Markakis went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The steal was the first of the year for the 35-year-old, but the multi-hit effort was par for the course -- Markakis has six of them in his last 10 games, pushing his slash line on the season to .286/.358/.441.

EDGE Analysis
Entering the game in the sixth inning, Markakis homered off Seth Lugo in the seventh to tie the score 4-4. It was the 35-year-old's second homer in the last four games, and it lifted his slash line to .279/.358/.432. He now has eight homers and 48 RBI in 294 at-bats.

Markakis is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Markakis owns just a .567 OPS against lefties this season and is 3-for-18 (.167) in his career against Mets starter Steven Matz, so he will not start Saturday with Matz on the bump for the Mets. Johan Camargo will get the start in right field in Markakis' place.

Markakis went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Sunday in the Braves' 15-1 triumph over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Markakis was one of seven Braves to finish with multiple hits in the blowout victory, a welcome sight after he was stuck in an 3-for-18 skid over his previous five games. The veteran isn't a premium power source, but his favorable placement in a stellar Atlanta lineup should continue to yield plenty of RBI opportunities.

Markakis went 4-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Monday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
His two-run shot in the eighth inning capped a 13-run explosion for Atlanta. Markakis hadn't gone yard in over a month and hadn't had a multi-hit performance since May 25, and on the season the 35-year-old is now slashing .276/.365/.425 with five homers and 33 RBI in 66 games.

Markakis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Markakis will head to the bench for only the fourth time this season after going 1-for-3 with a triple, two runs scored and a walk in Saturday's victory. The veteran owns a .546 OPS versus left-handed pitchers this season, which likely explains why he's being rested in favor of Johan Camargo (.775 OPS versus lefties) with southpaw Matthew Boyd on the bump for Detroit.

Markakis is not in Thursday's lineup against the Giants, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran started 48 of the first 50 games of the season, but he will head to the bench for Thursday's day game. Charlie Culberson gets a rare start in right field against southpaw Madison Bumgarner.

Markakis went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Thursday's rout of the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran outfielder continues to thrive in Atlanta. Markakis is now slashing .299/.393/.461 through 44 games with four homers, 25 RBI and 28 runs, and while he isn't matching his pace from last year's explosive first half, his performance has been remarkably similar to his overall numbers from 2018.
