INJURIES

On bench again Tuesday Contreras remains on the bench Tuesday against Arizona.
Impact The arrival of Michael Harris may have forced Contreras into a bench role. Harris will start his fourth straight game in center field Tuesday, pushing Adam Duvall to left field. Duvall, Marcell Ozuna and Ronald Acuna should fill the outfield corners and the designated hitter spot most days, though Contreras should still feature occasionally in any of those three spots as well as in a backup catcher role.

Sitting Monday Contreras will be on the bench Monday against the Diamondbacks.
Impact Contreras sits after starting seven straight games, a stretch in which he posted a .991 OPS. He appeared twice at catcher, once in left field and four times as the designated hitter over that stretch, positions which will be filled by Travis d'Arnaud, Marcell Ozuna and Ronald Acuna, respectively, in Monday's contest.

Nola pitches shutout ball into 9th, Phillies beat Braves 4-1

Aaron Nola struck out 10 while pitching shutout ball into the ninth inning for his first victory since opening day, leading the Philadelphia Phillies over the Atlanta Braves 4-1

Homers, reaches three times in win Contreras went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks and two runs in the win over the Phillies on Wednesday.
Impact Contreras took Ranger Suarez deep for a solo shot in his first at-bat in the bottom of the second frame before later walking twice and coming around to score again. The homer was his seventh of the campaign and third in his last four contests. Over the past four games, the 24-year-old has produced a .462 average with three homers, four RBI and five runs. He's now batting .273 with seven home runs, 11 RBI, 12 runs and a stolen base over 44 at-bats in 13 games in 2022. Contreras has recently transitioned into an everyday role, making him a very intriguing fantasy option at catcher moving forward.

Contreras gets first walk-off hit, Braves edge Phillies 6-5

William Contreras singled home Ronald Acuña Jr. in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Atlanta Braves a 6-5 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies
MAY 25, 2022 • Associated Press
Moving into everyday role Contreras will serve as Atlanta's designated hitter and No. 2 batter in Tuesday's game against the Phillies.
Impact For the second game in a row, the righty-hitting Contreras will stick in the lineup against a right-handed starting pitcher (Kyle Gibson), after he went 2-for-4 with a double and a run while manning left field in Monday's 7-3 loss to Philadelphia. The 24-year-old has now posted an incredible 1.141 OPS through 42 plate appearances with Atlanta this season, and while he's swinging a hot bat, he should see regular starts at either left field, DH or catcher. The fact that Contreras has catcher eligibility in most fantasy leagues without having to play behind the plate on a regular basis makes him especially appealing. While he's getting steady at-bats, Contreras looks like a must-roster player in every weekly league that includes two catchers in lineups.

Starting in left field Contreras will bat second and play left field Monday against the Phillies.
Impact Contreras has homered six times in 10 games this season, but he doesn't have a path to a major role behind the plate with Travis d'Arnaud hitting well and under contract through at least the end of next season. Contreras' inclusion in the lineup as an outfielder Monday is a clear sign that Atlanta wants to create as many opportunities for him as possible. He's only appeared in two games in the outfield as a professional, but he's a strong athlete for a catcher and should be able to hold his own.

Slugs two long balls Saturday Contreras went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs and a walk in Saturday's 4-3 win over Miami.
Impact Contreras got the scoring started in the contest with his solo homer to right field in the fifth inning, and he knocked another solo shot in the seventh. This was his second multi-homer performance of the campaign despite the fact that he has played in only 10 games. Contreras is tied for the league lead among catchers with six long balls on the season, and he has essentially split time behind the plate with Travis d'Arnaud over the past week.

Contreras homers twice as Acuña, Braves beat Marlins 4-3

William Contreras homered twice,  Ronald Acuña Jr. extended his two-season on-base streak to 28 games and the Atlanta Braves beat the Miami Marlins 4-3
MAY 22, 2022 • Associated Press
Sits after three straight starts Contreras is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Milwaukee.
Impact Contreras will hit the bench after he went a collective 2-for-10 with a solo home run, a walk and two additional runs over Atlanta's last three games while starting at either catcher or designated hitter. According to Mark Bowman of MLB.com, Ronald Acuna (groin) remains out of the lineup Monday but is expected to return to action Tuesday, so Contreras' opportunities to handle DH duties will likely take a significant hit soon.

Continues to capitalize on chances Contreras went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 11-6 loss to the Padres.
Impact The young backstop took Yu Darvish deep in the third inning to open the scoring for Atlanta. Travis d'Arnaud is playing well enough to keep the starting job behind the plate, but Contreras is showing he belongs in the majors on a full-time basis, slugging four homers in five starts since his promotion in late April while batting .375 (6-for-16) with seven RBI. Should d'Arnaud get hurt or slump, Contreras could become a fantasy asset even in shallow formats, and not just a DFS darling.

Braves catcher Piña to have season-ending left wrist surgery

Atlanta Braves catcher Manny Piña will have season-ending surgery after tests revealed ligament and cartilage damage in his left wrist
MAY 11, 2022 • Associated Press
Plates four runs in win Contreras went 1-for-2 with a homer, four RBI, a stolen base, two walks and a strikeout in Sunday's 9-2 win over the Brewers.
Impact Contreras didn't appear in the last three games but was one of Atlanta's top contributors while starting behind the dish and batting ninth Sunday. The 24-year-old has had sporadic playing time since joining the major-league club, but he has three home runs over five games. While Travis d'Arnaud continues to serve as Atlanta's primary catcher, Contreras' strong results could lead to him remaining the No. 2 backstop once Manny Pina (wrist) is cleared to return.
