    The Atlanta Braves offense has not been what many thought it would be this season, and while the offense has been carried by guys like Marcell Ozuna and Jarred Kelenic at times, it's still waiting for the full-fledged emergence of Austin Riley and Matt Olson.

    Riley has been better recently, hitting .289 in the month of June and .276 here through the early portions of July after only hitting .234 the first few months of the season. It's been a bit slower for Olson to get going, though.

    While it looked like Olson was close to heating up in May when he hit .270, he dropped to .255 in June and even lower thus far in July. He's got 13 home runs so far and a .239 average overall, but placed in the order behind Riley and ahead of Ozuna, if 3-4-5 can get going, the whole offense will take a different feel.
