Olson has occupied the second spot on Atlanta’s lineup card for three consecutive contests with Austin Riley and Drake Baldwin hitting cleanup and fifth, respectively, on Tuesday night after sharing the position directly behind top-of-the-order igniter Ronald Acuña Jr. in recent weeks. It’s a slight boost for Olson, who should pick up a couple additional at-bats over the course of the next few weeks as a result of the move. The 31-year-old slugging first baseman has been red-hot of late, batting .309 (17-for-55) with two homers and 15 RBI over his last 15 games. He’s also walked 11 times during that span.

The steal was Acuña’s third in 10 games after he attempted none in his first 19 games back from a torn ACL. He’s given the Braves four straight two-hit games, and he’s scored a run in seven straight games, which is pretty impressive given that the Braves have only two other guys (Matt Olson and Drake Baldwin) hitting right now.

The Athletic’s Matt Gelb adds that Harper remains without a definitive return timetable, but it sounds like there’s a chance he’s back in Philadelphia’s lineup at some point later this week or early next week. The 32-year-old fantasy stalwart has been out since early June recovering from wrist inflammation. It’s a positive sign that he’s resumed hitting and going through his normal pregame routine again. He’s expected to take batting practice on Wednesday. There’s a chance he’s back later this week to face Atlanta, but that’s purely speculation at this point.

It’s a rare off day for Schanuel, who is spared from having to face Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet, after going 0-for-5 with a pair of strikeouts during Monday’s series-opening win. He went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer and four RBI during Sunday’s loss to the Astros. It’ll be LaMonte Wade Jr. taking over at first base with Gustavo Campero getting a turn in right field.

Arizona is going to give Naylor some extra time off, likely out of an abundance of caution, after exiting Monday’s contest with right shoulder soreness. The fact that he was in Tuesday’s original lineup is an encouraging sign. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. It’ll be a sizzling-hot Pavin Smith taking over for him at the hot corner.
