PLAYER OF THE MONTH: Gwinnett infielder Luis Marte was impossible to ignore. For the month of July (26 games) he hit .380 (38 hits) with 16 run scored, 15 RBI and a pair of home runs. Marte hit .212 his first two months of 2018, but .350 in June-July. He was moved up to AAA on July 12, In 17 games with the Stripers, mostly batting leadoff, he scorched the IL for a .389 average. Marte, 24, began his career in the Rangers' system at age 17, but was released by Texas on May 13 with a .223 average. Braves signed him on May 23 and his revival began.
PITCHER OF THE MONTH: Left-handed reliever Corbin Clouse. The 23-year-old, stolen in the 27th round of the 2016 draft, was the best on a shaky Mississippi team. He pitched in nine games in July, posting a 3-1 record with a save. He had an 0.77 ERA, 11.2 IP with 19 K and 5 BB.
