Spencer Strider - Coughs up five runs Strider (4-3) allowed five runs on four hits and two walks over four innings Sunday, striking out four and taking a loss against Washington.

Impact Most of the damage against Strider came during an ugly four-run second inning; he yielded a two-run single to Ehire Adrianza and a two-run homer to Victor Robles in the frame. It was Strider's second straight start of fewer than five innings after tossing six innings in each of his previous three outings. The 23-year-old is now sporting a 3.03 ERA with a 114:30 K:BB through 21 appearances (10 starts).

Travis d'Arnaud - Heads to bench Sunday D'Arnaud is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact D'Arnaud and William Contreras will conclude the first half having alternated turns behind the plate over the past six games. Contreras will catch for the second time in the series while d'Arnaud sits after going 1-for-4 with an RBI in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Nationals.

Marcell Ozuna - Gets breather Sunday Ozuna is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Ozuna will hit the bench for the second time in less than a week while he heads into the All-Star break amid a slump at the plate. Over his last eight games, Ozuna went 4-for-29, dropping his season average to .221. Atlanta will give Ronald Acuna a day out of the outfield and deploy him as the designated hitter Sunday in place of Ozuna.

Austin Riley - Blasts 27th homer Riley went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 6-3 win over Washington.

Impact After being added to the National League All-Star team earlier Saturday as a replacement for the Cardinals' Nolan Arenado, Riley celebrated the occasion by going yard for the second game in a row. Riley has now produced six home runs in his last eight games, bringing his total to 27 for the season. He trails only the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber (29) for the National League lead in the category.

Michael Harris II - Swipes three bags Harris went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run and three stolen bases in a 6-3 victory over Washington on Saturday.

Impact Harris singled and stole second in the fourth inning, walked, stole second and scored in the seventh and doubled and stole third in the ninth. The three times on base mark the seventh occasion in 47 games the rookie has done so, and he's one of only two players who's recorded double-digit thefts with under 50 games played. Harris is slashing an impressive .284/.320/.503 with eight home runs, 30 runs and 26 RBI.

Kenley Jansen - Notches 22nd save Jansen logged the save during Saturday's 6-3 win against the Nationals, submitting a perfect ninth inning on 10 pitches.

Impact Jansen entered in the ninth inning to protect a three-run lead and made quick work of the heart of Washington's lineup en route to his 22nd save. In three appearances since returning from the IL, the 34-year-old has surrendered one run in three innings and possesses a 3.53 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 49 strikeouts in 35.2 innings overall.

Max Fried - Earns 10th win Fried (10-3) earned the win during Saturday's 6-3 victory over Washington, allowing three runs on seven hits with four strikeouts in seven innings.

Impact Atlanta provided Fried an early four-run lead and the lefty rolled to an easy win, firing 60 of 94 pitches for strikes in the process. The 28-year-old encountered one rough inning in the fourth when he surrendered two runs on two hits but managed to permit only one run in his other six frames. Though he still delivered a quality start, the three runs surrendered snapped a five-game streak of allowing two runs or fewer. Fried concludes the first half with a 2.64 ERA and 1.06 WHIP with 109 strikeouts in 119.1 innings across 19 starts.

Ronald Acuña Jr. - Gets Saturday off Acuna will sit Saturday against Washington.

Impact Acuna had some extra days off early on in his return from knee surgery, but he's handled a star player's typical heavy workload in recent weeks. Saturday's off day marks his first time out of the lineup thus far in July. Adam Duvall will start in right field.

Orlando Arcia - Pops fourth homer Arcia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Nationals.

Impact With southpaw Patrick Corbin on the mound for the Nats, Arcia got the start at second base while hitting eighth and took advantage of the matchup. The 27-year-old infielder is slashing .256/.329/.388 with four homers, 13 runs and 18 RBI in 146 plate appearances, and for now he'll handle the short side of a platoon alongside Robinson Cano until Ozzie Albies (foot) is ready to return.

JULY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Adam Duvall - Big power display Friday Duvall went 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Nationals.

Impact His ninth-inning blast off Kyle Finnegan capped the scoring for Atlanta. Since returning from the paternity list early in the week, Duvall has gone yard twice in three games to give him 12 homers and 35 RBI on the year, but his .211/.275/.401 slash line given him limited fantasy value in shallower formats.

JULY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Austin Riley - Power surge continues Riley went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-4 win over the Nationals.

Impact The 25-year-old hasn't taken his All-Star snub lying down. Riley's gone yard eight times in 15 games in July, slashing a blistering .403/.439/.871 over that stretch with 17 RBI, and he now sits two homers behind Kyle Schwarber's 28 for the National League lead while pacing the NL in total bases with 201.
