Fantasy Impact:
Jarvis will head up to the bigs for the second time, as he appeared in two games for the Braves earlier this season, going 1-for-5 with a couple of strikeouts at the plate. Jarvis has had plenty of success at the plate in Triple-A this year, posting an impressive .313/.406/.461 slash line with 29 extra-base hits and 32 steals across 76 games. Given the Braves' need for steady production from shortstop, Jarvis could be given a shot at regular playing time, at least on the strong side of a platoon. Veteran slugger Rowdy Tellez was designated for assignment to make room for Jarvis on the roster.
