than the Atlanta Hawks. It begins with the #1 overall pick in the NBA Draft. The Hawks pulled a rabbit out of their hat when it was announced they won the NBA Draft Lottery about a month
The Braves offense looked like the historic group they were a year ago over the weekend against the Rays, as Atlanta took two of three and finally made up some ground on the Phillies in the division. It was the kind of series we’ve all been anxiously awaiting for the better part of two months,
The Braves offense, or lack thereof, has been the talk of the last month. A historic group from a year ago returning almost the exact same guys, the Braves entered this past weekend the worst in terms of producing runs over the last six weeks, but perhaps the Tampa Bay Rays will prove to be
When the Braves announced they would be trying Reynaldo Lopez out as a starter soon after signing him to a three-year, $30 million contract, the initial reaction was something along the lines of this is going to be a fun experiment that probably won’t be permanent. Nobody could have expected what has transpired with the
The Braves 2024 campaign hasn’t gotten off to the start anyone imagined after winning 104 games last season, but it’s far from a lost season.

Kudos to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk — a notorious Vikings fan — for convincing a large part of the NFL world that the Falcons would be severely punished for their role in tampering with Kirk Cousins ahead of free agency.

The Braves must add at the trade deadline. They don’t have a choice if they want any chance at winning the World Series this year after losing their two best players — Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider — for the season. It’s not a matter of if they will add, it is who will
When discussing this year’s Braves team, it’s impossible not to think back to 2021. Atlanta is struggling, sitting well back of the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East. Nothing seems to be going right, and now they’ve lost Ronald Acuña Jr. for the season with a torn ACL. The mountain appears too great to overcome,
Over the last week or so, I’ve begun taking a deep dive into potential trade targets and discussing the Braves needs ahead of the trade deadline. Once one of the most complete teams on paper to begin the season, injuries and regression have Atlanta’s offense looking more like the Miami Marlins. This is not a
There must be something in the water the Braves front office is drinking because they are handing out promotions like candy on the farm. We’ve seen a few of them in Atlanta recently. Spencer Schwellenbach made his MLB debut a couple of weeks ago, and Hurston Waldrep just made his this past Sunday. Yesterday, the
