Swisher is out of the lineup Saturday against the Indians.
EDGE Analysis
Swisher will sit for the second straight game as the Braves deploy Michael Bourn in left field against right-hander Jerad Eickhoff. Though Swisher is only hitting .227 in September, he's provided a .386 on-base percentage during the month, which should be good enough to keep him ahead of Bourn and Adonis Garcia on the depth chart.

Swisher went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 8-2 loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Swisher has started off September hot, going 5-for-13 (.385) with a double and two RBI in the month's first five games. He also has posted two multi-hit performances in that span. It remains to be seen whether the veteran first baseman will give way to younger players more often in the remaining weeks of the season.
