MILWAUKEE -- The Braves announced Monday that AJ Smith-Shawver underwent Tommy John surgery to reconstruct the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. It was previously unknown if Smith-Shawver would need the full Tommy John surgery, as that wouldn’t be determined until his elbow was examined during the procedure, which

ATLANTA -- AJ Smith-Shawver's NL Rookie of the Year Award-worthy campaign ended when he heard his right elbow pop just moments after getting hit on the right heel by Bryson Stott’s line-drive comebacker during a 5-4 loss to the Phillies in the first game of a doubleheader on Thursday afternoon

ATLANTA -- Braves manager Brian Snitker and pitcher Chris Sale both playfully said something like, “We should have expected it,” when talking about Ronald Acuña Jr. homering on Friday night against the first pitch he saw in nearly a full calendar year. Acuña actually didn’t seem surprised after hitting a

WASHINGTON -- Ronald Acuña Jr. is back. Following Atlanta’s 10-inning 8-7 loss to Washington on Thursday night, manager Brian Snitker shared the news fans had been waiting for: Acuña was being activated off the injured list ahead of the Braves’ series opener vs. San Diego on Friday. He will bat

Ronald Acuña Jr. passed another test by playing on consecutive days for the first time in nearly a full calendar year. Acuña went 0-for-2, drew two walks, scored two runs and played six innings of right field as Triple-A Gwinnett defeated Charlotte, 7-6, on Friday night at Coolray Field. The

Ronald Acuña Jr. is nearing a return to the Major Leagues, and it doesn’t look like he’s missed a beat at the plate. Acuña went 2-for-3 with a single and a double for Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday in his second rehab appearance. The Braves' star tore his left ACL on

ATLANTA -- Spencer Strider said he felt ready to return to MLB pitching ahead of the Braves’ 5-2 win against the Nationals on Thursday afternoon at Truist Park. “I feel like I could have been effective yesterday,” Strider said. “I anticipate that I’ll pitch in five, six, seven days somewhere.

ATLANTA -- Braves manager Brian Snitker and pitching coach Rick Kranitz both blamed recent inactivity when asked about the lower-than-anticipated velocity readings Spencer Strider produced during a simulated game at Truist Park on Wednesday afternoon.

Ronald Acuña Jr. cleared another hurdle, and an outfield wall, in what was his first game in nearly a full calendar year. He will now prepare to begin playing for Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday. Acuña began his Minor League rehab assignment by going 1-for-3 with a homer for the Braves’

ATLANTA -- Spencer Strider had hoped to be activated from the injured list this week. But the Braves have decided he will throw in a simulated game before they determine whether he's ready to be activated from the injured list. Strider will throw five innings, approximately 70-75 pitches, in a

ATLANTA -- Ronald Acuña Jr. appears to still be on course to rejoin Atlanta’s lineup by the end of this month. Acuña will begin a rehab stint when the Braves’ Florida Complex League team hosts the FCL Orioles on Tuesday night at CoolToday Park. He will continue to work out

ATLANTA -- Spencer Strider took another step toward returning to the Braves rotation when he threw a bullpen session before the club’s three-game winning streak ended with a 4-3 loss to the Reds on Wednesday night at Truist Park.

DENVER -- Braves starting pitcher AJ Smith-Shawver left Tuesday’s 8-2 win vs. the Rockies at Coors Field in the sixth inning after being hit in the right arm by a 105.3 mph line drive off the bat of Ryan McMahon. Smith-Shawver recovered to field the ball and throw McMahon out

ATLANTA -- Spencer Strider gained encouraging news when an MRI exam showed he is not dealing with a significant right hamstring injury. But one week after completing his year-long recovery from elbow surgery, the Braves pitcher must mentally deal with another stretch of inactivity. “It sucks,” Strider said. “I have

ATLANTA -- Spencer Strider is back on the injured list, less than a week after he made his much-anticipated return from elbow surgery. Strider strained his right hamstring while playing catch on Monday afternoon at Truist Park. He was placed on the 15-day IL after informing the Braves he would

ATLANTA -- It’s going to be hard to convince anyone that Spencer Strider needs another rehab start. The Braves right-hander seems primed to renew the dominance he regularly displayed before undergoing season-ending right elbow surgery last year. Strider recorded 13 strikeouts and allowed just one run over 5 1/3 innings

ATLANTA -- Reynaldo López is still expected to miss most, if not all of the remainder of this season. But the Braves' right-handed starter received good news on Tuesday, when an arthroscopic surgical procedure found no structural damage in his right shoulder. “If everything goes right, I think we can

ATLANTA -- Sean Murphy has been activated and the Braves have decided to keep Drake Baldwin -- their top prospect, per MLB Pipeline -- at the big league level to share the catching duties. Murphy was activated from the injured list and Chadwick Tromp was designated for assignment on Sunday.

LOS ANGELES -- The Braves are hoping Reynaldo López will pitch again this year. But they won’t know until he undergoes arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder next week. “They want to go in there and make sure nothing is going on,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said. “We’ll know more

If Spencer Strider’s performance in his third rehab start had to be ranked, it would probably land somewhere between the utter dominance of his Grapefruit League debut and the grit of his second outing. Nonetheless, Strider took one more step toward his big league return. Strider, who started the season

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Sean Murphy experienced the most frustrating year of his career last year and then missed most of this year’s Spring Training with a cracked rib. But as Braves camp is coming to a close, the 2023 All-Star is confident he can get back to where he

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Austin Riley and the Braves breathed a sigh of relief on Friday, when a CT scan confirmed he didn’t suffer yet another right hand fracture. X-rays and the CT scan showed no structural damage after Riley’s right hand was hit by a Jackson Rutledge fastball in

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- When Jurickson Profar returned to Braves camp on Wednesday, there was really only one question that mattered. Is he confident he’ll be in Atlanta’s lineup on Opening Day? “I’m very confident,” Profar said. “I’m very, very confident.”

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Braves left fielder Jurickson Profar is expected to be ready for Opening Day after a CT scan showed just a bone bruise in his left wrist. Profar jammed the wrist while attempting to make a sliding catch during the fourth inning of Saturday’s game against the
