He now has a home run in three straight games and in four of his last five. The two-hit outing also extended his hit streak to six games. During that span, Olson has gone 9-for-21 (.428) and has improved his batting average from .233 to .240.

EDGE Analysis

The Atlanta slugger took an 0-2 fastball from Josiah Gray the opposite way to left field for his 30th home run of the season and tie the game at 1-1. Olson's bat has come back to life the last couple of days after he received a breather on Sept. 24 in response to a .111/.210/.167 slash line in his first 81 September plate appearances. Since the breather, he is 5-for-14 with three extra-base hits.

EDGE Analysis

His two-run blast off Cory Abbott in the fourth inning opened the scoring and gave Bryce Elder all the run support he would need. Olson snapped a 17-game homer drought with the performance, and his bat is showing some flickers of life with the playoffs on the horizon -- he's gone 6-for-25 (.240) over his last seven starts with two doubles in addition to Monday's long ball, Olson's 29th of the season.

Olson will sit for the first time this season Saturday against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Atlanta has leaned heavily on its new $168 million man this season, and the workload may be weighing on him. He's faded hard down the stretch, hitting .096/.194/.145 across his last 23 games. Austin Riley will slide over to first base to give him a breather, with Orlando Arcia starting at third.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Olson's stat line wasn't eye-popping from a fantasy standpoint by any means, but it was likely a welcome sight for his managers nonetheless amid a prolonged skid at the plate. Since mashing a three-run home run in a win over the Athletics on Sept. 6, Olson slashed .053/.122/.053 with a 34.1 percent strikeout rate over his subsequent 10 games. Even after the two-hit game, Olson is batting just .235, the lowest average of his career aside from the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign.

EDGE Analysis

Olson walked and scored in the first inning before taking Cole Irvin deep for a three-run shot in the top of the third frame. The long ball was his 28th of the year and first since Aug. 24. Olson came into Tuesday's contest having gone 1-for-23 in his previous seven games, so perhaps the homer will get him back on track moving forward. On the season, the first baseman owns a .247 average with 28 homers, 90 RBI and 74 runs scored over 136 games with his new squad.

Olson went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Friday's 11-4 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Olson's collected six hits, including a home run and three doubles, in his last two games. For the season, he's up to 40 two-baggers, trailing only the Dodgers' Freddie Freeman (42). Olson continues to flex strong power, with Friday's effort getting his slugging percentage back up to .500 for the first time since July 31. The first baseman is batting .254 with 27 home runs, 87 RBI and 67 runs scored through 127 contests overall.

Olson went 3-for-5 with a walk, two doubles, a grand slam and a second run scored in Wednesday's 14-2 rout of the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

The first baseman is now tied for third in the majors with 66 extra-base hits, including a career-high 39 doubles, and only Aaron Judge (68) and Olson's teammate Austin Riley (67) are ahead of him on that leaderboard. Olson's been providing plenty of power in August, batting .239 (22-for-92) through 23 games with six of his 27 homers on the year and 20 of his 87 RBI.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The first baseman continued a power surge that has seen him leave the yard four times in the last six games and eight times in 24 contests since the All-Star break. Olson's up to 25 homers on the year, the fourth straight full season (not counting the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign) in which he's reached that plateau. With 79 RBI through 118 games, he's also on pace for his second straight 100-RBI season.
