Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson, who is currently leading the National League in home runs with 29, is looking to extend his lead as the second half of the season kicks off on Friday. Olson has strung together a ridiculous first half of the year, slashing .254/.358/.569 with 29 home runs, 72 RBI, and one stolen base over 343 at-bats. His power has been prodigious up to this point, smashing at least eight home runs in every month (except July) while notching four multi-homer contests. He was white-hot at the dish in the last 15 games before the All-Star break as well, with a .367/.424/.883 batting line to go along with eight home runs and 20 RBI over 60 at-bats. The 29-year-old slugger is second to only Shohei Ohtani, who has 32 home runs, for the MLB lead. There's no reason to think Olson's power surge will slow down, either, as the Braves host the Chicago White Sox for a three-game set starting on Friday. Chicago's probably starters are Michael Kopech, Lance Lynn, and Dylan Cease, who are all right-handed pitchers. Olson has hit 25 of his 29 home runs off right-handed pitching this season.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
