Here's a wild Austin Riley stat that shows how rough his season's going: Though he has more than twice as many homers as Mauricio Dubon, his OPS (.667) is 53 points lower than Dubon's (.720). League average OPS is .706.

@BrandonGaudin Tell Francoeur there was a game in 1999 when Eddie Perez dropped the third strike of what would've been the last out of the game and made a bad throw to first, allowing the runner to to reach first. That led to a three-run Arizona rally and a Braves loss. baseball-reference.com/boxes/ATL/ATL1…

@discodanthecane I've said before: Fulton County Stadium was no-frills, but had a coziness that I always found appealing. My fondness for it also probably has a lot to do with it being the stadium that introduced me to big league ball in my youth.

@ByJasonFoster I miss those old multi-purpose stadiums too. They felt like big sports cathedrals while most of today’s ballparks just feel like Triple-A parks on steroids.

It's kinda funny that the shirtless guys in St. Louis are becoming such a thing. Watch any episode of "This Week in Baseball" from the '70s or '80s and every other crowd shot shows like 10 guys without a shirt.

Lazaro Montes' May power surge continued last night 🔥 MLB's No. 30 prospect (#Mariners) mashed a go-ahead homer in the 9th at Double-A and raised his OPS to 1.000 this month: atmlb.com/4dsntEF

@TaddHaislop It's definitely strong, but the rest of the score is pretty meh. However, the quality of a meh John Williams score is better than most other composers' greatest composition.

The Knight used to play in a stadium just over the state line in Fort Mill that was built for eventual MLB expansion. But it was demolished after they moved into uptown and the land was redeveloped. Relocating back into the city limits was definitely the right move, but the designers of Truist Field were just incredibly short-sighted.
MLBRaleigh@MLBRaleigh

There can be two truths; 1) Charlotte’s ballpark is beautiful and one of the best in baseball. 2) It cannot expand to MLB standards and land not suitable, even if demoed. Thank you for attending our Ted Talk. #RaleighOnDeck #MLB2NC

A baseball hill I will die on is that Ozzie Albies would be on his way to the Hall of Fame if he had like 5 percent better swing decisions.

I remember the day Bobby Cox began his second stint as Braves manager in June 1990. I was 14 and coming back from a trip to Disney World. When he managed his last game with the team, I was married with two kids.

Braves No. 4 prospect Tate Southisene had another good night for Single-A Augusta last night. He's not expected to reach the bigs until 2029, but he's giving a glimpse of what could be on the horizon in Atlanta. mlb.com/news/braves-pr…

@DSimpson88 The parameters ask voters to base their picks on what has happened so far and also on what they expect to happen the rest of the season.

Our first MVP poll of 2026 shows some expected results, but they're definitely not set in stone. Lots of names getting love. I break it all down. mlb.com/news/aaron-jud…

@pyne_jay He's definitely having a great season, but I didn't include him because he's not likely to finish in the top 10 given the excess of strong offensive players this season. It's possible, though. He finished seventh in the vote in his Cy Young season.

@ByJasonFoster Not sure why you wouldn’t make it a five MVP candidates with the way Chris Sale has started the season. Check out his stats.

From today's Braves newsletter: Could Atlanta have four legitimate MVP candidates this season? Basically, yes. If you're curious, it's been 21 years since any team had four players finish in the top 10 in MVP voting. mlb.com/braves/news/ma…
