Roddery Munoz tosses six shutout innings in Rome’s win
The Braves are somehow in danger of being swept by the lowly Diamondbacks, thanks to a frustrating loss on Tuesday night. And with this week being a little different in the minors, due to Memorial Day on Monday, only two of Atlanta’s affiliates played last night. Here’s a look at the action from Tuesday… AA…

Bryce Elder carries no-hitter into the sixth, while CJ Alexander homers again
Instead of the normal Monday off-day, both Triple-A Gwinnett and Double-A Mississippi played games yesterday. The two-game slate wound up featuring some excitement too, as the Stripers received a gem from its starting pitcher and the M-Braves continued to hit the ball well. Here’s a look at the action from Monday down on the Braves…

M-Braves break out with historic offensive performance; Hendrick Clementina tallies 5 hits
Some big news came across the wire this morning as it’s been reported that the Atlanta Braves have called up prospect outfielder Michael Harris II. Harris will make the unusual jump from Double-A to the majors, and the kid will wear no. 23 with Atlanta. Many of us suspected that Harris would earn some kind…

It’s happening, the Atlanta Braves have called up prospect Michael Harris II
Count me as one who was totally wrong about the plans of the major league club (trust me, it happens often). Prospect outfielder Michael Harris II is headed to Atlanta, where he’ll wear no. 23 for the big league team after putting together an amazing performance in Double-A. The surprising promotion (for some of us)…

Alan Rangel and Luis De Avila both shove; Brandol Mezquita extends on-base streak to 31
The Atlanta Braves nearly spoiled another potential win late in the game on Tuesday night. Up 4-3 against Philly in the top-half of the ninth, Bryce Harper homered to center to put the Phillies up by one, and once again it looked like another disappointing loss was coming. But surprisingly, the Braves answered in the…

Braves prospect Dylan Dodd wins Pitcher of the Week award for Rome
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). Giving the org another weekly accolade, prospect lefty Dylan Dodd took home one of the 11 Pitcher of the Week awards for his performance with High-A…

Dylan Lee recalled from Gwinnett; Braves DFA Tyler Thornburg
The Braves made a few adjustments to the big league bullpen on Monday heading into tonight’s game against the Phillies. This afternoon, Atlanta designated reliever Tyler Thornburg for assignment and recalled lefty Dylan Lee from Triple-A Gwinnett. Thornburg’s one-inning appearance on Sunday versus the Marlins was his first in over a week, as the 33-year-old…

Augusta snaps losing streak; Vaughn Grissom tallies 3 hits and steals home
The Braves already clinched a series victory against the Marlins back on Saturday, but it sure would’ve been nice to string a few wins together with another W in its rubber game on Sunday. However, a messy outing for Ian Anderson (4 ER) and a dominant complete-game by Miami’s Sandy Alcantara didn’t allow that to…

Gwinnett wins fourth in a row, while Michael Harris does it all in M-Braves victory
It seems like its been awhile, but on Saturday the Braves won its second series of the month, beating the Marlins 4-3 thanks to a pair of home runs from William Contreras and a solid five-inning start by righty Kyle Wright. It’s pretty crazy, Contreras has played in just 10 games this season… but already…
