Michael Harris II prepares for first playoff game

Michael Harris II and Michael Cloud Jr. grew up in the same suburban Atlanta neighborhood. Cloud died in an auto accident in July 2016. Michael Harris was drafted by the Braves in third round of 2019 MLB Draft. He played in 197 games at the Minor League level and is a favorite to win the National League Rookie of the Year Award. He will wear a cloud necklace and a bracelet with Cloud's name on it when the Atlanta Braves welcome either the Cardinals or Phillies to Truist Park to begin a National league Division Series on Tuesday. The necklace is the one Cloud wore throughout the regular season.

2023 Atlanta Braves Season in Review: Michael Tonkin

2023 Atlanta Braves Season in Review: Michael Tonkin

What an idiot. As you know by now that…

2023 MLB Season Preview: Texas Rangers

The Atlanta Braves will be facing the Texas Rangers again in 2023, so let's take a look at the Rangers, shall we? The Texas Rangers were about on par with what PECOTA had them projected for in 2022 - a 70-92 projection, and a 68-94 final record, good for fourth place in their division. They undershot other projections, like the Fangraphs one…

Atlanta Braves: Bold predictions for the 2023 season

While we can reasonably expect the Atlanta Braves, on the whole, to be a very good baseball team in 2023, it would be foolish to try to predict exactly what happens next season. No one saw Michael Harris II or Vaughn Grissom having the impact they did last year nor did we expect Ozzie Albies and Ronald Acuna Jr. to struggle as much as they did with…
