• 5 things for Braves fans to get excited about for 2025

Photo by Casey Sykes/Getty Images Which aspects of Braves baseball are you looking forward to most this year? Two things can be true at once. The Atlanta Braves had a very disappointing offseason that included a shocking and, in my opinion, egregious decision to duck under the luxury tax instead of adding around their core in the middle of a World Series window. But, despite this, the Bra...2025

• 2024 Braves Season In Review: Forrest Wall

Photo by Casey Sykes/Getty Images Wall broke camp with Atlanta but only saw action in a baker’s dozen worth of games with the Braves When Forrest Wall was called up by the Atlanta Braves at the end of the 2023 season, the speedy outfielder put up a comical line in with a .569 wOBA (.224 xwOBA) to go with five stolen bases and 0.4 fWAR in just 15 PAs. With a heaping helping of speed, the 28...2024

Photo by Casey Sykes/Getty Images The Braves’ midseason adjustment of their backup infield option came up... Short. The Braves didn’t head into the 2024 season with Zack Short in their plans. Though they probably could’ve acquired him for a pittance, they had both Luis Guillorme and David Fletcher in-house for backup infielder duties. But, about five weeks into the season, Fletcher was ban...2024

The other team had two homers. You can pretty much figure it out from there: yes, it’s 2024, but two homers are hard to overcome when you hit none, and so the Bra...2024
