Going for the series win against the Angels

It’s time to tune in to watch the Atlanta Braves either clinch this much-needed series win, or fall once again in a winnable game against the Los Angeles Angels.

Sitting now at eight games below .500, ranking fourth in the division and just three games behind the Nationals, there seems to be a struggle getting back up to and past that halfway threshold.

Yesterday, could’ve been the...

Report: Spencer Schwellenbach Sidelined Until September

The Atlanta Braves’ rotation took another blow this week as Spencer Schwellenbach hit the IL with a fractured elbow. The 25-year-old righty, who was emerging as an All-Star candidate, will be shut down from throwing for the next four weeks, with a potential return to the mound not expected until September.

Offense has woken up…but will they arrive in today’s finale?

That’s right.

As the title stated, there are no new changes in today’s Atlanta Braves lineup from yesterday’s.

The offense came alive late, but in a way, on time in the sixth inning after a three-run homer from Sean Murphy to start it off.
Murphy has been electric these last few games and is...

Our friends over at FanGraphs recently took a look at the top defensive teams in all of baseball right now and as it turns out, the Braves are at least excelling in one department.

The All-Star break is right around the corner and to let you know just how “well” things are going for the Atlanta Braves here in 2025, Ivan The Great is out here writing Braves-related Greek comedies and two high-quality starting pitchers are...

Latest injury update on Joe Jimenez

Outside of Raisel Iglesias, the Braves relief core has mostly come along very nicely this season, and with Daysbel Hernandez returning last night, it could be one of the few positive aspects of the club moving forward.

Can the Braves clinch the Angels Series with Elder on the Mound?

After the array of news that seemed to dog-pile on the team over the past few days, a clutch win to end game two in the series, and a three-game losing streak at home was a definite must.

The bottom of the sixth is when yesterday’s game took a turn in the right direction for the Atlanta Braves after a seven-run inning. Now, the question is... can they finish the job?

The good news is, the offense seemed to step up after...

Turns out, it’s a Greek comedy. Sort of.

This is not your usual Battery Power fare. This is not your usual “post from Ivan” fare, either. It does concern the Atlanta Braves but not in a way that you’re used to seeing from this particular website.

Some of you will hate this. Most of you, probably. You’ll be like, “Why did I click on this? The season is already bad enough, and now I’ve wasted 20 seconds of my summer...

Braves have three potential impact relievers featured in Gwinnett

With now four of the Braves top starters on the IL for the foreseeable future and the offense performing like a bottom-five lineup, Atlanta’s bullpen feels like the club’s biggest strength, something nobody could have predicted at the beginning of the season.

Braves options to replace Spencer Schwellenbach

Spencer Schwellenbach going down with a fractured elbow feels like one too many injuries for the Braves to overcome. The club is now down its 1-4 starters from Opening Day, and it feels like they don’t really have anywhere else to turn for a reliable starting pitcher.

Blake Burkhalter looks to continue his strong season and extend the Clingstones winning streak to 3.

The Stripers scored 2 late to win last night and now turn to Nathan Wiles to keep it going for the Stripers. Wiles was okay in his last start (5IP 4H 3ER 4BB 7K, 2 HR) but has been solid throughout the season for...

Spencer Strider Is Rounding Back Into Form

It’s no secret that the 2025 season has been a tough one for the Atlanta Braves. From a sluggish start, to key injuries, to underperforming stars, even the optimist in me has started to waver on this team’s playoff hopes.

Braves are now down their top four Opening Day starters

The hits just keep on coming, except offensively, where they’ve been replaced with attempts to draw walks

It’s the day before a holiday, so that’s kind of like a Friday? Anyway, no real discussion of this prompt. Just, have at it. The season has sucked, you know why it’s sucked, but... what’s the worst part of it sucking?
