Shakes off illness
Alvarez (illness) has appeared in Triple-A Gwinnett's last four games, going 8-for-17 with two home runs, two walks, two stolen bases, six RBI and six runs.
ANALYSIS
Alvarez missed five days' worth of action while recovering from a bout with pneumonia, but he's shown no signs of being slowed down by the illness since rejoining the Gwinnett lineup. Though Alvarez struggled mightily in his first exposure to the majors back in July, he's continued to wield a hot bat at Gwinnett since making the jump to the International League in June. Over 199 plate appearances at Triple-A, Alvarez is slashing .311/.422/.521 with nine home runs and eight stolen bases.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opening for MLB debut?
According to David O'Brien of The Athletic, there's a chance Alvarez is called up by Atlanta in the near future since Ozzie Albies is headed to the injured list with a wrist injury.
ANALYSIS
The club doesn't have a clear replacement for Albies already on the big-league roster, as the only middle infielder besides starting shortstop Orlando Arcia is journeyman Zack Short, who has a .478 OPS this season. Alvarez is one of the organization's top prospects and has crushed Triple-A pitching since being promoted in June with a 1.011 OPS in 27 games. If called up by Atlanta, the 21-year-old would likely remain at his natural position of shortstop, which would push Arcia to second base.
