Braves' Michael Harris: Swipes bag, drives in two
Harris went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 8-7 extra-inning loss to Washington.
Harris hadn't logged a steal since May 4 versus the Dodgers. Of course, it doesn't help that he hit .232 with a .302 on-base percentage over the 15 games between thefts, with five of his 13 hits in that span going for extra bases. The outfielder is up to 8-for-10 on stolen base attempts this season. While his speed is intact, he's struggled in nearly every other area, posting a .225/.259/.342 slash line, three home runs, 29 RBI, 12 runs scored, nine doubles and two triples through 49 contests. With Ronald Acuna (knee) set to make his season debut Friday, Harris is virtually guaranteed to be hitting in the bottom third of the order for the foreseeable future.

Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Goes yard, reaches four times
Ozuna went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk, two total RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's 8-7 extra-inning loss to Washington.
Ozuna went back-to-back with Matt Olson in the first inning. This was Ozuna's third homer in the last four games, a span in which he's 7-for-15 (.467) with six RBI and a 4:4 BB:K. The designated hitter struggled for power in late April and early May, but he seems to have bounced back. He's now batting. 278 with a .913 OPS, nine homers, 24 RBI, 24 runs scored, six doubles and no stolen bases across 46 contests.

Braves' Matt Olson: Keeps rolling with early homer
Olson went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, an RBI double and two total runs scored in Thursday's 8-7 extra-inning loss to Washington.
Olson opened the scoring with a solo shot in the first inning. He also forced extras with an RBI double in the ninth, but Atlanta ultimately fell in the 10th. The first baseman is 11-for-21 (.524) with four homers, three doubles, seven RBI and six runs scored during his current five-game hitting streak. Overall, he's up to a .250/.357/.483 slash line with 11 homers, 28 RBI, 29 runs scored, nine doubles and no stolen bases across 49 contests.

Braves' AJ Smith-Shawver: Bad outing versus Nationals
Smith-Shawver allowed seven runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out one over three-plus innings in a no-decision versus Washington on Thursday.
Smith-Shawver's start was pushed back a day after Wednesday's rainout, and he didn't pitch well. The right-hander endured his worst start of the season, with the second and fourth innings being particularly troublesome. One silver lining was that he didn't allow a home run, but this start was discouraging after he'd allowed just two runs (one earned) across his first 19.2 innings in May. He's now at a 3.67 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 41:20 K:BB through 41.2 innings over eight starts this season. Smith-Shawver's next outing is projected to be at Philadelphia, which is a tough matchup but one that will allow fantasy managers to see if he can bounce back effectively.

Braves' Ronald Acuna: Return confirmed for Friday
Acuna (knee) will be activated from the injured list Friday and be in Atlanta's lineup.
Acuna was scratched from Thursday's lineup with Triple-A Gwinnett, suggesting he would be back at some point during Atlanta's weekend series against the Padres. That move has now been announced by the team, though he'll still need to be officially activated from the injured list. Acuna hit .417/.632/.833 across 19 plate appearances with Gwinnett and will be set to appear in a big-league game for the first time since May 26, 2024.

Braves' Ronald Acuna: Signs point to debut Friday
Acuna (knee) was a healthy scratch for Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Acuna's scratch from the Triple-A lineup indicates that he will be in the lineup for Friday's game against the Padres. If the superstar does indeed make his return, it will come three days shy of the one-year anniversary of his ACL tear. The outfielder has looked good in his rehab stint, going 6-for-15 with two home runs, two doubles and seven free passes. Defensively, the 27-year-old played a full nine innings as an outfielder for the first time during his rehab Wednesday. It appeared he was going to play a full nine innings in the outfield Tuesday, but the game was cut short in the fifth inning due to rain.

Braves' Sean Murphy: Sitting again in favor of Baldwin
Murphy is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.
Murphy looks to have fallen into the short side of a platoon at catcher with rookie Drake Baldwin, who will make a fifth straight start against a right-hander Thursday in Trevor Williams. On the flip side, seven of Murphy's last eight starts have come against left-handed pitching.

Braves' AJ Smith-Shawver: Atlanta-Washington postponed
Smith-Shawver and Atlanta won't play the Nationals on Wednesday after the game was postponed due to rain in Washington.
The two teams will make up the postponed game Sept. 16 as part of a doubleheader. Smith-Shawver's start has been pushed back a day to Thursday's series finale in Washington, per Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Braves' Sean Murphy: Losing work to Baldwin
Murphy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.
Murphy owns an .817 OPS for the season, but with rookie Drake Baldwin sporting an even hotter bat (.983 OPS), the playing time behind the dish has begun to tilt in the youngster's favor. The two backstops seem to be moving into a loose platoon behind the dish, as the right-handed-hitting Murphy has made each of his last three starts against left-handed pitching but now finds himself out of the lineup for a fifth straight matchup with a righty (Trevor Williams).

Braves' Matt Olson: Smacks another home run
Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Washington.
Olson put Atlanta on the board in the second inning when he took Mitchell Parker deep to center field for a solo homer. Olson has recorded at least one RBI in each of his last four games, going 8-for-16 with three home runs and five RBI over that span. He has slashed .250/.315/.531 across 73 plate appearances since the beginning of May.

Braves' Spencer Strider: Takes loss in return
Strider (0-2) took the loss in Tuesday's game against the Nationals, allowing four runs on six hits and one walk while striking out three across 4.1 innings.
Strider was activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's start after missing the last month due to a strained hamstring. He got off to a poor start by yielding three first-inning runs before giving up a fourth run in the second on a Dylan Crews solo homer. Strider has been limited to just two starts this season due to injury and has a 5.79 ERA and 1.39 WHIP across 9.1 innings. He'll look for his first win of the season in his next start, which is lined up for this weekend at home against San Diego.
