What makes you think that?
He played terrific defense and held his own at the plate.
Because he is so young and this is just his first taste of the bigs. It's not hard to see them take it slow or him stumbling some and getting sent to AAA.
I don't know the Braves organization that well though so it may be one that gets decided closer to next year.
Also, other players have held their own in their first taste of the bigs then struggled down the road.
Dustin Ackley comes to mind...He had a better ops+ his first year over a bigger sample size.
Swanson had a 380 babip which propelled his 300 ave, however he did have pretty good walk rates and a not terrible k rate...
