Atlanta Braves catcher Travis D'Arnaud was 3-for-4 with five RBI and a walk during Friday's 11-10 win over the New York Mets. The 31-year-old smacked a bases-clearing double in the bottom of the eighth inning to put his team in front. D'Arnuad has impressed during his first two games back, going 4-for-7 with six RBI. The presence of Tyler Flowers hampers d'Arnuad's fantasy value, but when he is in the lineup, he is more than capable of providing an offensive punch.

The Atlanta Braves are re-signing catcher Tyler Flowers to a one-year, $4 million deal on Monday, according to a source. This comes after the team declined his $6 million 2020 option and offered him a $2 million buyout. Flowers split time with Brian McCann, who has since retired, in 2019 and hit .229/.319/.413 with 11 home runs and 34 RBI in his 271 at-bats.

Atlanta Braves catcher Tyler Flowers will head into the NLDS slugging only .383 over his last 35 games. Flowers will work as a tandem with veteran Brian McCann throughout the postseason and, despite his leadership, has struggled offensively again this season.
