The Braves recalled Arcia from Triple-A Gwinnett following Saturday's game against the Marlins.

The 26-year-old went 1-for-11 in four games with the Brewers before being dealt to Atlanta on April 6. He has excelled at Triple-A this season, hitting .303 with 13 homers and 28 RBI in 201 at-bats. Arcia has played 533 of his 542 career games on the left side of the infield, but Atlanta hopes to give him opportunities in left field, which has been an offensive void since Marcell Ozuna (finger) left the team. Arcia played left field in his last week with Triple-A Gwinnett, per David O'Brien of The Athletic.

Story went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Cardinals.

Story slammed a three-run homer off Genesis Cabrera to give Colorado the lead in the seventh inning. The blast netted all three of the Rockies' runs in the win. The 28-year-old produced his seventh multi-hit game over his last 15 appearances. He is slashing .255/.328/.445 with 39 runs and 39 RBI. The dual power-speed threat has 10 long balls and 14 stolen bases. He is one of 10 players that have double-digit home runs and steals this season.

Ahmed went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, an additional run, a walk and a strikeout in a 6-5 loss to San Francisco on Saturday.

Ahmed singled in the first, walked and scored in the third, and smacked a two-run home run in the fourth to tie the game 4-4. It was only Ahmed's second home run in 72 games this season, as the shortstop is slashing .224/.294/.332.

Turner (finger) isn't starting Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

Turner took swings ahead of Saturday's matchup to determine whether he'd be able to play, but he'll ultimately be held out of the lineup for a third straight game. It's not yet clear whether he could be available off the bench, but Alcides Escobar will start at shortstop and bat seventh.

Turner (finger) will take some pregame swings to determine if he can play Saturday against the Dodgers, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

There's been no further update on the condition of Turner's finger, which still had swelling Friday after he jammed it Wednesday afternoon. If Turner can't go, Humberto Arteaga may start at shortstop again. It's also possible that Alcides Escobar, whom the Nationals traded for Friday, could be called up to start.

Edman went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a walk, a stolen base and two runs in a win over the Rockies on Friday.

Edman's surge continued a day after he laced his third triple of the season, and he extended his hitting streak to four games in the process. The 26-year-old has a pair of multi-efforts during that span as well, helping lead to four RBI.

Adames went 3-for-3 with a home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Friday's win over the Pirates.

Adames was one of three Brewers that went deep against Pittsburgh starter JT Brubaker. The shortstop has been on a power tear of late with four homers over his last eight games. He also has hit safely in all but two games during that eight-game stretch while plating 11 runs, scoring eight of his own and posting a strong 8:6 BB:K to go along with a .379 average. It's safe to say this has been one of Adames' most productive stretches of the entire campaign.

Crawford went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Friday's 11-4 win over Arizona.

Crawford had his fourth three-hit effort this year and his second in nine games Friday night. The only time he didn't manage to reach base was his initial at-bat when he grounded out to second. The 34-year-old has maintained a solid slash line of .256/.339/.525 with 17 homers, 51 RBI, 45 runs scored, six stolen bases and 29:63 BB:K over 271 plate appearances. Crawford's spike in power has been a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers. He's currently well on pace to set a new career high in home runs this year and has a chance to end the season with a slugging percentage over .500 for the first time ever.

Turner (finger) is not in the lineup Friday versus the Dodgers, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Manager Dave Martinez indicated Thursday that Turner continues to deal with swelling in his finger, so it's not a major surprise to see him on the bench for the second straight contest. Humberto Arteaga was promoted from Double-A Harrisburg and will start at shortstop Friday for the Nationals.

Reyes was recalled from Triple-A Nashville prior to Friday's game against the Pirates.

Reyes was called up Monday but was sent down Wednesday after getting just one at-bat. He'll now return to the big club as Kolten Wong (calf) heads to the injured list. Reyes should serve in a utility role going forward.
