Murphy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Murphy and Travis d'Arnaud have now alternated turns behind the dish over the last six games, with both backstops making three starts apiece. Atlanta manager Brian Snitker has opted for the timeshare arrangement, with Murphy getting off to a slow start to the second half, as the 28-year-old is mired in a 4-for-41 slump at the dish since the All-Star break. Once Murphy breaks out of his funk, he'll likely take back the lion's share of the starts at catcher.

Murphy is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Murphy received a breather Saturday, but Atlanta will give its top backstop another day off to begin its series with the Angels. The team hasn't provided any indication that Murphy is dealing with an injury, so his move to the bench for the second time in three days could just be a means of getting No. 2 catcher Travis d'Arnaud some extra work. Murphy could probably benefit from another day off anyway while he's gone cold coming out of the All-Star break; he's slashing .105/.227/.132 in his first 10 games of the second half.

EDGE Analysis

Murphy will get a breather for the series finale after going 0-for-9 in his first two games back from the All-Star break.

Travis d'Arnaud will catch for starter Kolby Allard.

EDGE Analysis

Murphy went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and two walks Saturday in a 6-1 win over the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Murphy produced half of Atlanta's runs on one swing when he slugged a three-run shot to left field in the fourth inning. It was the All-Star catcher's third straight game with a long ball, and he's gone 6-for-11 with seven RBI over that span. Murphy has hit 17 home runs through 67 contests, and he's already just one shy of his career-high mark of 18 set last season over 148 contests.
