When the Braves traded for Sean Murphy–understandably–some fans were skeptical. I was a little myself; not that I didn’t think Murphy was a fantastic player, but because the Braves already had two All-Star catchers on their roster in Travis d’Arnaud and William Contreras. It seemed like the potential upgrade from Contreras to Murphy would be minimal, and
There aren’t many better rivalries in the NFL better than the Falcons and Saints, thanks in large part due to Matt Ryan and Drew Brees, who each helped their respective franchise to several playoff appearances for over a decade. Those days are now in the past, but things are looking up for both of these
The situation surrounding the injuries to Max Fried and Kyle Wright is not good. They are both expected to miss at least a couple of months, and it’s possible neither will return before the All-Star break. On the flip side, it seems–for now–the Braves have avoided the worst case scenario, which would have been season-ending
The Braves will be out two of their top starters for a substantial period. Yesterday, Max Fried was added to the 15-day IL with a forearm strain. The good news is an MRI showed no damage to his UCL, which means he likely won’t have to undergo Tommy John surgery. The worst case scenario was
Despite some melancholy news coming to light yesterday surrounding Max Fried, the Braves took care of business on the diamond, racking up nine runs en route to their 25th win of the season. They are now the first NL team to reach that mark and are well on their way to eclipsing their 2021 win
The Falcons ruffled some feathers with their selection of Bijan Robinson in the first round of this year’s draft, leading to some wild takes. Some believe Atlanta continues to prove their incompetence by taking a running back in the top 10 when they already had a 1,000 yard rookie rusher on the roster. Others see
The Rays have the best record in baseball, and a big part of that is because of their pitching staff, which I would call the best in the league from top to bottom. They have an embarrassment of riches, and their recent decision to designate Chase Anderson for assignment shows just how many arms they
The story of the day and the coming weeks will likely surround Max Fried, who was placed on the 15-day IL with a forearm strain. That’s never what you want to hear about your star pitcher, as forearm strains can often be the result of UCL injuries, which can require Tommy John surgery. The good news
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Marcell Ozuna has plead no contest to the DUI he was charged with last August.

The Braves received more devastating injury news today, as Max Fried will hit the IL with a forearm strain. Thankfully, at least for now, reports suggest he avoided any damage to his UCL, so Tommy John isn’t on the table right now. With that being said, this is expected to be a lengthy absence for
