Jim Jarvis - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Settling in at shortstop Jarvis will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Padres.

Impact Jarvis will cover shortstop for the fifth game in a row, with three of those starts coming against righties and two coming versus lefties. Since being called up from Triple-A Gwinnett on July 2, Jarvis has posted a strong .297/.333/.459 slash line with one home run, four RBI and five runs in 11 games and has provided solid defense in the middle infield. So long as he keeps hitting, Jarvis should be able to hold down a near-everyday role at shortstop while Mauricio Dubon is needed in the outfield as long as at least one of Ronald Acuna (hamstring) and Mike Yastrzemski (elbow) remain on the shelf.

Impact Jarvis extended Atlanta's lead to 5-2 in the fourth inning with his two-run, 397-foot blast off Cam Sanders, the first homer of his big-league career. Jarvis has seen regular playing time at shortstop since he was recalled from Triple-A in early July. He's gone 6-for-19 across five games after slashing .313/.406/.461 with six homers across 348 plate appearances in the minors this year.

Sitting after three straight starts Jarvis is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Jarvis had started at shortstop in each of Atlanta's last three games, but after going 2-for-10 with a walk and an RBI during that stretch, he'll retreat to the bench while Jorge Mateo covers the position Wednesday. Jarvis and Mateo will likely share time at the position until Ronald Acuna's (hamstring) eventual return from the 10-day injured list allows Atlanta to move Mauricio Dubon from the corner outfield and into an everyday role at shortstop.

JULY 2 • SI.COM

Back in big leagues Atlanta recalled Jarvis from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

Impact Jarvis has had a breakout season this year at Gwinnett, slashing .313/.406/.461 with six home runs, 32 stolen bases and a 46:55 BB:K over 76 games. He was up briefly with Atlanta in May, going 1-for-5 at the plate. Shortstop is Jarvis' main position, but he can also handle second base and third base. Jarvis would have some fantasy potential -- particularly in the stolen base department -- if he receives regular playing time, but there's no guarantee that will happen.

Receives first big-league call-up Atlanta selected Jarvis's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Outfielder Jose Azocar was designated for assignment in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Jarvis, who will be making his MLB debut if and when he gets into a game. Though he's primarily been used at shortstop during his minor-league career, Jarvis has experience at second base and third base and is likely to serve as a utility infielder for Atlanta. Jarvis showed excellent contact skills, plate discipline and speed during his time with Gwinnett this season, posting a .305/.418/.445 batting line while notching 15 steals in 17 attempts over 153 plate appearances.
