    • Not in Monday's lineup
      D'Arnaud is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: Sean Murphy is making his long-awaited return from the injured list Monday, so d'Arnaud will begin this one on the bench. It's likely that Murphy won't shoulder too big of a workload initially, so expect d'Arnaud to continue seeing plenty of reps. The 35-year-old should retain value in two-catcher leagues even with his playing time expected to dip. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:20 am
       
    • Not starting Sunday
      Bethancourt is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Arizona.

      Advice: Bethancourt started behind home plate in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Arizona, going 1-for-3 with two strikeouts. Nick Fortes will serve as the catcher Sunday and bat ninth against Diamondbacks left-hander Blake Walston. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:59 pm
    • Sitting down Saturday
      D'Arnaud isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against Pittsburgh.

      Advice: After going 2-for-4 with two RBI during Friday's loss, d'Arnaud will take a seat Saturday while Chadwick Tromp starts behind the plate, batting eighth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:17 am
       
    • Not in Thursday's lineup
      D'Arnaud is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.

      Advice: He started the first two contest of the series, but with Thursday's finale being a day game, d'Arnaud will get a breather. Atlanta will go with Chadwick Tromp as its catcher for starting pitcher AJ Smith-Shawver. Rotowire.com Thursday, 8:53 am
       
    • 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 May 20, 1:50 pm
       
    • Belts first homer of season
      Bethancourt went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Mets.

      Advice: The catcher took Jake Diekman deep in the seventh inning, bringing the Marlins to within a run at 4-3, but it was as close as they got. Bethancourt has offered little at the plate this season -- Sunday's homer was his first of 2024, and he's slashing .143/.186/.232 in 60 plate appearances as the backup to Nick Fortes.

    • 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 May 19, 1:39 pm
