"Braves manager Bobby Cox sat a struggling Nate McLouth Sunday afternoon, even against right-hander Chris Volstad. McLouth has failed to produce in his return from the disabled list and done little to show the Braves he's the answer for center field down the stretch. They have been keeping a close eye on them as they determine who to go after at the July 31 trading deadline.

McLouth went 1-for-13 in his first four games back from the disabled list (concussion). His sole hit was a broken-bat single on Wednesday against the Padres. He has no RBIs while gone 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position in the first two games of the Florida series, including a groundout with the bases loaded and one out in the eighth inning on Saturday night. He's hitting only .169 on the season."
