BOSTON, MA - MAY 26: Austin Riley #27 of the Atlanta Braves looks on during batting practice prior to the game between the Atlanta Braves and the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on Tuesday, May 26, 2026 in Boston, Massachusetts.

The Braves are giving two struggling infielders a break on Saturday, though for Kim this is becoming the new normal, as the $20 million shortstop is sitting for the third straight day with Jorge Mateo simply outplaying him so far this season. It’s only been 12 games for Kim, but he did not look like an even remotely replacement-level player in those 12 games in any aspect of the game. Austin has been better (albeit streaky) in May, so this seems like more of a regular day off in that regard, as we hope for an explosive Summer from the third baseman who has been known for those.
Elsewhere, the Reds have shifted their lineup a decent bit, going from facing the righty Holmes yesterday to the lefty Perez today. The only constants are their franchise cornerstone Elly De La Cruz in the two hole and catcher Tyler Stephenson batting eighth.
