The Braves haven’t just been bad offensively. They have been the worst offense in baseball for quite some time now. Following an off-day, the Braves had the opportunity to flush the last few series out of their system and start over. That’s the great part about the 162-game season. Max Fried was set to toe
For as long as I can remember, the Braves have been searching for answers at the back of their rotation. This year is better than most, as four pitchers have really established themselves as reliable starters in Max Fried, Chris Sale, Charlie Morton, and Reynaldo Lopez.

The Nationals (twice), Athletics, and Pirates didn’t exactly throw a bunch of aces at the Braves, but it didn’t matter who was on the mound. The Atlanta lineup looked like they all belonged in Gwinnett. This is not a
The Athletic recently polled over 100 players on a variety of topics, and the Atlanta Braves as well as some of their players came out looking very nicely. Most notably, the pool of players was asked who they’d want to play for most if state taxes and rosters were not a factor. To which 12.7%
As the trade deadline approaches, I continue to breakdown every single trade candidate possible for the Atlanta Braves, beginning with teams that will undoubtedly be sellers over the next couple of months.

Due to a slew of injuries to key pieces and an offense that refuses to hit, the MLB trade deadline has now become the topic of discussion surrounding the Braves. They must add offensively if they want to contend this season, and they could use another starter to round out the rotation. A nine game
