Swanson (head) is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson was fortunate to avoid any concussion-like symptoms after being struck in the head by a pitch in Tuesday's loss, but he sustained a significant bruise that is apparently still causing some pain. Charlie Culberson will start at shortstop Wednesday, but Swanson is expected to rejoin the lineup at some point during the Braves' four-game series in Arizona that kicks off Thursday.

Swanson exited the game after being hit in the head by a Rick Porcello slider, but thankfully didn't suffer a concussion. The 24-year-old is listed day-to-day for now, and it wouldn't be surprising for the Braves to give him a day or two out of the lineup if they wanted to play things safe.

EDGE Analysis

An 86-mph slider got away from Red Sox's starter Rick Porcello, but thankfully Swanson was able to return to his feet fairly quickly. The 24-year-old should be considered day-to-day for the time being. Charlie Culberson served as a pinch runner and took over at shortstop for the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson took Drew Steckenrider deep in the ninth inning to record his 13th home run of the season.

Though his production is not all that appealing in shallow formats, Swanson has taken a step forward with his run and power production from the 2017 season -- his first full season at the major-league level.
