Braves’ Surge After June Collapse | Atlanta Braves News

The Atlanta Braves looked like NL East locks with a 10.5-game lead by Memorial Day, but June turned into a nightmare with a 9-14 record and a crumbling offense. July’s resurgence—scoring nearly seven runs per game—hasn’t erased the tension, as a 3-game cushion over the Marlins and Phillies feels fragile. Manager optimism is rising, fueled by the potential return of Ronald Acuña Jr. and setup man Robert Suarez, but injuries to key starters, including one possibly sidelined until September, have forced a desperate trade deadline push for a frontline pitcher. Rumors point to Tarik Skubal and Sonny Gray as targets. Meanwhile, the offense is showing signs of life, with players crediting better swing decisions and a return to early-season confidence.
