Braves Today

The Braves’ 2026 season ends with a 4–1 Game 4 loss to the Dodgers and a 3–1 NLDS defeat, highlighted by Atlanta’s .145/.259/.242 series line and minimal extra-base production outside Ozzie Albies and Michael Harris. Lindsay Crosby argues the club underachieved based on roster names yet overachieved given injuries and below-average season offense while still winning 94 games and the division. He outlines key offseason evaluations—especially Austin Riley’s post-surgery struggles and Ronald Acuña Jr.’s health/extension outlook—plus concerns about Drake Baldwin, shortstop options with multiple free agents, and rotation depth. Crosby discusses potential moves like re-signing Tyler Mahle, adding multiple starters, and notes upcoming changes including a new hitting coach and continued offseason coverage amid a possible lockout.

Chris Sale was hit hard but limited the Dodgers to three runs as Atlanta’s offense managed only one, failing to capitalize on a bases-loaded chance while Yoshinobu Yamamoto dominated over seven innings. LA leads the series 2-1 with more homers, and key Braves bats (Acuña, Olson, Baldwin, Riley) have struggled. Atlanta faces elimination with Glasnow vs Mahle, who has a 16-inning scoreless streak vs the Dodgers, but the Braves must score.

Walt Weiss explains why the Braves held Chris Sale for Game 3 to avoid two diminished short-rest starts, preserving a chance for a full-strength start now and possible Game 5 relief. Sale praises Atlanta’s calm bullpen, including Ray Kerr and Didier Fuentes, and backs Ronald Acuña Jr. The episode adds context to Atlanta’s postseason offense (top-4 wRC+, high walk rate) despite key struggles, then argues the Game 5 bullpen plan should change by limiting Grant Holmes and Dylan Lee and leaning more on Kerr and Dylan Dodd.

Atlanta split the first two NLDS games in Los Angeles by winning Game 2 (3–2) with a third straight bullpen game, setting up a best-of-three with home field at Truist Park. Lindsay Crosby explains why Walt Weiss didn’t chase Game 1 from behind and why he chose not to start Chris Sale on regular calendar rest, preferring a fully rested Sale for Game 3. The episode breaks down key bullpen moments (Ray Kerr, Robert Suárez, Didier Fuentes) and Michael Harris’ big night, while stressing Atlanta must get more production from the top of the order to beat the Dodgers.
