5 years agoAtlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in the Braves loss to the Cubs Thursday. It was his 13th on the season and he is now rocking a .284/.345/.472 slash with six stolen bases on the season. Albies is still subject to some streakiness but his 19 runs, six homers, 20 RBI, two stolen bases, and .320 average over the past month may be putting pressure on Braves Manager Brian Snitker to move him back up the lineup. He's been hitting in the six through eight slots which has been working well, but a move back up the order would improve his value even more. Keep his hot bat in starting lineups and enjoy the production.--Zach Alexander
