William Woods - Returns to Triple-AWoods was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett following Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mets.

ImpactThe 23-year-old was recalled as the 27th man for Tuesday's twin bill but didn't appear in either contest. He delivered a scoreless frame in both of his appearances for Atlanta this season and could rejoin the big club later in the year.

Travis Jankowski - Crosses plate three times in winJankowski went 2-for-3 with a walk, three runs scored and a stolen base in a 5-4 win over Atlanta during the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

ImpactGetting the start in center field and hitting leadoff, Jankowski made the most of his opportunity. The 30-year-old hasn't seen much playing time behind Brandon Nimmo and mostly gets used as a pinch runner or defensive sub, with Tuesday's plate appearances being his first since Apr. 24. Despite the limited role, Jankowski is batting .360 (9-for-25) with three steals and eight runs scored on the season.

Edwin Díaz - Notches fifth saveDiaz gave up a hit and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his fifth save of the season in the first game of a doubleheader against Atlanta.

ImpactThe right-hander has converted four straight save chances since getting tagged for his first blown save of the year Apr. 22. Diaz has mostly been lights out so far, posting a 1.64 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB through 11 innings.

David Peterson - Snags first win of seasonPeterson (1-0) picked up the win in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against Atlanta, giving up four runs (three earned) on four hits and three walks over five innings. He...

ImpactA three-run blast by Matt Olson in the fifth inning accounted for most of the damage off Peterson, but the Mets had already built a 5-1 lead and Atlanta couldn't find a tying run. The southpaw has pitched well enough to stay in the rotation, posting a 1.89 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 16:8 K:BB through 19 innings in the majors this season, but it's not clear what the Mets' plans are for the 26-year-old after the twin bill.
