Unsung hero of the game: Scott Blewett.
In what was one of the wilder games of the 2025 season, the Braves mounted a comeback in the 9th inning and walked it off in the 11th by way of a 5-4 score to take three out of four from the Reds.
In the 11th, there were two runners on, two outs, and two strikes as rookie Drake Baldwin stepped in against veteran lefty Taylor Rogers. Baldwin fouled off a couple of tough pitches to stay alive and then smoke a fastball at...

Murphy catches Spencer Schwellenbach in the finale against the Reds.
After a day off on Wednesday, Sean Murphy has returned to the Braves lineup for Thursday night’s series finale against the Cincinnati Reds. Wednesday was just a normal day of rest for Murphy to get Drake Baldwin a few reps, who promptly hit the first pulled home run of his career.
The rest of Atlanta’s lineup largely remains the same with Alex Verdugo leading off, Eli White batting ahead...

Schwellenbach looks to get back on track after a shaky few weeks.
The Braves and Reds close out their four-game series on Thursday evening at Truist Park with a fascinating pitching matchup of two starters who got off to terrific starts in 2025 but have been up against it in recent weeks.
Spencer Schwellenbach is coming off one of the worst outings of his career against the Dodgers, surrendering six runs over just 3.2 innings. A crazy stat: over his first 21...

DLS is slowly turning into Slider-and-changeup-man, and may be starting to ascend the bullpen hierarchy
The Atlanta Braves bullpen underwent a lot of turnover from last season to 2025. So it was going to have to take some time everything to shake out and for roles to be nailed down. Coming into the season, Enyel De Los Santos looked like every other random not-quite-replacement-level reliever, so I assumed that he wouldn’t really have a role outside of...

Workinger boosted his season OPS to .969 with his performance

Serious and/or wrong answers only. (Yes, that’s an oxymoron.)
It’s one thing when arguably the worst position player on your roster comes up in a key situation that could potentially end the game and saddle you with a loss. It’s another thing when that player is not scheduled to appear in that spot, only for the team to insert him there anyway.
That happened last night, where Eddie Rosario inexplicably (to me) pinch-hit for Eli White in the...

Atlanta Braves news and notes from Wednesday
Drake Baldwin has lived up to the hype, even in a limited role as a rookie. He’s only had 65 plate appearances, so we are still very early, but after a great night Wednesday, he boasts a 122 wRC+ and his plate appearances have been of an impressive quality for a young player (or any player). His defense against baserunners hasn’t been great so far, although it’s fair to attribute some of...
