Atlanta Braves SS Nick Allen is batting .364, including a double and an RBI in the series finale against the Dodgers, and while not qualified, that batting average does currently lead the Braves leaving many to wonder if he should overtake Orlando Arcia as the everyday shortstop.
"He's like the only guy you're not mad at, he's been pretty good," says Andy 'Bunker. "I don't know if he's the new shortstop, I think you ride the hot hands. He's not going to bat .360 all season, but if he bats that for two weeks start him and when he falls off put Arcia back out there."
