Once again, the Atlanta Braves farm system was represented, as on Monday MiLB.com released its picks for Batter and Pitcher of the Week for last week’s contests (May 17-22).

A 10-strikeout relief appearance? A look at Lisandro Santos’ crazy performance with Rome last night
I didn’t have a chance to write up a farm recap this morning, and it was a bad day to miss too, because there were several notable performances down on the Atlanta Braves farm on Thursday night. The most unique one by far was a 10-strikeout relief appearance from High-A Rome’s Lisandro Santos. Now the […]

Multiple moves on the farm: prospect Victor Vodnik is headed to Gwinnett
Today several moves impacted the Braves farm system, more specifically the org’s Double-A affiliate, the Mississippi Braves. Perhaps the most exciting move features one of the system’s up and coming pitching prospects, righty Victor Vodnik. Also, though I haven’t seen it on Twitter: per MiLB.com’s transaction page, Gwinnett has placed prospect righty William Woods on […]

Week 7 Farm Preview: Tucker Davidson recalled to majors, both Rome and Augusta to face tough opponents this week
It’s a new week for the Braves four minor league affiliates. Now nearly 40 games into the 2022 regular season, the farm system has played enough baseball that storylines are beginning to take shape.

Struggles with runners on has held back prospect lefty Dylan Dodd
Last year the Braves perhaps surprised some evaluators by going under-slot with its third-round pick, selecting a senior college arm out of a small school in 22-year-old lefty Dylan Dodd. Not much was known about the Southeast Missouri State product, and with a career 4.02 ERA in three collegiate seasons, Dodd wasn’t necessarily a highly […]

Cade Bunnell promoted to M-Braves ahead of Thursday’s game against Chattanooga
It’s been somewhat of an uneven start for the 24-year-old Cade Bunnell, but according to the transactions page at MiLB.com, on Thursday the infielder was promoted to Double-A Mississippi. I have to say, the move is a bit surprising, for Bunnell has mostly struggled with High-A Rome so far this season, despite at times showing […]

Braves Farm Leaders: Brandol Mezquita and Jared Shuster are two prospects on the rise
Along with my daily recaps and weekly series previews, here at Braves Farm I plan to also write a reoccurring column examining the top performers in the Atlanta Braves minor league system. Each post will look at the two best players in the system at any given time – one hitter and one pitcher – […]

Samuel Strickland placed on injured list, while Darling Florentino heads to Augusta
A pair of roster moves were made today, impacting the Braves Single-A affiliate, the Augusta GreenJackets. Lefty pitcher Samuel Strickland has been placed on the 7-day injured list, while righty pitcher Darling Florentino was promoted from the FCL Braves to the GreenJackets. Regarding Strickland, the IL placement now makes sense given he was on track […]

3 things we’ve learned about the Braves farm system so far this season
Although it may seem like it, one month is not enough time to determine much of anything in baseball. April wasn’t even technically a full month for the Braves minor league system, as the Triple-A level didn’t open its 2022 season until roughly the fifth day of the month, and the other three classifications didn’t […]
