Eli White

Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker said that outfielder Eli White will play right field for the team with Ronald Acuna Jr. (Achilles) on the 10-day injured list. White made the start in right field and was hitting in the eight-hole for Wednesday's game against the hosting Kansas City Royals and left-hander Angel Zerpa. It's a massive downgrade for the Braves offense, as White is batting .255 (47-for-184) with four home runs, 18 RBI, 29 runs scored and seven stolen bases on the year. For fantasy managers in NL-only leagues, though, White becomes an interesting pickup with a tick up in playing time coming for as long as Acuna remains out. In what has quickly become a lost season, the Braves won't have much incentive to rush Acuna back into the fold. If White struggles, Jared Kelenic could get some run in right field for the Braves, too.
