Travis d'Arnaud Taking A Seat Saturday
4 months agoAtlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the hosting New York Mets and right-hander Tylor Megill. The veteran singled in his four trips to the plate on Friday but will give way to Sean Murphy behind the dish on Saturday. It's been a productive 2024 campaign for the 35-year-old who is hitting .257 with nine home runs and a .777 OPS across 69 games and 224 trips to the plate, production that grades out 15% above the league average, as per his 115 wRC+. d'Arnaud's production has earned him more reps behind the plate over Murphy who has taken a step back at the dish in 2024. Fantasy managers who scooped him up should be pleased with d'Arnaud's production at a cheap cost this season.
