Kenley Jansen Throws Bullpen Session Monday

Atlanta Braves closer Kenley Jansen (heart) went through a bullpen session on Monday, according to David O'Brien of The Athletic. Jansen is eligible to return from the 15-day injured list on Tuesday.

Hitter Advanced Metrics Leaders - Hard Hit% for Week 14

The last time we examined hard-hit rate leaders was back in Week 3. A lot has changed since then, needless to say.
