Losing work to Kim Allen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Impact As anticipated, Atlanta's waiver pickup of Ha-Seong Kim earlier in the week has resulted in Allen losing hold of his everyday role at shortstop. Kim will occupy the position for the second game in a row and will likely get an extended evaluation in September, leaving Allen to settle for limited playing time in a utility role. Allen offers strong defense at shortstop, but with a measly .534 OPS over 405 plate appearances on the season, he hasn't hit well enough to profile as a viable everyday player.

Set to lose starting job Allen went 1-for-4 in Monday's extra-inning loss to the Cubs, and over his last 13 games he's batting just .111 (3-for-27) with a 0:10 BB:K.

Impact The 26-year-old offers a good glove at shortstop, but Allen has never figured out how to hit big-league pitching and has a .534 OPS through 405 plate appearances this season, and a .536 OPS for his career. Atlanta claimed Ha-Seong Kim (back) off waivers from the Rays on Monday, and he's expected to take over as the team's starting shortstop once he's activated from the IL, which could happen as soon as Tuesday. Allen will likely be relegated to a late-inning defensive role after Kim joins the active roster.

Out of lineup again Thursday Allen is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Philadelphia.

Impact It's the second straight day and third time over the last six contests that Allen has began the game on the bench. Vidal Brujan has filled in at shortstop in all three of those tilts Allen has sat out, and Brujan will be at short and bat ninth in Thursday's series opener.

Receiving afternoon off Allen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Vidal Brujan will cover shortstop for the matinee contest while Allen rests after starting in each of Atlanta's last three games. Allen is a dependable defender at shortstop, but he's gone 0-for-16 at the plate over his last seven starts to bring his season-long batting line down to .220/.285/.249 across 394 plate appearances.

AUGUST 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Rare day off Allen is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.

Impact Allen's streak of 71 consecutive starts will end Saturday, as Vidal Brujan steps in to play shortstop and bat ninth. During that 71-game stretch, Allen slashed .211/.277/.240 with six doubles, 19 runs scored and nine RBI.

Tallies three hits in rout Allen went 3-for-4 with a double, a run and two RBI in Saturday's 10-1 win against Cleveland.

Impact Most of Atlanta's offense came from the bottom of the order -- the team's 5-through-9 hitters went a combined 10-for-22 with nine RBI. Allen was a big part of that, recording three knocks from the No. 9 slot while collecting two RBI, more than he had accumulated over his previous 23 games combined. Allen batted a meager .156 during that 23-game span, so he'll look to use Saturday's effort as a launching point for more success at the plate.

Nabs seventh steal Allen went 2-for-3 with a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Brewers.

Impact The shortstop's defense has kept him in the lineup, but Allen has contributed very little offensively to Atlanta's cause this season. He's slashing just .228/.298/.258 through 104 games with only nine extra-base hits, all doubles, along with seven steals, 18 RBI and 27 runs.

AUGUST 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Contributes base hit in loss Allen went 1-for-3 with a single in Sunday's 8-1 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Allen picked up his 47th consecutive start Sunday, but despite enjoying a stable role, he's struggled to provide much meaningful fantasy value this season. In addition to batting just .227 on the season, Allen has been a non-factor in most of the counting categories, contributing zero home runs, six stolen bases, 25 runs and 18 RBI over 95 games. The 26-year-old probably profiles best as a utility infielder, but his excellent defense at shortstop along with the lack of appealing alternatives within the organization should be enough to keep him atop the depth chart in Atlanta.
