    Atlanta Braves Clippings Monday, September 21, 2020 Braves.com Wright baffles Mets in 6 1/3-inning, 1-hit gem By Mark Bowman Ronald Acuña Jr. was bound to right himself before the postseason arrived. But the fact Kyle Wright has also started the regular season’s home stretch on a good note gives the Braves even more reason to be excited about what October might bring. Acuña’s solo homer provided all of the necessary support for Wright, who constructed a career-best start in the Braves’ 7-0 win over the Mets on Sunday afternoon at Citi Field. The right-hander’s confidence has grown significantly as he’s used his past two starts to show he has the potential to lessen concerns about the postseason rotation. “He’s been tremendous,” said catcher Travis d’Arnaud, who hit a two-run double in the eighth inning. “His demeanor on the mound and his demeanor in between innings, he’s been carrying himself really well. He’s just been attacking guys.” The Braves’ magic number to clinch a third consecutive National League East title has been reduced to six with seven games remaining, four of which will be played against the second-place Marlins this week. Looking ahead to the postseason, the Braves’ rotation will likely include Max Fried, Ian Anderson, Cole Hamels and Wright, who had essentially been a candidate by default before he produced two of the strongest starts of his young career over the past eight days. Wright earned his first career win with six strong innings at Nationals Park last weekend.

    Atlanta Braves Clippings Friday, September 18, 2020 Braves.com Cy Young poll: The 2020 favorites are ... By David Adler The two Cy Young Award races this year are completely different, but both are coming into focus as the 2020 season gets down to the wire. In the American League, Shane Bieber has dominated since Opening Day. The National League race has been much more wide open, but a trio of front-runners has emerged in Yu Darvish, Jacob deGrom and Trevor Bauer. Who deserves to be named each league's best pitcher? We put it up to the voters. MLB.com asked its reporters and analysts to fill out their 2020 NL and AL Cy Young Award ballots, following our MVP poll last week. There were 38 voters in total. Reporters were asked to rank their top five choices in each league, with five points awarded for a first-place vote, four for second, etc. Here are the MLB.com picks for the AL and NL Cy Young Award winners. AMERICAN LEAGUE 1) Shane Bieber, Indians (38 first-place votes, unanimous) It's no surprise that Bieber was the pick to win the AL Cy Young Award. Really, it's not even much of a surprise that he was the unanimous No. 1 choice. That's how good Bieber has been. The Indians ace isn't just the AL Cy Young favorite, he could get real AL MVP Award consideration. Bieber is in position to win a pitching Triple Crown, as he leads the Major Leagues with eight wins and 112 strikeouts and is second with a 1.74 ERA.

    The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club ________________________________________________________________________________ February 2019 By Dave Badertscher; photos by Linda Lovejoy The Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club held its annual Gameboree banquet and fundraiser on Saturday, January 19, 2019, at the Atlanta Marriott Northwest at Galleria. This year’s theme was “All-Stars, Gold Gloves and National League Honors.” More than 180 Braves fans, honored guests, and Braves officials turned out for the Fan Club’s largest event of the year. Emcee Paul Byrd (pictured below) was a big hit. The reception and silent auction opened at 5:00 with a fine selection of Braves and other baseball memorabilia. Thanks go to Silent Auction and Raffle Coordinator Nate Morgan and his crew, as well as to Fan Club members who generously donated items. As usual, all proceeds go to the Phil Niekro Scholarship Fund. This year guests in the Auction Room were entertained by Braves organist Matthew Kaminski. Quite a nice treat! Once everyone was seated for dinner in the Cobb Ballroom, Fan Club President Howard Evans introduced the guests and award winners at the head table. Atlanta’s favorite tenor, Timothy Miller, sang “The Lord’s Prayer.” During dinner folks enjoyed a slide presentation highlighting the Fan Club’s many fun and worthwhile activities over the past year. Following dinner, Howard thanked Club members who were involved in planning, organizing, and setting up this year’s event, especially Gameboree Program Coordinator Wayne Coleman and Logistics Coordinator Judy Messer. Howard talked about upcoming Club activities in 2019, including six monthly social gatherings in the SunTrust Cabanas, our Major League trip to Washington, DC, on June 21-23, and minor league trips to see the Rome Braves and the Gwinnett Stripers this summer.

    Snitker 36-year witness on how ‘content of character’ is byword for Braves’ success By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Tuesday, October 1st, 2013 Never is the quality of charac- ter in a ballplayer more need- ed than the trail of tears through the postseason just commencing. Baseball is the ultimate game of failure, and never are the odds more cruel than in the September stretch leading to the October minefields, trip- wires aplenty waiting to blow up proud 100-win teams long before they reach the World Series. A 1980s get-together of then-Durham Bulls manager Brian Snitker (left) with Hall of Famer Luke Appling, a Braves Cynics can lambaste the At- minor-league hitting instructor, and Snitker's sister Angela lanta Braves all they want, rip- Snitker Jachetta. Photo courtesy of Brian Snitker. ping the achievement of just one World Series victory in the nearly three decades they’ve ranked as the gold standard of scouting and player de- velopment. And yet the fact the Braves have continually replenished themselves from within has kept them almost constantly in contention, which is the object of the game, anyway. You can’t be in position to reach, and win, the Fall Classic unless you’re also within hailing distance of first place or the wild card. The Braves almost always have had both in sight. Serving as a model for underachieving Chicago teams seeking to build back their farm systems, the Braves have had just one short dry spell, in the late 2000s. That’s a stellar record beginning in the Reagan administration when the likes of Ted Turner, Bobby Cox and Paul Snyder invested money, time, effort and people in out-developing almost every other team.
