Olson hits solo home run in Braves’ shutout
Matt Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in the Braves’ 4-0 win over the Mets on Saturday. Olson followed Marcell Ozuna’s solo homer in the fourth inning, going back-to-back off Tylor Megill, breaking a 14-game home run drought for the slugger. Hopefully, it’s the start of a better second half stretch, with hits in each of his last four games. The 30-year-old first baseman is slashing .227/.304/.396 with 14 homers and 45 RBI across 431 plate appearances.
Mets acquire Winker from Nationals
Mets acquired OF Jesse Winker from the Nationals for RHP Tyler Stuart. This trade was reported late Saturday by Jeff Passan and made official Sunday after Winker cleared his physical. The 30-year-old has had his best season since his days with the Reds with a ..257/.374/.419 slash along with 11 homers, 14 steals and 45 RBI. He should get a chance to play against right-handed pitching and does offer some fantasy appeal.
