On a yearly basis, award races in MLB fluctuate between being extremely competitive to landslides. This season’s Rookie of the Year race in the National League between Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto and Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. is extremely compelling.There are intriguing secondary candidates like San Francisco Giants pitcher Dereck Rodriguez and Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson. Yet neither player is in the same stratosphere as Soto and Acuña...

Perhaps, at last, leaguewide recognition?
It’s mid-August. The season’s not nearly over, but the end-of-season picture is becoming somewhat clearer. That, and Nolan Arenado is in town. So, that got me thinking — which Braves are going to come down with hardware this year?
You tell me, and tell me why. Freddie Freeman seems like a good case to get MVP votes, and the Rookie of the Year debate has been going on. But, those aren’t the only awards. What will it take for a Braves pitcher...

— FOX Sports: Braves (@FOXSportsBraves) August...Recapping the series opener.
Despite the abject weirdness associated with Wednesday evening’s game, the Atlanta Braves entered a weekend set with the Colorado Rockies riding a five-game winning streak. To make things even more interesting, Atlanta’s chief competition in the NL East lost a game by 20 (yes, 20) runs on Thursday afternoon, setting the stage for what could be a “grand slam” day for Brian Snitker and company. That rosy outlook did not come to fruition, however, as the...
Apparently the punishment for trying to hitting a guy with a fastball is that you get a couple extra days of rest.
Well, so much for prioritizing player safety and the growth of the sport amongst younger fans.
As we all know by now, Jose Urena took it upon himself to hit Ronald Acuna Jr. with a pitch in the final game of the Braves’ four game set against the Marlins. Benches cleared twice in that first inning and it resulted in Braves manager Brian Snitker as well as Urena getting tossed...

PREVIEW | LINEUPS
Major League Baseball announced Thursday that Marlins righty Jose Urena has received a six-game suspension for plunking Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna in Wednesday night's game. Atlanta first base coach Eric Young Sr. was also hit with a one-game ban for his role in the ensuing melee.Depending upon one’s point of view — and everyone seems to have one on this particular subject — the suspension will likely seem appropriate or gallingly short. This is a rather typical MLB punishment...
MLB did not take long to suspend Jose Ureña for hitting Ronald Acuña Jr. in Wednesday’s game, but the suspension was not enough.MLB announced on Thursday that Ureña has been suspended six games for his actions. Braves first base coach Eric Young Sr. was also suspended a game for his role in the fight. MLB should be credited for acting swiftly, but the punishment is too weak.Ureña threw at a hot hitter with intent because he was too scared to face him. MLB needs to protect its players...
Many legitimate things have been said about Jose Urena since hitting Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna last night. How about that he may have aided in a postseason berth? Gutless. A garbage pitcher. A Bush league move.

Thursday’s lineups are here.
Wednesday night’s fireworks thankfully did not create a long-term injury for Ronald Acuña and the Atlanta Braves will open a four-game set against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday evening. While most expected the mega-talented youngster to rest for at least one game, the Braves announced the lineup for the series opener and Acuña was in his familiar lead-off spot.
Five wins in a row. Let's make it six.#ChopOn https://t.co/oXSGGTpHnP...
Good news, Atlanta Braves fans. It looks like Ronald Acuña Jr. is going to be okay.Wednesday night, Miami Marlins pitcher José Ureña started his evening with the fastest pitch he’s ever thrown to open a game (97.5 mph). Unfortunately, he did so with every intention of drilling the 20-year-old Acuña. The very next inning, Acuña would leave the game due to forearm/elbow tightness.Mission accomplished, we guess?But according to ESPN, Acuña looks to have avoided any serious damage. The...

A new series begins.
After the general madness of Wednesday evening, the Atlanta Braves will take the field again on Thursday night and, this time, a different team will be in the opposing dugout. The Colorado Rockies arrive in Atlanta to begin a four-game series and the home team will place a five-game winning streak on the line.
The Braves are, unequivocally, playing some of their best baseball of the season at the moment and that provides optimism. With that said, it is likely reasonable...
