Dylan Dodd - Pounded by Padres Dodd (1-1) took the loss Sunday against San Diego after he gave up seven runs on 10 hits with three strikeouts and one walk over 4.1 innings.

Impact The 24-year-old threw 60 of his 84 pitches for strikes and perhaps found too much of the plate at times, as he surrendered two homers and four doubles. Dodd allowed just one run in five frames during his MLB debut last week, and he's likely to remain in the rotation for now since Max Fried (hamstring) isn't likely to return from the injured list for at least a couple weeks.

Max Fried - Still hasn't resumed mound work Fried (hamstring) hasn't yet resumed mound work and is likely about two weeks away from returning, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Fried has been playing catch recently but hasn't yet progressed to mound work, and there's been no indication that he's resumed running. It's unclear when he'll be able to throw off a mound, but he'll need some time to build back up before he's in consideration to return to game action.

Impact Tromp replaces Travis d'Arnaud on the roster after d'Arnaud was placed on the 7-day injured list with a concussion Sunday. The backstop will operate as Sean Murphy's backup while he's with Atlanta.

Travis d'Arnaud - Goes on 7-day IL Atlanta placed d'Arnaud (concussion) on the 7-day injured list Sunday.

Impact Chadwick Tromp was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to replace d'Arnaud as the No. 2 catcher behind Sean Murphy. Despite entering the season in a projected backup role, d'Arnaud had played on a near-everyday basis while moving between catcher and designated hitter, slashing .333/.333/.424 while starting in all but one of Atlanta's first nine games. While d'Arnaud is sidelined for the next week, Murphy will see an even larger share of the reps behind the dish, and Marcell Ozuna should also occupy the DH spot on a near-everyday basis.

Impact The veteran right-hander worked around two singles and two walks to start off with two scoreless frames, but the Friars struck for three runs between the third and fourth innings. Morton has allowed 15 hits and five walks through his first two starts of the season, though he's limited the damage to three runs in each outing for a 4.35 ERA. He lines up to have a favorable matchup against the Royals next weekend.

Travis d'Arnaud - Expected to go on concussion IL Atlanta manager Brian Snitker told reporters after Saturday's loss to the Padres that d'Arnaud is expected to go on the 7-day concussion IL, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact The concussion occurred after d'Arnaud collided with Rougned Odor at home plate. The 34-year-old backstop will miss at least a week while recovering, but there's no guarantee he'll be ready to return in that timeframe. Sean Murphy will see the majority of playing time behind the plate while he recovers.
