• Braves News: All-Star Voting First Update, Ronald Acuna Jr., Mets Series, More

Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images Biggest series of the year begins on Tuesday. On Monday, the first update for the 2025 All-Star Voting was released. For the Braves, currently, only Ronald Acuna Jr. is among the top getters at his respective position among Braves regulars. It is a bit surprising that there are not more Braves listed, especially Matt Olson at first base. Hopefully, as we get cl...2025

• Battery Power Braves Player of the Week: Ronald Acuña, Jr.

Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images He’s a superstar for a reason, folks. The Atlanta Braves showed much-needed improvement this week by winning four-out-of-six games after a win less week last week. There’s a tinge of disappointment to that outcome given that the Braves dropped the final game of the series against a Colorado Rockies team that is historically inept. The worst team in baseball look...2025

• Rockies 10, Braves 1: A weird, blowout win is still a win

Dale Zanine-Imagn Images Braxton Fulford recorded five RBI en route to the Rockies’ victory It was a weird game in Atlanta, and that might be putting it lightly. The Colorado Rockies scored before recording a hit and also struck out 16 times against the Atlanta Braves but bludgeoned them 10-1.

• Rockies celebrating Father’s Day with daddy, Ronnie

Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images He’s 5-for-9 with a double and homer in the series. So Ronald Acuna is pretty good. Since coming from a second ACL injury and a year-long layoff, he is hitting .387/.471/.707, which is good enough for a 225 wRC+. The funny thing about this is that he’s still 30 points below where Aaron Judge is for the season, but I digress. In a 19-game stretch, Ro...2025
