Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opening for MLB debut?
SSAtlanta Braves  AAA
July 21, 2024
According to David O'Brien of The Athletic, there's a chance Alvarez is called up by Atlanta in the near future since Ozzie Albies is headed to the injured list with a wrist injury.
Analysis
The club doesn't have a clear replacement for Albies already on the big-league roster, as the only middle infielder besides starting shortstop Orlando Arcia is journeyman Zack Short, who has a .478 OPS this season. Alvarez is one of the organization's top prospects and has crushed Triple-A pitching since being promoted in June with a 1.011 OPS in 27 games. If called up by Atlanta, the 21-year-old would likely remain at his natural position of shortstop, which would push Arcia to second base.
