Prior to the season, everyone was concerned about who was going to be the Braves fifth starter. Well, that hasn’t turned out to be much of an issue with Reynaldo Lopez in the fold. The long-time relief pitcher for the Chicago White Sox won the job out of camp and has run so far away
The Braves have been without three All-Stars, including their ace, for most of the season, and the top of their lineup, which features three MVP candidates, has yet to really find its footing. Despite that, they still hold MLB’s best record at 17-6 with a three-game lead in the NL East, a testament to the
The Falcons have had a dire need for a reliable sack artist for over a decade. It’s been a position the organization just hasn’t been able to get right, whether it be through the draft or free agency. To make matters worse, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot hasn’t really even taken any significant swings to

The solution to fixing Max Fried’s early season struggles turns out to be a simple one. Just have him face the Marlins every time he toes the rubber. In Fried’s first start against the Fish, he went into the seventh inning and only allowed one run on four hits. Against everyone else, he’s yet to
The Falcons have shuffled up the QB room from last year considerably. Most notably, Kirk Cousins was brought in after signing a lucrative four-year deal that came with $100 million in guarantees, and Desmond Ridder was shipped out in a trade with the Cardinals for Rondale Moore.

Despite all of the rumors and reports, nobody, not even the Falcons, is quite sure who will be joining the organization during the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday.
