Jurickson Profar Goes on Paternity List
The Atlanta Braves announced that they have placed outfielder Jurickson Profar (personal) on the paternity list. Profar could miss up to three days, which may rule him out for the final two games of the Braves' series against the Chicago Cubs. The team has off Thursday before opening a series against the Seattle Mariners on Friday. In the meantime, Jake Fraley or Eli White could take over in left field for Profar, who went on a tear in August. The switch-hitting 32-year-old slashed .295/.428/.598 with nine homers, 26 RBI, 27 runs scored, and 24 walks in 29 games last month. Profar, who served an 80-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs earlier this season, has taken 271 trips to the plate and hit .258/.362/.472 with 12 HRs, 37 RBI, 44 runs, and eight stolen bases.
