It is fitting that on the night that Andruw Jones’ number was retired by the Braves, Matt Olson hit his 48th home run of the season, creeping closer to Jones’ franchise record of 51 in a season. With 21 games remaining, Matt seems quite likely to break that record, which Jones doesn’t seem too upset about when speaking about it. After a good, but slightly underwhelming first season in Atlanta for Olson, the first baseman has really settled in this year, having the best season of his career. Matt is currently ninth in the league in position-player fWAR, at 5.
