5/20/25	Braves Talk Radio Sparks Wild Trade Debate With Paul Skenes & ATL Rookies. Or, the land of make believe, as baseball historian Chris Dimino likes to call it.

5/20/25	Two Braves Rookies Polled As Top NL Rookie of the Year Candidates. Two Atlanta Braves rookies have been recently voted as the top National League Rookie of the Year candidates for 2025 (so far). Right-handed pitcher AJ Smith-Shawver finished in first place and received 10 first-place votes on MLB.com. Catcher Drake Baldwin finished in second place despite receiving 14 first-place votes. It's hard to believe that Smith-Shawver still had rookie status entering last season because he's made his appearances with the Braves over the last couple years.
