Braves' Nick Allen: Back in action Sunday
Allen (hand) will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Allen had been held out of the lineup for the past two days due to swelling on the knuckle of his right middle finger after he was hit by a pitch Thursday. The two days off appear to have provided sufficient time for Allen to heal up. The 26-year-old sports a .243/.308/.271 slash line in 48 games this season.

Allen (hand) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox.

Braves' Nick Allen: X-rays come back clean
X-rays on Allen's hand returned negative after he was forced to leave Thursday's game against the Phillies, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Braves' Nick Allen: Resting for front end of twin bill
Allen is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Phillies.
Allen had started in every game dating back to April 23, so he'll get an overdue breather in Atlanta's first contest of the day before presumably returning to the lineup for the nightcap. Luke Williams will step in at shortstop for Allen in the early game.

Braves' Nick Allen: Swipes sixth bag
Allen went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Red Sox.
The 26-year-old shortstop swiped his sixth bag of the year, although it's taken him 10 attempts to get there. Allen has taken over the starting job for Atlanta primarily due to his defense -- he ranks in the 100th percentile in fielding range, per Statcast -- but he's providing a smidge of fantasy value in deeper formats with a .260/.324/.293 slash line, 10 RBI and 11 runs over 40 games.

Braves' Nick Allen: Three hits in Monday's win
Allen went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's win over the Rockies.
The 26-year-old led Atlanta in hits on a night when the team took advantage of Coors Field to rack up 14 knocks in total. Allen remains a glove-first shortstop, but he's provided more offense than expected this season to supplant Orlando Arcia as the starter, slashing .292/.352/.338 through 21 games with four steals, four RBI and seven runs.

Braves' Nick Allen: Out of Tuesday's lineup
Allen is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.
Allen started the previous four games but will take a seat Tuesday after going 1-for-12 with a walk and five strikeouts during that span. Orlando Arcia will step in at shortstop against St. Louis righty Andre Pallante.

Braves' Nick Allen: Getting afternoon off
Allen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.
Allen had started each of Atlanta's last four games and appears to have overtaken Orlando Arcia as the team's primary shortstop, though the latter will get the start Wednesday in a day game after a night game. Over 38 plate appearances on the season, Allen is hitting .306 and has stolen four bases in five attempts, though a .407 BABIP has helped prop up his batting average.

Braves' Nick Allen: Swipes fourth bag
Allen went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Blue Jays.
The 26-year-old continues to make his case to be Atlanta's starting shortstop ahead of Orlando Arcia. Allen is batting .313 (10-for-32) through 10 games with four steals in four attempts, while Arcia is batting just .208 (5-for-24) in his seven outings.

Braves' Nick Allen: Getting third consecutive start
Allen will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Blue Jays.
The playing time at shortstop has tilted in favor of Allen lately, with the 26-year-old picking up his fourth start in five games after going 4-for-10 with a double, two runs and a stolen base over his prior three starts. The owner of a .213/.258/.287 slash line over parts of four seasons in the majors, Allen has provided most of his value on the defensive end during his career, but his improved production at the dish to begin his time in Atlanta looks to have at least temporarily vaulted him ahead of Orlando Arcia on the depth chart.

Braves' Nick Allen: Remains on bench Wednesday
Allen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
Allen will hit the bench for the second game in a row after he ended a recent four-game run as Atlanta's starting shortstop on a down note by striking out in all three of his plate appearances in a 4-0 loss to the Marlins last Saturday. Orlando Arcia, meanwhile, went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored in his return to the lineup in Tuesday's 7-5 win and will be in the starting nine again Wednesday. Arcia's longer track record at the big-league level looks like it might be enough to keep him ahead of Allen on the depth chart for now, despite a poor start to the season.

Braves' Nick Allen: Credits better eyesight for start
Allen is wearing goggles this season to correct an astigmatism which he said was a particular issue for him during night games, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
The 26-year-old came into the season with a career .209/.254/.283 slash line in the majors, but he's gone a surprising 5-for-18 (.278) to begin his Atlanta tenure. Allen's defense might be enough on its own for him to supplant Orlando Arcia on a permanent basis as the team's starting shortstop, but if he can supply more consistent offense it would make his case that much stronger.

Braves' Nick Allen: Heads to bench after four starts
Allen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.
He'll retreat to the bench after going 4-for-14 with a double, a walk, two stolen bases, an RBI and a run while starting at shortstop in each of the past four games. Allen had been expected to fill a utility role for Atlanta, but he appears to be getting a legitimate look as the everyday shortstop while Orlando Arcia has produced a .154/.154/.154 slash line through four games. Arcia is back in the lineup Sunday, but his hold on the starting job appears tenuous at best.

Braves' Nick Allen: Third straight start
Allen is starting at shortstop and batting eighth in Friday's game against the Marlins.
It's the third straight start for Allen, who has three hits and two stolen bases in the first two of those starts. He could be making a push to take the starting job away from Orlando Arcia.

Braves' Nick Allen: Two hits in second straight start
Allen went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Dodgers.
Atlanta's entire lineup has struggled out of the gates en route to an 0-7 start, and while Orlando Arcia's lack of offense has been far from the biggest problem, the veteran has gone 2-for-13 (.54) with zero extra-base hits and five strikeouts in four appearances to begin the year. That's opened the door for Allen to get a look, and the former Athletic has responded with three hits and two steals while making two straight starts at shortstop. Allen is better known for his glove than his bat, but the same could be said for Arcia, and the former is four years younger. It's unlikely Atlanta will give up on Arcia that quickly, but his disappointing .625 OPS in 2024 may have undermined his job security more than anyone expected.

Braves' Nick Allen: Draws start Friday
Allen is starting at shortstop and batting eighth against the Padres on Friday.
Allen didn't see the field on Opening Day, but he'll get his first start of the 2025 season Friday while Orlando Arcia retreats to the dugout. Allen appeared in 41 regular-season games for the Athletics in 2024 and slashed .175/.216/.247 with one home run and four RBI across 105 plate appearances before being traded to Atlanta in November.

Braves' Nick Allen: Could be favorite for bench spot
Allen's defense at shortstop makes him the likeliest choice for a bench spot on Atlanta's initial 26-man roster, Justin Toscano of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
The team's starters rarely get a day or even an at-bat off, so Allen's lack of offense isn't a big impediment to him winning the job if manager Brian Snitker is purely looking for the best defensive option. Allen has shown stolen-base ability in the minors and posted some PCL-inflated slash line promise at Triple-A Las Vegas in the A's system, but his .209/.254/.283 career line over 760 big-league plate appearances offers an accurate portrait of his fantasy upside should the 26-year-old find his way into consistent playing time.

Braves' Nick Allen: Traded to Atlanta
Atlanta acquired Allen from the Athletics on Monday in exchange for Jared Johnson.
Allen, 26, has managed just a .209/.254/.283 batting line over parts of three seasons at the major-league level. He does have a reputation as a solid glove at shortstop, although he came in at negative-2 Outs Above Average during his 41 games with the Athletics in 2024. Allen offers an alternative at shortstop to Orlando Arcia, who is coming off a disappointing season, but ultimately Allen should be more of a depth option.
