Atlanta, GA

4:58pm: The Braves announced this afternoon that X-Rays on Albies’s wrist revealed a fracture in his left wrist. He’s expected to miss approximately eight weeks. Atlanta is “expected” to select Alvarez’s contract tomorrow to replace Albies on the roster, according to MLB.com’s Mark Bowman. Bowman suggests that the youngster will play second base despite Alvarez’s lack of experience at the keystone, leaving Arcia as the club’s everyday shortstop.

Atlanta Braves general manager Alex Anthopoulos is bound to make waves this trade deadline season. He's going to be very active as he looks to add a ton of talent to the Braves major league roster to try to boost his team to the top of the National League. The season feels eerily similar to the 2021 season in which Ronald Acuña Jr. went down with a knee injury, Anthopoulos worked some deadline magic and the Braves won the World Series.

Alex Anthopoulos was willing to go further than he ever has for exciting Braves draft pick

The Atlanta Braves got their guy in the first round in Cam Caminiti, and despite the widely-held belief being that he would take an over-slot signing bonus, according to Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline he is coming in right at the slot value, leaving money for the Braves to go after some major prep talent from later rounds.

During the All-Star break, the Braves made a roster move, outrighting Brian Anderson to Triple-A Gwinnett, leaving many to speculate what the corresponding move would be.

Braves make corresponding roster move ahead of Cardinals series

The Atlanta Braves have reinstated outfielder Ramón Laureano from the injured list this morning. He had been on the 10-day IL since July 10 due to an oblique injury. Laureano was signed by Atlanta to a minor league contract on May 29, 2024 and recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on June 15. He appeared in 11 games with the Braves before an issue with his back - and then oblique - caused him to miss time. He last appeared in a game on June 26.

UPDATE (6:06 p.m. ET): The Braves announced that after undergoing x-rays, Ozzie Albies suffered a left wrist fracture, and is now sidelined for approximately eight weeks. The Atlanta Braves already had a lengthy list of injuries that they've had to deal with this season and now it only gets longer with Ozzie Albies headed to the IL with a wrist injury. Brian Snitker's comments made it seem as if Albies' absence will be longer than the minimum of 10 days he'd spend on the IL.

Ozzie Albies doomsday injury shouldn't force Braves hand with flashy trade partner

If I had told Braves fans that Bryce Elder would strike out 9 with only 1 walk over 5.0 innings in his Saturday spot start, I would wager that nearly every one would have taken that without knowing anything else. Elder, of course, struggles to accumulate strikeouts and generally finds his success when he is avoiding walks. However, he gave up 6 earned runs and 2 home runs in that 5.0 inning outing. I’m still going to call it promising, as the batted ball luck is the least consistent part of the equation, but it was quite a strange start for Elder. The biggest thing for Bryce is keeping the walks down. I am quite skeptical that he will suddenly become a real strikeout pitcher, but if he can consistently keep walking batters at a rate similarly to Saturday, he can finally take that step to being a consistently playable major league pitcher.

It’s a new-look Augusta GreenJackets lineup, as they have completely rebuilt the roster with the promotions of top Atlanta Braves prospects Luis Guanipa, John Gil, and Junior Garcia.

In Rome Mitch Farris had a terrific day, but the game ended in disappointment at the Emperors were no hit.

The Atlanta Braves came charging from the gate as soon as the season started, but as the injuries mounted, the Braves began to fade. To make matters worse, players that have been great in the past are now underperforming. While it seems like the Braves have figured some things out like filling the fifth spot in the rotation with Spencer Schwellenbach, there are a few question marks remaining.
