Tampa Bay Rays

Chandler Simpson has settled in as Tampa Bay’s leadoff igniter in left field, batting .309 with a .338 on-base percentage that keeps him on the bases ahead of the Rays’ power bats.

Yandy Díaz — DH. Yandy Díaz gives the Rays a steady bat at designated hitter, hitting .305 with a .371 on-base percentage and 80 RBIs across a full season at the plate. His .472 slugging percentage pairs patience with pop, a complement to Caminero’s power lower in the order.
Atlanta Braves
Michael Harris II — CF. Michael Harris II patrols center field for Atlanta and carries a .287 average into today’s game, with a .488 slugging percentage that reflects real extra-base pop from the position. His .315 on-base percentage rounds out a season of steady everyday production up the middle.
Matt Olson — 1B. Matt Olson holds down first base for the Braves, hitting .248 with 37 home runs and 81 RBIs that make him the club’s primary power source in the middle of the order. He remains the focal point of Atlanta’s lineup as the Braves push through the September stretch.
Ozzie Albies — 2B. Ozzie Albies rounds out Atlanta’s order at second base, hitting .247 with 21 home runs and 68 RBIs that give the lineup pop from the middle infield. His .407 slugging percentage adds another right-handed threat behind Olson and Harris.
