Swanson will start at shortstop and bat second Thursday against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

The Braves will deploy Swanson out of the two hole for the third straight game, but he'll likely fall in the order this weekend, when Josh Donaldson (calf) is expected to rejoin the lineup. Swanson at least hasn't looked out of place as the No. 2 hitter with two extra-base knocks in those contests, including a three-run home run Wednesday.

Swanson went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop took Luis Perdomo deep in the seventh inning for his sixth long ball of the year. Swanson's .263/.336/.545 slash line and 25 RBI through 30 games are well ahead of his 2018 performance, and the 25-year-old remains on track for a breakout campaign in the power department.

Swanson is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson heads to the bench after starting the last nine games and going 8-for-34 with one home run and three RBI. Johan Camargo will start at shortstop and bat sixth in his absence.

Swanson went 1-for-3 with an two-run homer in Atlanta's 8-7 win Saturday against the Indians in the second game of the doubleheader.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson connected for a two-run homer in the seventh inning off Dan Otero which pulled the Braves to within four runs. The 25-year-old raised his batting average to .258 and has 20 RBI for the season.

Swanson is out of the lineup for Sunday night's game against the Mets, Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson started the first 14 games of the year but heads to the bench after going 1-for-4 with three RBI and a walk Saturday. Johan Camargo will start at shortstop and bat sixth in his stead for the series finale.

Swanson went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 7-1 win over the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop has been on a run-producing tear lately, going 5-for-15 over the last four games with a triple, two homers and nine RBI. Swanson's four home runs and .324 batting average suggest the 25-year-old is poised for a 2019 breakout, but he's been hot before and been unable to sustain it whether due to injury or regression. Enjoy this production while it lasts, but he still has plenty to prove to be considered a reliable fantasy asset.

Swanson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk-off single in a 4-3 victory against the Marlins on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old displayed more power last season, hitting 14 homers, but seven of them came in the final 55 games. He has three in the first nine contests of 2019, perhaps indicating Swanson's increased power is here to stay. He is off to a strong start, with a .346 (9-for-26) average, four extra-base hits, nine RBI and six runs in nine games this season.

Swanson went 1-for-2 with a walk, solo home run and two RBI on Wednesday against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson took Jon Lester deep in the third inning to record his second homer of the season. He drove in his second run of the game on a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning. Coming off a disappointing 2018 campaign, Swanson has started quickly, reaching base in four of the first five games this season.

Swanson went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Thursday's loss to the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

There was some concern about Swanson's ability to hit for power in the early part of the season following November wrist surgery, but he got good wood on the ball in the eighth inning and ripped a two-bagger down the third base line. The 25-year-old shortstop isn't an elite fantasy contributor but did hit a career-high 14 homers last season, a number he'll be looking to top provided he can stay healthy in 2019.

Swanson went 1-for-3 with a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Monday's exhibition game against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

His solo shot in the sixth inning off David Hernandez was his first homer of the spring. Swanson's .290/.371/.419 slash line in 35 plate appearances is somewhat encouraging, but the shortstop figures to hit at the bottom of the Braves' order in 2019 -- he was slotted in ninth Monday as the team used a DH -- and his opportunities to make a fantasy impact could be limited.
