D'Arnaud is out of the lineup for the second half of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud was behind the plate for all seven innings of Atlanta's 7-6 win in the front end of the twin bill, going 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI. Alex Jackson will draw the start at catcher in the second game while d'Arnaud gets a breather.

D'Arnaud went 1-for-4 with a home run in Sunday's loss against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud accounted for Atlanta's lone run of the game when he launched a homer in the top of the seventh inning against Zach Eflin -- that'd be the only run the right-hander allowed over the course of seven innings. The veteran catcher should remain as the Braves' starting backstop this season, and while he might not repeat what he did in the 2020 shortened campaign when he posted a career-best .919 OPS, he should be a decent fantasy alternative considering the lack of fantasy value in his position across the league.

D'Arnaud has gone 3-for-15 (.200) through seven Grapefruit League games with a home run and a 2:4 BB:K.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran catcher hasn't had much luck when it comes to hits falling in, but d'Arnaud's starting spot in Atlanta is in no jeopardy regardless of his final line this spring. He likely won't be able to duplicate last year's career-high .919 OPS over a full campaign, but d'Arnaud still figures to provide strong fantasy numbers for his position.

D'Arnaud went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, two RBI and one run scored in a win over the Marlins on Thursday in Game 3 of the NLDS.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't any of the Braves' top three hitters that led the offense in the series, but d'Arnaud. The backstop went 6-for-10 with three walks, two homers, seven RBI and three runs scored in what turned out to be a three-game sweep for Atlanta. Designated for assignment by the Mets in April of 2019, d'Arnaud ended up finishing the 2020 regular season fifth in fWAR at the catcher position.

D'Arnaud went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Marlins in Game 2 of the NLDS.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud stayed red hot in the NLDS, blasting a home run for the second straight game. The veteran had nine home runs and 34 RBI in the regular season and continues to showcase that power in the postseason. D'Arnaud has started each of Atlanta's playoff games so far and should continue to serve as the Braves' primary backstop.

D'Arnaud went 3-for-3 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two walks during the Game 1 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old started off the NLCS in fantastic fashion as he reached in all five plate appearances, including a three-run homer during the seventh inning to break a 4-4 tie. D'Arnaud has started all three playoff games thus far and should continue to work as Atlanta's primary backstop.

D'Arnaud is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The Braves' spot in the postseason has been solidified for some time, so manager Brian Snitker has taken to rotating starts between d'Arnaud and Tyler Flowers over the final week of the regular season. Expect d'Arnuad to be ready to catch nearly every game of the playoffs after he was one of the majors' top backstops in 2020. Over 44 games spanning 184 plate appearances, d'Arnaud slashed .321/.386/.533.

D'Arnaud is out of the lineup Friday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud is on the bench for the second straight game, but Atlanta is likely just providing him some extra rest with the NL East crown all sewn up. Tyler Flowers takes over behind the plate Friday, batting eighth.
