Ronald Acuña Jr. - No outfield work yet Acuna (knee) has not yet been cleared for outfield work or any cutting drills, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
Impact Manager Brian Snitker noted Monday that the club will evaluate the leadoff spot on a day-to-day basis after news broke earlier that Jurickson Profar had been handed an 80-game suspension by MLB for violating the performance-enhancing drug policy, and the skipper took this opportunity to give a brief update on Acuna, who would presumably slot in to the leadoff spot once given a clean bill of health. The 27-year-old is still expected to make his return to the field sometime in May, though a more exact timetable for his return should surface once he embarks on a rehab assignment.

Bryce Elder - Recalled by Atlanta Atlanta recalled Elder from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.
Impact The move corresponds with Atlanta placing Reynaldo Lopez on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. Elder didn't make the Opening Day roster after posting a 4.97 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in spring training, but he'll join Atlanta's rotation and could start as soon as Wednesday against the Dodgers. He went 2-5 across 10 regular-season starts for Atlanta in 2024 with a 6.52 ERA and 1.63 WHIP across 49.2 innings.

Reynaldo López - To IL with shoulder inflammation Atlanta placed Lopez on the 15-day injured list Monday with right shoulder inflammation.
Impact Lopez's velocity was down throughout spring training, and while it ticked back up in his season debut against the Padres, he managed just one strikeout. It's the third arm-related stint on the IL for Lopez since last year's All-Star break. Bryce Elder has taken Lopez's spot on the roster and will start in his place Wednesday versus the Dodgers. Lopez will be eligible for activation in mid-April, but his absence is likely to extend beyond that.

Bryan De La Cruz - Making first start of 2025 De La Cruz is starting in right field and batting seventh against the Dodgers on Monday.
Impact De La Cruz came in as a pinch hitter twice during Atlanta's road series against San Diego. Monday will be his first start of the 2025 season, and he'll see everyday role in the outfield until Ronald Acuna (knee) comes back following Jurickson Profar's 80-game suspension by Major League Baseball for violating the performance-enhancing drug policy. De La Cruz split time with Atlanta and Miami across 149 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with a slash line of .233/.271/.384 with 21 home runs and 68 RBI in 621 plate appearances.

Jurickson Profar - Suspended 80 games for PEDs Profar has been suspended 80 games by Major League Baseball for violating the performance-enhancing drug policy, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Profar is in the first year of a three-year, $42 million contract he signed after a career-best 2024 season which saw him slash .280/.380/.459 with 24 home runs and 10 stolen bases over 158 regular-season games. He won't be eligible to return until late June, leaving fantasy managers with little choice but to drop him. Atlanta will attempt to get by with Jarred Kelenic, Bryan De La Cruz, Eli White and Stuart Fairchild on their outfield corners for now, although Alex Verdugo should arrive soon and Ronald Acuna (knee) is expected back by early- to mid-May.

Joe Jiménez - Shifts to 60-day IL Atlanta transferred Jimenez (knee) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Impact Jimenez is expected to be sidelined until the second half of the season while he remains on the mend from November surgery on his left knee, so his move to the 60-day IL won't affect his timeline for a return. The transaction will free up a spot on the 40-man roster for outfielder Stuart Fairchild, whom Atlanta acquired from Cincinnati on Monday.
