  • Three hits in nightcap
    D'Arnaud went 3-for-4 with an RBI in the second game of Monday's doubleheader split with the Padres.

    Advice: The veteran catcher sat out Sunday's game and Monday's matinee after taking a foul tip off his facemask Friday, but d'Arnaud cleared the concussion protocol and looked none the worse for wear in his return to the lineup. He's slashing .274/.350/.509 through 120 plate appearances this season with five homers and 17 RBI, but with Sean Murphy (oblique) expected to begin a rehab assignment this week, d'Arnaud's stint as Atlanta's No. 1 backstop could come to a close by the end of the month.

  • d’Arnaud returns with three hits Monday
    Travis d’Arnaud went 3-for-4 with an RBI against the Padres on Monday.



    Advice: D’Arnaud took a foul ball off the mask in last Friday’s game and subsequently sat out of Saturday and Sunday’s games. He was cleared of a possible concussion and returned to the lineup with a three-hit game. D’Arnaud’s time as Atlanta’s primary catcher might be coming to a close soon as the injured Sean Murphy is nearing a rehab assignment.

  • Back in lineup for second game
    D'Arnaud (head) will catch and bat fifth in the second game of Monday's doubleheader versus the Padres.

    Advice: D'Arnaud hasn't played since being removed from last Friday's game due to dizziness, but he passed concussion tests and is back in the lineup following a couple days of rest. He has an .836 OPS with five home runs over 36 games with Atlanta this season. Rotowire.com Monday, 1:50 pm
     
  • Notches rare steal
    Grandal went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Cubs.

    Advice: The steal was Grandal's first -- and first attempt -- since 2022, and it was just his 13th career theft. The catcher is off to a middling start to his season after missing the first month-plus due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He's slashing .211/.231/.395 with two home runs, eight RBI, four runs scored and a double over 39 plate appearances while adding a 1:7 BB:K. Grandal is handling the starting job at catcher for the Pirates over Joey Bart. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:30 pm
     
  • Returning for Monday's nightcap
    D'Arnaud (head) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Padres but is expected to start behind the plate in Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Advice: The veteran catcher reported dizziness after taking a foul ball off his mask Friday, but he's avoided a concussion and will return to action for Monday night's series finale. Chadwick Tromp is starting behind the plate Sunday and will do so again for Game 1 of the twin bill. Rotowire.com Sunday, 1:39 pm
     
  • Travis d’Arnaud (head) to start on Monday night
    The Braves plan to start Travis d’Arnaud behind the dish for the nightcap of Monday’s doubleheader against the Padres.

    Advice: The 35-year-old backstop took a foul ball off his mask on Friday night and wound up missing the remainder of the weekend. Expect Chadwick Tromp to start once again for the first game on Monday. Rotoworld Sunday, 1:18 pm
     
  • Travis d’Arnaud (head) out Sunday vs. Padres
    Travis d’Arnaud is not in the lineup for Sunday’s tilt against the Padres.

    Advice: It will be another day off for d’Arnaud after being removed from Friday’s game. Chadwick Tromp will get the start behind the plate in his absence. For now, d’Arnaud should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Sunday, 12:06 pm
     
  • Receiving Sunday off
    Stephenson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Stephenson went 5-for-11 with a homer and three RBI in the first three games of the series but will receive a breather in the finale. Luke Maile will take over behind the plate for Cincinnati. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:49 am
