Player Outlook
A marriage made in baseball heaven, Matt Olson has done nothing but rake since Atlanta acquired him from Oakland in March of 2022. He turned it up to an even greater level in 2023, his second year with the organization, pacing all major-league hitters in home runs (54) and RBI (139) while registering the fourth-highest OPS in the bigs at .993. He finished in the 99th percentile in both average exit velocity and hard-hit rate and ranked in the 97th percentile in xSLG, all en route to a fourth-place finish for NL MVP. Olson enters his age-30 season firing on all cylinders and surrounded by one of the best supporting casts you can find. He again has a chance to lead the majors in homers and should feast on RBI opportunities as the locked-in cleanup man for the reigning National League East champions. With first base lacking some of the depth it had a decade ago, it's probably worth reaching for Olson in the opening rounds of drafts this spring.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Clubs 12th homer

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Yankees. His fourth-inning shot off Carlos Rodon helped chase the southpaw from the game as part of a three-homer, eight-XBH barrage from Atlanta. Olson's bat has come alive in June, and through 74 plate appearances on the month he's slashing .309/.365/.574 with four of his 12 long balls on the year and 10 of his 40 RBI.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: On base four times in loss

    Rotowire
    Olson went 3-for-3 with a walk, a double and two runs scored in Sunday's loss to the Rays. The first baseman extended his hitting streak to 10 games, and his extra-base hit streak to five games, with another impressive performance. Olson is batting .410 (16-for-39) over that 10-game stretch, pushing his slash line on the season to .261/.342/.471 with 11 homers and 38 RBI in 69 contests.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Belts 11th homer

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run in a 9-2 win against Tampa Bay on Saturday. Olson was part of a big fifth inning for Atlanta, swatting the team's third and final homer in the frame. The first baseman extended his hitting streak to nine contests, a stretch during which he is batting .361 (13-for-26) with two home runs and five RBI. Olson's 11 homers are second-most on Atlanta but are well off the pace of the 54 long balls he belted last season.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Swats homer No. 10

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Orioles. The first baseman spoiled Baltimore's combined shutout bid by taking Keegan Akin deep in the eighth inning. Olson has hit safely in six straight games, and over his last 16 contests he's slashing .328/.385/.586 with three of his 10 homers on the season.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Falls triple short of cycle

    Rotowire
    Olson went 3-for-5 with a home run, double, three RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Pirates. Olson's eighth-inning blast off Aroldis Chapman was a no-doubter over the right field wall, clearing the stadium and splashing down in the Allegheny River. Olson had previously added a two-run double and finished the game just a triple short of the cycle. Over his last 13 games, Olson has six multi-hit efforts, batting .308 with four homers, two doubles, 11 RBI and six runs scored in that span.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Goes deep in win

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-5 in Wednesday's win over the Cubs with a solo home run. Olson launched a two-out, solo homer in the top of the seventh to extend Atlanta's lead to seven runs, giving the first baseman his fourth long ball this month and seventh overall on the season. The veteran first baseman also added a single on the night, marking his ninth multi-hit performance of the campaign and fifth in his last nine games. He's now hit safely in eight of his last 10 contests, tallying three homers and eight RBI over that stretch.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Homers in first game of twin bill

    Rotowire
    Olson went 3-for-8 with a home run, a walk and two total RBI across both games of Monday's doubleheader split with San Diego. Olson did most of his damage in Game 1, swatting a solo homer and adding another RBI on a single. The first baseman has gotten off to a slow start this season with a .230/.332/.410 slash line and just six homers through 44 games after going deep a career-high 54 times last year. Olson has been perking up with the bat of late, though, hitting .393 (11-for-28) with two home runs and seven RBI over his past eight contests.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Finally snaps slump

    Rotowire
    Olson went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Friday's win over the Mets. Olson hit Atlanta's third and final homer during the third inning and it proved to be the game-winning blast. It was his first long ball since April 7, snapping an uncharacteristic 26-game skid. During that extended drought, he posted a .508 OPS with 30 strikeouts. On the year, Olson is slashing .202/.311/.372 with 13 extra-base hits and 18 RBI through 35 contests.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Few concerns about slump

    Rotowire
    Olson hasn't hit a home run in 18 straight games, slashing .167/.291/.242 over that stretch with three doubles, one triple and seven RBI, but he remains among the league leaders in key hitting metrics, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports. Despite the first baseman's lack of production in April, Olson sits in the 97th percentile in hard-hit rate and average exit velocity on the season, numbers comparable to what he posted during his career-best 2023 campaign. It seems only a matter of time before the 30-year-old gets dialed in and begins racking up hits and homers.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Swats third homer

    Rotowire
    Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks. The first baseman took Ryne Nelson deep to lead off the second inning and set Atlanta on its way to a 5-2 victory and a series sweep. Olson has picked up where he left off after slugging a career-high 54 homers in 2023, and through eight games this season he's batting .303 (10-for-33) with five doubles, three home runs and eight RBI.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Three doubles on 30th birthday

    Rotowire
    Olson went 3-for-5 with three doubles, a run scored and three RBI in Friday's 9-3 win over the Phillies. The first baseman celebrated his 30th birthday in style by rapping out two-baggers in three straight at-bats, including two in a seven-run eighth inning for Atlanta. Olson set career highs last year by batting .283 with 54 homers and 139 RBI, and he's off to a quick start in 2024 as he looks to put together another stellar campaign.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Launches first spring homer

    Rotowire
    Olson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins. The first baseman crushed a Pablo Lopez offering in the first inning for his first long ball of the spring. Olson set an Atlanta franchise record with 139 RBI in 2023 while adding a career-high 54 homers, and the 29-year-old is a safe bet to reach triple-digit RBI for the fourth straight season while batting in the heart of one of the most potent lineups in MLB.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Caps historic season with 139 RBI

    Rotowire
    Olson went 1-for-1 with a two-RBI single in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Nationals. Olson drove in Atlanta's first two runs of the game with a single in the first and then was replaced by Nicky Lopez. His base knock extended the modern franchise record to 139 RBI. He led all of baseball in RBI and home runs. The 29-year-old concludes the 2023 regular season slashing .283/.389/.604 and posted his third straight campaign with at least 100 RBI.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Goes yard in Thursday's win

    Rotowire
    Olson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Cubs. Olson put Atlanta ahead in the first inning with his blast. He's up to 54 homers this year, 11 of which have come in September, a month in which he's batting .343 with 24 RBI over 26 games. For the year, the first baseman has a .281/.387/.605 slash line with 136 RBI, 126 runs scored and one stolen base through 159 contests. If he remains in the lineup each day for the three-game series versus the Nationals, he'll achieve his fourth campaign of playing in every contest.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Four hits in doubleheader

    Rotowire
    Olson went 4-for-8 with a double, a walk, one RBI and two runs scored over both games of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Nationals. Olson did most of his damage in a 3-for-5 performance in the nightcap. The first baseman has been dialed in at the plate in September, batting .352 (31-for-88) with 10 home runs and three doubles over 23 contests this month. He's up to a .281/.388/.606 slash line with 53 homers, 133 RBI, 124 runs scored, one stolen base and 27 doubles through 156 games overall.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Sets franchise record

    Rotowire
    Olson's home run during Saturday's win over the Marlins was his 52nd of the season, setting a new franchise record for Atlanta, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports. Andruw Jones held the old record of 51, which he set in 2005. Olson leads the majors this season in both homers and RBI (129), and the biggest obstacle to him winning the NL MVP Award in 2023 could be the historic numbers put up by teammate Ronald Acuna (calf), who sits three long balls short of the first 40-60 season in baseball history.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Goes deep again Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, a walk and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Phillies. The 29-year-old slugger was at it again Tuesday, launching a solo shot of Zack Wheeler in the fourth inning. The homer was Olson's 51st on the campaign, tying Atlanta's franchise record, which was set by Andruw Jones in 2005. Olson is now seven clear of Pete Alonso and Shohei Ohtani for the MLB lead in long balls, while Atlanta is on the cusp of clinching an NL East title.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Reaches 50 homers

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-3 with two homers and four RBI in Monday's 7-5 loss to the Phillies. Olson got Atlanta on the board with a three-run homer off Michael Lorenzen in the third inning before adding a solo blast, his 50th of the season, in the sixth. Olson has been on a sensational run of late -- he's hit safely in nine straight games, going 17-for-33 (.515) with seven homers and 15 RBI in that span. He leads the league in both homers and RBI (127) while batting a career-best .279 with a 1.000 OPS through 645 plate appearances this season.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Posts fifth straight multi-hit game

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-3 with a walk and three RBI in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Pirates. With the pair of base knocks, Olson closed out the weekend with his fifth multi-hit effort in a row. He slashed .611/.682/1.167 overall during that five-game stretch with three home runs, seven RBI and seven runs and is now batting a career-best .277 on the season. Though teammate Ronald Acuna remains the heavy frontrunner for the National League MVP honors, Olson (48 home runs, 121 RBI and 112 runs in 142 games) has done his part to push the likes of Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman for a top-three spot in the balloting.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Stays hot Saturday

    Rotowire
    Olson went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 8-4 loss to the Pirates. Olson has five homers and five multi-hit efforts during his six-game hitting streak. Unfortunately, all of those homers have been of the solo variety. The first baseman is up to 48 long balls, 118 RBI and 112 runs scored this year, all career highs, and he's added a stolen base, 25 doubles, three triples and a .275/.381/.603 slash line through 141 contests.
