  • Giants' Jerar Encarnacion: Reinstated from injured list

    The Giants activated Encarnacion (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Encarnacion is not in the lineup for Monday's game against Pittsburgh, but he should see a healthy amount of playing time down the stretch as the Giants see how he fits into their long-term plans. The 27-year-old has been limited to only eight contests at the big-league level in 2025 due to a fractured hand and more recently due to an oblique strain.

  • Jakob Marsee CF | MIA

    Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Gaining foothold in lineup

    Marsee will start in center field and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Astros.

    Since getting called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Marsee seems to have quickly established himself as a regular in the Miami outfield. He started all three games of the Marlins' weekend series against the Yankees, going 4-for-8 with three doubles, one triple, four walks, two runs and one RBI. Marsee batted out of the No. 9 spot in his MLB debut, but he's now moved up to sixth in the order in each of his last three starts, with all coming against right-handed pitchers.

  • Derek Hill CF | PHI

    Marlins' Derek Hill: Activated from 10-day IL

    The Marlins activated Hill (finger) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Hill is ready to go after missing the past two weeks of action with a sprained left middle finger. With recent call-up Jakob Marsee soaking up the playing time in center field and Dane Myers shifting over to right field, Hill might find starts hard to come by.

  • Max Kepler LF | ARI

    Phillies' Max Kepler: Sitting against lefty again

    Kepler is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Orioles.

    The Phillies have platooned both Kepler and Brandon Marsh since the trade deadline. The right-handed-hitting Weston Wilson will start in left field in place of Kepler on Monday as the Orioles send lefty Cade Povich to the hill.

  • Brandon Marsh LF | PHI

    Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Out again versus southpaw

    Marsh is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.

    Southpaw Cade Povich is on the hill for the Orioles, marking the second time in as many games versus lefties since the trade deadline that the lefty-swinging Marsh has been on the bench in favor of the right-handed-hitting Harrison Bader. Marsh is slashing just .200/.281/.260 against southpaws this season.

  • Mickey Moniak LF | COL

    Rockies' Mickey Moniak: Out again versus lefty

    Moniak is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Southpaw Eric Lauer is on the bump for the Blue Jays, and the left-handed-hitting Moniak has now been absent from the lineup three of the last four times the Rockies have faced a left-handed starter. Tyler Freeman will handle right field and Braxton Fulford will serve as the designated hitter for the Rockies in Monday's series opener.

  • Joey Wiemer RF | WAS

    Marlins' Joey Wiemer: Scooped up by Fish

    The Marlins claimed Wiemer off waivers from the Royals on Monday.

    Wiemer had been booted off the Royals' 40-man roster after slashing a disappointing .182/.291/.312 with nine home runs at Triple-A Omaha this season. The 26-year-old will look to get back on track offensively at Triple-A Jacksonville.

  • Eli White CF | BOS

    Braves' Eli White: Shakes and bakes in Sunday's win

    White went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI during a 4-2 win over the Reds in Sunday's MLB Speedway Classic.

    The 31-year-old was the star of the contest, powering Atlanta's offense with a three-run homer in the second inning and a solo shot in the seventh, with the second blast bouncing off the track at Bristol Motor Speedway. White has started four straight games in right field while filling in for Ronald Acuna (calf), and since replacing the All-Star during Tuesday's contest, he's gone 6-for-19 (.316) with four runs and seven RBI in addition to Sunday's long balls.

  • Heliot Ramos RF | NYY

    Giants' Heliot Ramos: Multi-hit effort in victory

    Ramos went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, an RBI and a walk in Sunday's 12-4 win over the Mets.

    Ramos drew a walk in the third inning before coming around to score on a three-run homer. The 25-year-old outfielder added an RBI single in the fourth and another base hit in the ninth before scoring again. Ramos has recorded six multi-hit performances over 15 games since the All-Star break, slashing .305/.386/.356 with nine runs scored, four RBI, three doubles and one stolen base across 70 plate appearances during that span.

  • Jarred Kelenic LF | TEX

    Braves' Jarred Kelenic: Optioned back to minors

    Atlanta optioned Kelenic to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

    Kelenic had been recalled last week but didn't receive a single plate appearance during his stint with the big club. He's being replaced on the 26-man roster by Jonathan Ornelas, who was recalled from Gwinnett.
