Markakis gets another day off, Hechavarria starts again against Marlins – Talking Chop

Austin Riley continues to get moved up the lineup, however the reason for this specific relocation is noteworthy because Nick Markakis, who hasnt gotten a hit in a game considering that August, gets another day off. Another lineup move of note is that Adeiny Hechavarria gets the start at 2nd once again with Johan Camargo having a hard time at the plate. The disadvantage offensively with this lineup configuration is that Ender Inciarte complete the lineup, although the difference of late between him and Markakis at the plate recently has been extremely little bit.

For the Marlins, the highlight of their lineup is their latest acquisition in Starling Marte who they acquired at the trade due date and will be batting 2nd this night. Old pal Matt Joyce is batting clean-up for Miami.

The Braves lineup against the Marlins for the 2nd video game of their series has an intriguing appearance to it. The leading four hitters, especially with Ozzie Albies still out, shouldnt be a surprise at this moment with Acuna, Dansby, Freddie, and Ozuna occupying those spots.
