Kenley Jansen - Throwing bullpen Monday Jansen (chest) threw a bullpen Monday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
Impact Jansen expected to be activated from the injured list Tuesday, but he'll presumably need to wait at least one more day before he rejoins Atlanta's bullpen. Although he's unlikely to return Tuesday, he's made strong progress in his recovery recently and should be back in action in the coming days.

William Contreras - On bench Monday Contreras is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.
Impact Though he was named to the National League's All-Star team Sunday, Contreras remains a part-time player for Atlanta. With Travis d'Arnaud locked in as Atlanta's No. 1 catcher and with Marcell Ozuna secure as the team's everyday designated hitter now that the team is back to full strength in the outfield, Contreras could struggle to receive more than three or four starts during Atlanta's final seven games before the All-Star break.

Robinson Canó - Starting Monday Cano is starting at second base and batting ninth Monday against the Mets.
Impact After being acquired via trade from the Padres on Sunday, Cano will make his debut with Atlanta on Monday against the Mets. The 39-year-old will look to continue the success he had in Triple-A before being dealt, slashing .333/.375/.479 with three long balls over 21 games with El Paso. Cano is expected to be the primary option for Atlanta at second base moving forward.

Impact Arcia will head to the bench Monday as Robinson Cano will make his debut with the team and take over the starting spot a second base. The 27-year-old is expected to shift into more of a platoon role after the addition of Cano, making his absence from the lineup Monday something that could be common moving forward.
