    Strong Pitching Propels Atlanta Braves To Fast Start

    The Atlanta Braves are off to a good start in 2026 and the source of their success is the one area that provided the most concern last season. The pitching staff has performed in the early going, propelling Atlanta into first place through three series. Grant McAuley sizes up the numbers and the reasons for the Braves' pitching prowess. While it may be somewhat unexpected, might it be sustainable if Atlanta's arms can remain healthy? Could some help be on the way in the return of Spencer Strider? Will the rotation continue to support the bullpen by covering the necessary innings? All of those are questions we'll tackle on this episode. Brad Rowland of Hammer Territory will join to share his thoughts on the Braves early results, from the pitching staff to the offense and several players who are still looking to prove something in 2026. We'll also take a look ahead as Atlanta's schedule will turn to a serious run of NL East division play as April rolls on.

    Jurickson Profar's second PED suspension is the latest setback for the Atlanta Braves

    The Atlanta Braves once again find themselves in the kind of familiar territory that would rather avoid. On Tuesday, Major League Baseball announced a 162-game suspension of Jurickson Profar after his second violation of the league’s policy on performance enhancing drugs. Grant McAuley discusses the fallout from Profar’s latest ban, how the Braves will cover for the loss in production, what effects it will have on the lineup construction, the opportunity it presents for newcomer Mike Yastrzemski and others, as well as the possibility of adding another outfielder to cover for the loss. While the Braves lose Profar for the entire season, the $15 million he was owed is now on the table to potentially help the club in a variety of ways. Could that be better spent on a starting pitcher to fortify the injury-riddled rotation. All of that and more on this edition of the show.
