Kimberly Moore+FollowBraves eye Giolito for rotation boostAtlanta’s front office might be busier than we thought—Lucas Giolito, once a hot trade topic, is now on the Braves’ radar as a potential signing. After elbow surgery and a quiet market, Giolito could be a smart pickup if he’s healthy, giving Atlanta a chance to manage their rotation depth and bullpen fatigue. The real question is price: if he’s reasonable, it’s a win; if not, Chris Bassitt or other options might make more sense. Would you take a chance on Giolito or stick with a more proven arm? #Sports #Baseball #Braves00Share

Fans can expect a real showdown as familiar faces and new contenders all try to prove themselves. If this depth pays off, the Braves’ bullpen could become their biggest asset this season.

Renee Ramirez+FollowBraves eye Bassitt to steady rotationAtlanta’s front office is making a bold move to shore up the Braves’ pitching future by targeting Chris Bassitt, a proven workhorse, to join Chris Sale. With only two starters locked in past 2026 and last year’s injuries still fresh in everyone’s mind, the Braves aren’t settling for just any arm—they want a veteran who can handle October pressure.

What do you think—will Bassitt be the steady hand this rotation needs? #Sports #Baseball #Braves00Share

Sure, his fastball isn’t what it used to be, but he still delivers when it counts. Plus, his leadership could be a huge boost for Atlanta’s younger pitchers. Would you take the risk on Verlander for a short-term deal, or play it safe with someone like Bassitt? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Baseball #Braves21Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowBraves fans react to Acuña Jr staying in outfieldLosing Ronald Acuña Jr. to another ACL tear was a gut punch for Braves fans, and the offseason only brought more curveballs. After Ha-Seong Kim’s freak injury left a hole in the infield, there was real buzz about Acuña possibly shifting to shortstop—a move that would’ve shaken up the team’s look.
