The 2016 season didn’t get off to the best of starts for Ender Inciarte but a strong second half combined with solid defense throughout made center field a position of strength for the Atlanta Braves.
The Shelby Miller trade is the deal that keeps on giving, but unlike Dansby Swanson and Aaron Blair, Inciarte was expected to help the major league team right away. Inciarte’s contribution was slowed early on due to a strained hamstring that cost him the first month of the season.
Once he did return, he initially struggled at the plate as he looked to regain his timing.
