Davidson was removed from Wednesday's game against the Twins with a foot injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Davidson remained in the game for a while after fouling a ball off his foot in the sixth inning, but he was eventually replaced in the outfield when the Giants' defense took the field in the ninth. X-rays on his foot came back negative shortly after the game, per Pavlovic, but Scott Bandura and Grant McCray could be candidates to start in right field if Davidson is unable to play in Friday's series opener against the Dodgers.

Lawlar is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Colorado.

Lawlar looks to be slipping into a secondary role, as this will be the fourth time he's been out of the lineup over the Diamondbacks' last five games against right-handers. Tim Tawa will patrol center field for Arizona.

Lara is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Philadelphia.

Lara started in right field in the first game of the series Tuesday, but he'll take a seat Wednesday for the second time in the last three contests. Sal Frelick will patrol right field and bat eighth for the Brewers.

Acuna (leg) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

Acuna was removed from Tuesday's contest after fouling a ball off his left leg. X-rays were negative and Acuna informed the club that he was fine to play Wednesday, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com. However, with the National League East already wrapped up, Atlanta will rest its star outfielder for a day just to be safe. Brewer Hicklen will cover right field Wednesday in Acuna's stead.

Cruz is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Cardinals.

The lefty-swinging Cruz will retreat to the bench as the Cardinals send left-hander Matthew Liberatore to the bump. Jake Mangum will patrol center field and will bat ninth for the Pirates.

Cox went 0-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Twins.

Cox drew a walk in the first inning before recording his team-leading 15th stolen base of the season, and he also logged an RBI on a fielder's choice in the ninth. The 25-year-old has racked up seven stolen bases in September while batting .260 with 13 runs scored and seven RBI in 83 plate appearances. Overall, he's slashing .272/.317/.412 with 25 runs scored, 16 RBI and four long balls across 152 plate appearances this season.

Lile is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Detroit.

The left-handed-hitting Lile will get a break as the Tigers send southpaw Framber Valdez to the bump. Dylan Crews, Jacob Young and James Wood will be in the outfield, and Andres Chaparro will be the designated hitter for the Nationals.

Moniak went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

Moniak led off the third inning with his 23rd home run of the season, a small positive in what has otherwise been a slow September. He has hit only .170 across 53 at-bats for the month while striking out 38.2 percent of the time, and a slow second half has dropped his overall batting average to .242 on the season. Nevertheless, Moniak is one long ball away from matching his career high.

Harris went 2-for-4 with a stolen base during Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Reds.

Harris recorded his fifth multi-hit game over his last 10 games. The 25-year-old stole his 12th base of the season in the seventh inning, trying to rally a comeback for Atlanta. This year, Harris has slashed .291/.319/.488 with 26 homers, 85 RBI and 12 stolen bases over 604 plate appearances.

Myers went 1-for-4 with a solo homer and a strikeout during Tuesday's 4-0 win over Atlanta.

Myers stepped to the plate in the sixth inning and blasted his eighth long ball of the season to extend the lead for Cincinnati. That marked his second homer in his last five games. This year, the 30-year-old has slashed .260/.345/.381 with eight homers, 27 RBI and 10 stolen bases over 330 plate appearances.
