Flowers is out of the lineup against Arizona on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
He will take a seat in favor of Kurt Suzuki after going 1-for-3 with one RBI and two walks against Toronto on Wednesday. Over 41 games this year, Flowers is hitting .236/.366/.370 with four home runs and 17 RBI.

Flowers is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
For the first time since June 12, an Atlanta catcher will start back-to-back games, but it will be Kurt Suzuki, not Flowers. Flowers is hitting just .159/.275/.273 over his last 16 games, so there's a chance Suzuki could start more often going forward.

Flowers is not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale at Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis

Flowers will head to the bench Friday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
No Braves catcher has started in back-to-back games behind the plate in nearly a month, and that trend will continue Friday, with Kurt Suzuki coming back into the lineup. The rotation policy has proven effective, with both catchers posting above-average batting lines according to wRC+ (121 for Suzuki and 106 for Flowers).

Flowers is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
As per usual, Flowers will retreat to the bench a day after starting behind the plate. Braves manager Brian Snitker has shown no intention of ending the relatively even timeshare at catcher between Flowers and Kurt Suzuki, so expect both players to continue to receive anywhere between two and four starts per week.

Flowers is not in the lineup against the Yankees on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Flowers will retreat to the bench after going 1-for-4 with a double during Sunday's game versus St. Louis. In his absence, Kurt Suzuki will catch and bat fifth.

Flowers (hamstring) is simply having a scheduled day off Saturday against the Cardinals and is no longer affected by hamstring tightness, Gabe Burns of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Braves have alternated between Flowers and Kurt Suzuki at catcher for the last 16 games. Flowers' day off Saturday is simply a continuation of that rotation. Expect him to start Sunday.

Flowers (hamstring) is not in the lineup Saturday against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Flowers left Friday's game with hamstring tightness and will miss at least one start. Flowers and Kurt Suzuki have alternated starts behind the plate for the last 16 games, though, so it's not possible to draw a conclusion about Flowers' health simply from the fact that he's not in the lineup. Consider him day-to-day unless reports indicate otherwise.

Flowers left Friday's game with hamstring tightness.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how severe the injury is, but Atlanta will have to make a quick decision about the roster to make sure they have enough catchers to get through the next few games. Consider him day-to-day for now, an expect a DL decision before Saturday night's game against St. Louis.
