Checking on the Guys Who Left After 2024 A number of the 57 players used in 2024 found new homes this year. Some didn't. Some came back...eventually

Today, I wanted to check on the 2024 Braves who left the organization. Spoiler alert - a few came back. Even more of a spoiler alert - it wasn't their first time coming back, either. Did you know Jimmy Herget had a big year?

Offseason Preview 2/5 - The Middle Infield Ozzie Albies and Ha-Seong Kim Both Have Options and Questions

Continuing my offseason preview series with the middle infield. There are questions at both positions though both Ozzie Albies and Ha-Seong Kim could be back for the Braves.

Still shouldn't have been traded, Schuerholz!

My daughters are annoyed with Erin Andrews. We're watching 99 To Beat and she keeps comparing everything to football. They yell every time.

Thanks Steelers for George Pickens.

Ryan Flournoy coming out party! @voiceofthestar.bsky.social predicted this.

Too soon.

Should really be relegated.

DOB and Bowman would still be talking about it when spring training opened.

Absolutely. Offense needs a real wakeup. Hasn't had a comple game effort all season.

Ugly ugly win. Almost the most a win could feel like a loss.

So, Penn St is 0-2 since they gave out all those Freedom shirts.

Huh.

Is Texas back?

Congratulations! Also, Georgia State is going down. 😁

Me roughly 9069 times this year watching the Braves.

Already looking forward to Washington St.'s trip to JMU in November.

Kinda funny how the Cougars are taking two trips to Virginia this year.

Thanks for your kind words. I was incredibly hopeful for him - especially in 2024 when he had those two good runs. I do hope he finds a good place for 2026 where things can click - preferably not in the NL East.

I, too, will not be watching ESPN's hockey coverage and I will not apologize for that.

The Kelenic Fiasco After two years, the Braves wash their hands

I look back at the calculated risk that was the Jarred Kelenic Fiasco as it comes to an end. Hey, at least we got David Fletcher - Minor League Knuckleballer, right? #Braves

Obligatory

I'm inclined to give this a hell yeah.

Georgia State playing at their home field, Center Parc Credit Union Stadium. It was formerly Turner Field.

JMU playing at the former Turner Field this Saturday.

Offseason Preview 1/5 - Catcher and Corner IF The Braves seem set, but questions still remain

First article in forever! I look at where the Braves stand at catcher, first base, and third base. Drake Baldwin's good, Sean Murphy could be good, Matt Olson's just grand, Austin Riley needs to stay healthy, and the Braves should consider a utility player who isn't a better pitcher than hitter.

Not to say I didn't have my issues with Snit both before and after this, but I've seen managers not fight for their guys. Snit wasn't that type of manager. He might criticize a player, but between the lines, he had their back.
