Fantasy Impact:

Fernando Tatis Jr. exited Friday's game in the third inning after taking a 93 mph fastball from Mitch Keller off his left forearm. A large welt was visible as he left the field, but initial X-rays came back negative. The team said he's receiving treatment and will continue to be evaluated. Oscar Gonzalez replaced him in the lineup. Should Tatis miss time, Gonzalez and Jason Heyward could see increased playing time.
