D'Arnaud went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Monday's 13-1 rout of the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the prior seven games due to a lower-leg issue, d'Arnaud got the start at catcher Monday and hit seventh, and his three-run blast off Mychal Givens in the sixth inning capped the scoring on the night for Atlanta. The veteran backstop hadn't gone deep since late June, snapping a 22-game homer drought with the performance, and on the season d'Arnaud is slashing .257/.310/.449 with 12 home runs and 43 RBI in 73 games. Expect the 33-year-old to split time with William Contreras the rest of the way as Atlanta tries to keep both catchers healthy for the playoffs.

D'Arnaud (lower leg) isn't expected to return until Monday at the earliest, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud hasn't played since last Saturday due to a lower leg injury. Previous reports indicated he'd be back for the weekend series against the Marlins, but he remains unable to squat probably, so he'll remain shut down for a few more days. A trip to the injured list doesn't appear to be on the cards just yet, however. Chadwick Tromp will continue to back up William Contreras in his absence.

EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud was expected to be available to rejoin the lineup for Atlanta's four-game series in Miami this weekend, but he'll be held out of the lineup once again for the series opener. William Contreras is starting behind the plate and batting fifth.

Atlanta expects d'Arnaud (lower leg) to be ready to rejoin the lineup for their four-game series with the Marlins that begins Friday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though d'Arnaud isn't available for Sunday's series finale with the Mets and was sporting a walking boot to protect his lower right leg, Atlanta apparently doesn't believe his injury is significant enough to require a trip to the injured list. Even so, manager Brian Snitker isn't preparing for d'Arnaud to be available in a depth capacity for at least a few days, so Atlanta called up Chadwick Tromp from Triple-A Gwinnett to provide a depth option behind William Contreras at catcher. Tromp will serve as Contreras' backup Sunday and in Atlanta's upcoming two-game series in Boston that begins Tuesday.

D'Arnaud (lower leg) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets and is wearing a protective walking boot, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old had X-rays on his lower right leg come back negative after exiting Game 2 of Saturday's twin bill, and he's now sporting a protective boot. Atlanta's roster moves Sunday didn't include d'Arnaud going on the injured list, so he'll remain on the active roster for now. However, catcher Chadwick Tromp was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett, which indicates the veteran will be unavailable for at least a couple days.

D'Arnaud underwent X-rays after injuring his lower right leg in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Mets, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The X-rays taken on d'Arnaud's injured leg came back negative, and according to the report he is considered day-to-day. As such, It remains to be seen if he will be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale.
