Heredia is the best option at the moment in CF.

Who would have thought a few weeks ago that the Atlanta Braves would be best positioned in Guillermo Heredia was the everyday center fielder?

So far though, that has been the exact case as he is hitting over .300 and providing timely hits to go along with it.

Truth be told though, it is liable to end at any moment so the Atlanta Braves should ride the wave as long as they can but when it starts to crash, quickly jump off and pivot back to Ender or Pache if they are both healthy.

However, it should be noted Heredia is doing a fine outstanding job patrolling center at the moment and not allowing the opposition to have two pitcher spots at the bottom of the Atlanta Braves lineup.

So the Atlanta Braves still lose the series against the New York Mets despite the victory on Wednesday night, but hopefully brighter days are ahead this weekend as the Pittsburgh Pirates come to Atlanta.

The Braves need to win at least 3 out of four and start slowly gaining ground not only in the NL East but on the entire National league as well.

Despite the lowly play thus far, the Braves are only 3 games out and 1 great run from taking back over the division. Let’s hope this win on Wednesday starts the propel back towards the top.
