Marsee went 2-for-4 with a walk, two runs scored and four stolen bases in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Reds.

Marsee stole 60 bases all of last season between Triple-A and the majors but entered play Tuesday with just one through 10 games. The Marlins made it a point to run on Tyler Stephenson all night and went a perfect 6-for-6 on stolen bases as a team Tuesday. Marsee reached base three times for the first time in 2026, as he came into the game with a total of four hits and five walks. The second-year outfielder is slashing .143/.245/.214 with two extra-base hits, two RBI, seven runs scored, five stolen bases and a 6:14 BB:K across 43 plate appearances.

Crow-Armstrong went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a stolen base and three total runs scored in Tuesday's 9-2 win over the Rays.

After smacking 31 home runs during the regular season last year, Crow-Armstrong had yet to find his power stroke before Tuesday, but he's now on the board with his first long ball of 2026. The talented outfielder also recorded his fourth stolen base through 11 games. Crow-Armstrong had a 30-30 campaign in 2025, and his ability to both hit the ball over the wall and swipe a base gives him a ton of upside from a fantasy perspective moving forward, especially if he goes on a power surge in the near future.

Harris is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Harris started the first 11 games of the season but will get his first day off Tuesday. He began the campaign with a homer Opening Day and a three-hit showing in the second game, but he's batting just .143 (5-for-35) across the past nine contests. Eli White is receiving the start in center field Tuesday for Atlanta.

Bader isn't in the lineup Tuesday versus Philadelphia.

Bader has not hit well to begin 2026 and will get an opportunity to reset on the bench Tuesday. The outfielder has gone hitless in the majority of the games played so far and has yet to have a multi-hit game. Jared Oliva has the start in center field and is batting ninth in Bader's absence.

Lee isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Philadelphia.

Lee is receiving his first rest day after getting off to rough start to 2026, going 2-for-16 in the last five games. Jerar Encarnacion gets the start in right field, batting seventh in Lee's place Tuesday.

Lockridge (hip) is starting in left field and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Red Sox.

The 29-year-old sat out Monday's series opener due to a hip issue but will end up missing only one game due to the injury. Lockridge will bat leadoff for the first time this season with Brice Turang (ankle/foot) banged up.

Yelich is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

Yelich started the previous seven games and posted four multi-hit performances during that stretch, but he'll take a seat Tuesday as Boston sends out ace lefty Garrett Crochet. Luis Matos is instead batting sixth as the designated hitter for Milwaukee.

Happ is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Tampa Bay.

It's the first day off this season for Happ, who is hitting just .200 but with four home runs across his first 45 plate appearances. The Cubs will roll out Michael Conforto in left field Tuesday against the Rays.

Walker will start in right field and bat cleanup in Tuesday's contest against the Nationals.

This marks the third consecutive start in the cleanup spot for Walker, and all three of them have been versus right-handers. The last two of the games have come with former cleanup man Masyn Winn in the lineup, so it appears Walker is now Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol's go-to cleanup hitter. Walker slugged his third home run of the season in Monday's loss to the Nationals and is slashing .314/.385/.629 in his first 10 contests this season. He also ranks in the 99th percentile in hard-hit rate and 94th percentile in barrel rate.

Church is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Nationals.

It marks the second time in a row that the left-handed-hitting Church has been out of the lineup versus a righty. Church tallied three base knocks on Opening Day but has gone hitless over 23 plate appearances since then. Thomas Saggese is in left field again Tuesday and looks to have leapfrogged Church in the pecking order.
