WASHINGTON, DC – APRIL 10: Ender Inciarte /

5. Ender Inciarte Continues to Heat up

Ender Inciarte is making a tough adjustment this season moving all over the lineup. Manager Brian Snitker is trying to find the best way to use Ender with Ozzie now hitting leadoff.

While I would argue Ender should remain at the top of the lineup the move makes sense paired with his struggles. Watching Inciarte over the last few games it is obvious he is starting to heat up.

Ender is hitting .269 a low mark for a high average hitter. It is still early in the season, however, and looking at his career slow starts aren’t uncommon for the center fielder.

Inciarte has the ability to make the Braves even better considering he is yet to heat up. He is going to raise his average and the .300 hitter the Braves are expecting him to be.

Moving him back to the top of the lineup once he heats up would be a wise move for Snitker. He will get on base at a high rate and paired with Ozzie could reek havoc on the bases.
