Eric Cole

I started my career writing about baseball covering the Atlanta Braves for SB Nation's Talking Chop back in 2015 which has since been renamed Battery Power. After years of writing for those fine folks, I made the decision to take over as Site Expert at House That Hank Built before becoming a full-time MLB Staff Writer for FanSided in 2023. Along the way, I have been a guest on multiple ESPN radio affiliates as well as 680 The Fan and 92.9 The Game to discuss Braves baseball and especially Braves prospects and was a long-time host on the Battery Power podcast. These days, I continue to write about the Braves as well as covering the Astros, Padres, and Angels with particular expertise with minor league coverage, the MLB Draft, and bashing Anthony Rendon when possible. When I am not writing about or talking about baseball (which is seldom), I am an avid baseball card collector (Maddux and Soroka being my primary personal collections) and I also collect shark teeth. All other sports are mostly dead to me as my Bills have broken my heart too many times.

Tony Boyer

Tony is a contributor to Puckett’s Pond. Growing up on the 3rd base line in the Metrodome as a season ticket holder, his love of baseball developed at a very young age. Minnesota Twins prospects fascinate him, but it doesn’t take away from what’s happening on the big league roster. After playing baseball for 15 years and coaching youth baseball afterwards, fundamentals and technique have a special place in his heart. Outside of baseball Tony enjoys spending time with his family and watching more sports.
