Road to Atlanta - Episode 40 - Weekly Braves MiLB roundup with a surprising amount of reliever talk 01.06.2021

Episode 289 - How the Braves started to get their groove back: An Austin Riley Fan Podcast 23.05.2021

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we have actual minor league baseball to talk about which has us all hot and bothered.

Road to Atlanta - Episode 35 - Interview with special guest and Braves outfield prospect Michael Harris 08.04.2021

This week's episode of Road to Atlanta is a bit different. Minor league camp is just now getting underway and as we await minor league roster announcements and the start of the MiLB season, instead of just another mailbag episode, I figured that the best course of action was to reach out to one of the more asked about prospects in the Braves system and fortunately, he said yes. Michael Harris join...
