Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Sean Murphy (hamstring) remains absent from the Braves’ lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Phillies. Murphy will sit out his third consecutive game on Wednesday evening as he continues to recover from a mild right hamstring issue. It’ll be Travis d’Arnaud behind the dish once again in his absence. There’s been zero indication that Murphy will wind up requiring a trip to the injured list at this stage.
Philadelphia Phillies DFS SPIN
Wednesday’s game between the Braves and Phillies was postponed due to inclement weather. It’ll be made up as a split doubleheader on September 11. The two sides waited roughly two hours in a rain delay before the final decision was made to pull the plug entirely. Aaron Nola will take the ball during Thursday’s series finale in Philadelphia with Bryce Elder drawing the starting assignment for Atlanta. AJ Smith-Shawver is being pushed back to Friday instead.
