James Farmer: Breaking News

Atlanta placed Farmer on the 10-day injured list Monday with a right forearm strain. He'll be eligible to return next week, but there's no timetable for Farmer's activation. Farmer has played sparingly for Atlanta this season, picking up four hits in 14 at-bats.

Farmer went 1-for-3 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Sunday's rout of the Guardians. The veteran utility infielder replaced Dominic Smith at DH in the fifth inning with Atlanta already ahead 6-0, and Farmer promptly ripped a two-run double off Kolby Allard. Farmer had only three plate appearances on the season coming into Sunday, and the team's managerial switch from Brian Snitker to Walt Weiss this offseason hasn't done much for the playing-time outlook of Atlanta's bench players.

Atlanta signed Farmer to a one-year split contract Saturday. The 35-year-old infielder was invited to spring training by Atlanta in early February. Across 12 Grapefruit League games, he posted a .400/.417/.514 slash line with one home run and five RBI in 36 plate appearances. Farmer's path to an Opening Day roster was cleared after Jurickson Profar was suspended for the entire 2026 season after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug for a second time in the last year, but he could still begin the season at Triple-A Gwinnett.
