Over a year ago, it was reported that the Braves were the favorites to land a top international prospect in the 2024 cycle, Jose Perdomo. The Atlanta Braves are the favorites to sign Venezuelan SS/3B Jose Perdomo during the 2024 international signing period. Big power & bat speed. Plus throwing arm. Solid athlete. Expected to
I think I speak for everyone when I say this has been one of the most frustrating Falcons seasons in recent memory. After taking dead money on the chin as the team aimed to get out of cap hell, this was supposed to be the year where the on-field results were improved. The Falcons invested
This is what has become known as the Alex Anthopoulos special. Every offseason, the Braves GM makes a blockbuster trade, and every time, a contract extension follows. He did it two offseasons ago with Matt Olson. Last year, it was Sean Murphy, and this year, it is Chris Sale, who inked a two-year, $38 million
Atlanta Braves fans have been begging for a splash all offseason, and they finally got their wish right before the new year when Alex Anthopoulos dealt Vaughn Grissom to the Red Sox for Chris Sale. Sale has battled a slew of injuries over the last three years, which has limited him to just 31 starts
The Braves blew off some fireworks to end 2023, acquiring Chris Sale from the Red Sox in return for Vaughn Grissom. It’s a trade most Braves fans seem to be fond of. Sale’s injury history is a concern, but Boston is paying most of his 2024 salary and the rest of the money is deferred.
The Braves haven’t been the busiest team in free agency, but it isn’t for a lack of spending. Alex Anthopoulos has been trading players like a madman, taking on a lot of money to put the Braves in the best position to win another World Series this year. This has allowed Atlanta to hang onto
The Braves made their biggest splash of the offseason over the holidays, swinging a trade for seven-time All-Star Chris Sale before the new year. In return, Boston received Vaughn Grissom, a relatively stiff price to pay for a pitcher who has totaled just 31 starts and 151.0 innings since the start of the 2021 campaign.
Calais Campbell is 37 years old and in his 16th NFL season, but you wouldn’t know it by his performance on the field this past Sunday. The veteran recorded 1.5 sacks, a tackle for loss, and three quarterback hits. He’s now up to 5.5 sacks on the season with two games remaining and has been
The first draft class of Terry Fontenot’s tenure is one he would probably like to forget. Of the nine players he selected, only two of them are currently consistent contributors — Drew Dalman and Kyle Pitts — and Pitts, who was the fourth overall pick in the draft, might not even get a second contract.
The Falcons have had a QB dilemma on their hands for each of the last three offseasons, which is a primary reason why fans are upset with the current regime, who have only invested a third-round pick in the position since taking over. In the minds of many, that’s a fireable offense. However, it must
