  • The Atlanta Braves Are Running Out of Time to Fix Their Roster & Offense | Atlanta Braves Podcast
    Jun 18 2026

    The Braves endured a disastrous Wednesday, losing the resumed rain-suspended game 7–2 and the nightcap 7–5 to the Giants for a third straight series loss. Lindsay Crosby breaks down Atlanta’s offensive struggles, defends Walt Weiss’s decision to leave Carlos Carrasco in for the ninth, and highlights how late scoring masked a largely uncompetitive effort. He argues roster construction must change, including making Jorge Mateo the everyday shortstop over struggling Ha-Seong Kim and addressing the lack of outfield depth that forced Matt Olson into right field. Crosby discusses Michael Harris’s back issue, Ronald Acuña Jr.’s hamstring timeline, and why carrying two DH-only bats isn’t sustainable. He also analyzes J.R. Ritchie’s five-run start, noting low whiff rates, poor location, and fatigue, while acknowledging Atlanta has few internal rotation alternatives right now.

  • Why Did the Braves Start That Game? & Drake Baldwin BLASTS Leadoff Homer | Atlanta Braves Podcast
    Jun 17 2026

    Drake Baldwin returned with a 473-foot leadoff homer—the longest MLB home run this season—as Braves-Giants game one was suspended after 1.5 innings due to worsening rain and an unplayable field. Lindsay Crosby explains the decision-making process between the Braves and umpires, outlines today’s 2:00 PM resumption and 7:15 PM nightcap, and questions Atlanta’s plan to bullpen game one while J.R. Ritchie starts game two under the 27th-man roster rules. The episode also breaks down Grant Holmes’ rough, weather-impacted two innings, Michael Harris’ exit with lower back tightness, and potential roster moves for fresh arms.

  • Is This the END of Spencer Strider? How the Braves Replace Him This Season | Atlanta Braves Podcast
    Jun 15 2026

    The Braves drop two straight series, including losing two of three to the Mets, and Spencer Strider leaves his start with declining velocity and is placed on the IL with right elbow inflammation, heading to Dr. Keith Meister for evaluation. The episode breaks down what that could mean, the risks of additional UCL procedures, and Atlanta’s short-term rotation plan with J.R. Ritchie stepping in, plus potential reinforcements and trade considerations. It also highlights Atlanta’s ugly weekend offense (nine runs, few extra-base hits), notes key cold bats like Austin Riley, and looks ahead to a vulnerable upcoming schedule while the Braves still hold a sizable division lead.
