Travis d’Arnaud, Tyler Flowers nearing Braves return after missing opening weekend

The Braves had to quickly shift gears before opening day as catchers Travis d’Arnaud and Tyler Flowers both came down with some kind of illness just two days before the season began, but it appears they are both feeling better and could return as soon as tomorrow.

Brian Snitker updated their status before Tuesday’s finale in Tampa Bay and said d’Arnaud and Flowers worked out in Atlanta today. It’s unclear if they will be ready to return for the home opener on Wednesday, but it’s possible at least one of them return tomorrow and the other may not be far behind.
