Atlanta Braves: Dansby Swanson is once again key to offensive potential

Going into the 2019 season I wrote about how Dansby Swanson and Ender Inciarte were key to the Atlanta Braves' success offensively.

I no longer have the hope that Inciarte can be a difference-maker at the top of the lineup, but I do think he could be a key contributor in the eighth spot and can thrive there.

Assuming Atlanta finds a big bat to replace Donaldson in the lineup, the Braves still need another big threat in the lineup to lengthen it out a bit.

Nobody wants to see Nick Markakis batting fifth all year for Atlanta again.
