Latches on with Atlanta
Atlanta agreed to terms with Merrifield on a one-year contract Monday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact
Merrifield was cut loose by the Phillies prior to the All-Star break after managing just a .572 OPS in 174 plate appearances. He'll remain in the division and provide Atlanta with an option at second base -- where it just lost Ozzie Albies (wrist) -- and the outfield -- where it's missing Ronald Acuna (knee) and Michael Harris (hamstring). The 35-year-old did steal 11 bases while being caught just once in Philadelphia, but he'll have to hit better in Atlanta than he did in Philly if he wants to play regularly.

Cut loose by Phillies
>The Phillies released Merrifield on Friday, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Impact
Merrifield signed a one-year, $8 million contract with Philadelphia in February that included a team option in 2025. However, after posting a .572 OPS in 174 plate appearances, Merrifield was released. The veteran utility player should garner significant interest on the open market.

Out of Thursday's lineup
Merrifield is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Swipes bag Wednesday
Merrifield went 1-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Cubs.
Impact
Merrifield has two steals over his last six contests, but he's gone just 4-for-23 at the plate over his last 11 games. The infielder has recorded 20-plus steals five times in his first eight major-league campaigns, but his smaller role and lackluster ability to get on base in 2024 has put a damper on his speed contributions. He's slashing .190/.277/.282 with eight steals, three home runs, 10 RBI and 19 runs scored over 160 plate appearances this year.

Taking seat Tuesday
Merrifield is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact
Merrifield's playing time has been trending upward lately, starting four of the Phillies' previous six games. However, he'll yield to Brandon Marsh in left field for Tuesday's series opener in Chicago.

Playing time trending up
Merrifield will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Marlins.
Impact
Merrifield will get his third start in four games and should be in store for an uptick in playing time in the short term after the Phillies recently placed both Bryce Harper (hamstring) and Kyle Schwarber (groin) on the injured list. Through 16 games in June while seeing mostly sporadic at-bats, Merrifield has slashed .216/.293/.297 with one home run and one stolen base.
