Jim Jarvis making immediate debut at short for Braves’ series finale vs. Mariners

After he was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett Wednesday morning, Jim Jarvis will immediately be making his major league debut for the Braves in Wednesday’s series finale in Seattle.

Jarvis, acquired from the Detroit Tigers just before last year’s trade deadline, will hit ninth and play shortstop.

He’s gotten off to a hot start in Gwinnett this season, slashing .305/.418/.445 with four homers, six doubles and 20 RBIs in 33 games. Now he gets an opportunity with the big league squad to carve out a role in the infield, which will be revamped in the coming weeks with the addition of Ha-Seong Kim.

Michael Harris II is back in left field for the series finale — a promising sign for the health of his quad — and hitting cleanup. Mauricio Dubon is in center once again and hitting fifth while Mike Yastrzemski is back in the seven hole and handling right field.

It’ll also be another Sean Murphy day behind the plate. He’s hitting eighth, letting Drake Baldwin DH in the leadoff spot.

This will be Mariners starter Bryan Woo’s first time facing the Braves. As such, the only five players with previous at-bats against him are players who were added to the Braves’ roster this offseason. Dubon, a previous division rival of Woo’s from his time in , has 11 of the roster’s 25 at-bats against the righty. He’s 4-for-11 (.364) with a double against Woo. Yastrzemski is 2-for-8 with the only homer and only three RBIs.
