Over the past week, due to injuries and ineffectiveness, the Braves have made some changes to their lineup. It seems they found a version they liked last night and are looking to stick with it for the time being.
With Travis d’Arnaud being out for an extended period of time, the Braves have decided that the time to shine for Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley as middle of the order anchors is now. Both Abies and Riley have certainly shown vast improvements in their offensive approach over the past few weeks. It is critical that they continue to find success through both good plate discipline and hard contact.
