Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs are looking to do the unthinkable; threepeat in the playoff era of college football. After becoming the first back-to-back national champions, Smart and his group face a tough road ahead without quarterback Stetson Bennett IV and almost an entire defense’s worth of players going to the NFL. However, if
The Braves had a quiet, yet very productive trade deadline. They have gotten huge contributions out of players that seemed like no-names, most notably Nicky Lopez and Pierce Johnson. By picking up lower-profile guys, the Braves didn’t sacrifice much in terms of prospect capital. Let’s check in on the guys the Braves sent off in
The Braves had, in my eyes, a successful 2023 draft. They managed to pick up College World Series star Hurston Waldrep, and they added a few more top prospects according to Baseball America and MLBPipeline. The Braves needed some help in terms of prospects, and I think they got it. Here’s where some of the
Bleacher Report’s NBA trade hypotheticals can be a bit shaky, especially when they involve the Hawks. However, I think this one is not only realistic, but very interesting. Back in June, I wrote about three blockbuster trade targets for the Hawks. Among those targets was Paul George of the Los Angeles Clippers. Here’s what I

The Braves made Owen Murphy the 20th overall pick in 2022, selecting him out of Riverside-Brookfield High School in Illinois. He has had a so-so start to his minor league career, but he’s young and showed off part of what the Braves loved about him on August 11th against the Salem Red Sox. Owen Murphy
The Braves have gotten some unlikely heroics from their bench this season, which has been a theme over the past few years. Yesterday, it was Kevin Pillar, who came up with the game-tying hit in the 9th inning off of All-Star closer David Bednar, leading to a much-needed Braves win. Pillar was a staple with
The Braves have had a revolving door next to Brandon Gaudin in the broadcast booth this season, with Jeff Francoeur taking multiple intermediate (and expected) breaks. Tom Glavine has also made several appearances, and now another Braves Hall-of-Famer will be joining the booth in the coming weeks — John Smoltz. John Smoltz will be in
The Braves have said goodbye to a lot of players that fans expected great things out of, and guys have had mixed results after leaving. Some were moved as trade casualties, and some just never panned out in Atlanta. Three of those guys may be looking for new homes following this weekend: Athletics Designate Ramon
