Dansby Swanson

Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks, a run scored, and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Phillies. The steal was his eighth of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Swanson has not been the same player as he was earlier in the season since returning from the injured list, and he is no longer hitting near the top of a talented Atlanta lineup.

Dansby Swanson has been activated off of the 10-day injured list. Adam Duvall was sent to Triple-A as a subsequent move.

Fantasy Impact

Swanson was slashing .265/.330/.468 before the injury, four weeks ago. Swanson will likely need a week or so before he gets back into his groove. With the playoffs coming around, if you are needing shortstop depth Swanson can certainly fill that void as he is available in roughly 46-percent of all leagues.

Dansby Swanson (foot) will begin a rehab assignment with Lowe-A Rome on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Swanson has been sidelined since July 23rd and is on track to rejoin the Braves when rosters expand in September. He will start at designated hitter for the first game. Adeiny Hechavarria and Charlie Culberson will continue to start at short stop until Swason returns.

Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson has been off his feet most of last week per doctor’s orders and remains without a timetable for a return, according to Braves beat reporter David O'Brien on Twitter.

Fantasy Impact

Swanson has been on the injured list since July 27 with a right foot contusion that was considered minor at the time, but he has not been progressing in his rehab and is restricted to fielding ground balls on his knees for now.

Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson is not heading out with the team on their current road trip and will instead stay behind in Atlanta to continue to receive treatment on his bruised foot, according to a report from Mark Bowman on Twitter.

Fantasy Impact

Swanson initially hoped to spend only the minimum 10 days on the injured list when he first landed there, but his bruised foot is apparently not healing as quickly as expected. The Braves are in Minnesota for three games before heading to Miami for a four-game set, and it sounds like Swanson will not be joining them until they return to Atlanta for a series against the Mets, at the earliest. Look for an update on his status later in the week.
