Holmes Shines as Braves’ Hidden Ace | MLB News

Grant Holmes delivered a masterclass on the mound for the Atlanta Braves, tossing six-plus innings of no-hit baseball against the Chicago White Sox while allowing just one hit and striking out three. His performance wasn’t a fluke — it’s part of a breakout season with an 8-5 record, a 3.64 ERA, and 78 strikeouts in 92⅓ innings. Despite past rough outings, Holmes has shown flashes of elite potential, especially with his revamped slider — now a weapon teams can’t ignore. With Sale anchoring the rotation, Holmes’ emergence creates a dangerous one-two punch that could be exactly what Atlanta needs to compete in October. If he can keep this up, he might not need to be a superstar — just a reliable ace when it matters most.
