Orlando Arcia likely to be Braves Opening Day SS

Orlando Arcia is likely to be the Braves Opening Day shortstop after Vaughn Grissom was optioned to Triple-A.

Fantasy Impact

Arcia was primarily a second baseman last season for Atlanta, only appearing in one game at shortstop in 2022. It's unclear if the Braves plan to stick with Arcia throughout the 2023 season, but it looks like he'll get a chance to earn an everyday role out of the gate. He hit .244/.316/.416 in 68 games last season.

Orlando Arcia smacks home run on Monday

Orlando Arcia went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI during Atlanta's win over Washington on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Arcia popped a 104.5 mph, 411 ft. home run in the sixth inning to score Marcell Ozuna and put an exclamation point on the score, 8-0. He's been seeing some more playing time recently with Ozzie Albies on the shelf but doesn't offer much for fantasy managers as the season comes to a close. Overall he is hitting .242/.317/.412 with 8 home runs and 26 RBI over 182 at-bats.

Orlando Arica lands on the 10-day IL Wednesday

Orlando Arica was placed on the 10-day IL Wednesday with a strained left hamstring.

Fantasy Impact

Arica is slashing .243/.321/.405 with seven home runs and 26 RBIs in 56 games this season. He has made the most of those starts at second base with Ozzie Albies injured, and figures to likely lose playing time to Vaughn Grissom when Arica is eligible to return.

Orlando Arcia homers on Tuesday

Orlando Arcia went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI during Atlanta's win over Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Arcia crushed a 104.7 mph, 415 ft. two-run homer in the bottom of the fifth inning to put the Braves ahead 8-1. He has cooled down considerably from earlier in the season but may see more opportunities at second base now that Robinson Cano has been designated for assignment. Arcia is hitting .239/.314/.387 with six home runs and 24 RBI over 155 at-bats.

Orlando Arcia homers on Friday

Orlando Arcia went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI during Atlanta's win over the Los Angeles Angels on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Arcia entered the game in the third inning after Robinson Cano left the game with dizziness. Shohei Ohtani had been shutting the Braves out over six innings until the floodgates opened in the seventh inning, starting with a Matt Olson home run and then followed up by Arcia's blast. He does have two home runs over his last three games but has been seeing spotty playing time since Cano was acquired. On the season Arcia is hitting .256/.295/.366 with five home runs and 21 RBI over 43 games.
