Moniak is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Yankees.

The left-handed-hitting Moniak doesn't always sit against lefty hurlers, but he'll begin Thursday's tilt on the bench as the Yankees send southpaw Max Fried to the bump. Jordan Beck will play right field and bat eighth for the Rockies.

Marsh was removed from Thursday's game versus the Astros due to a right foot bruise, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Marsh fouled a ball off his foot during a plate appearance in the bottom of the eighth inning and was replaced on defense before the top of the ninth. The Phillies could send the outfielder for X-rays after the contest. Marsh was 0-for-3 with two strikeouts before departing.

Judge is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Rockies.

Judge was pulled after six innings in his first game off the injured list Tuesday and in the eighth inning of his second game back Wednesday. He'll now sit out the series finale versus the Rockies as the Yankees ease him back into a full-time role. Jasson Dominguez will be in right field and bat third for the Bronx Bombers.

Bellinger went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-1 win over Colorado on Wednesday.

Bellinger capped the scoring in the contest with a solo shot to right field in the eighth inning. Since returning to action Aug. 23 following a nearly month-long stay on the injured list, Bellinger has hit safely in 13 of 16 games, posting a .288/.294/.409 slash line with two homers, 13 runs and 10 RBI during that span. The veteran outfielder has experienced a drop-off in power this year, however, as he's slugged just 13 homers through 118 contests after going deep 29 times across 152 regular-season games last year.

Siri went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 6-4 win over the Red Sox on Wednesday.

Siri hit one of three Angels long balls Wednesday, belting a two-run shot to right-center field in the third inning. That snapped a 27-game homerless stretch for the veteran outfielder, who batted a meager .113 with an ugly 40.3 percent strikeout rate during the power drought. Siri seems to be in a platoon in right field at the moment, as he's started each of Los Angeles' past two contests against lefty starters while sitting in each of the team's past two games against righties.

Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said Thursday that Thomas (side) will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Thomas had to be scratched from Thursday's lineup against the Rays after tweaking his left side pregame. Though he will be eligible to return later this month, it's an injury that could end Thomas' regular season. He's gone just 7-for-41 with one home run in 21 contests since joining Atlanta at the trade deadline.

Ewing went 3-for-4 with two runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Marlins.

The rookie outfielder was one of three Mets to collect three hits in a 15-run, 15-hit outburst from the offense. Ewing has hit safely in six straight games, batting .478 (11-for-23) during that blistering stretch with two doubles, a homer, a steal, six runs and seven RBI. His 23 stolen bases on the season puts him one back of Mookie Wilson's 1981 campaign for the franchise rookie record in that category, but teammate Carson Benge is also in the hunt for the record with 22 steals.

Thomas was scratched from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Rays due to left side tightness, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Thomas had been slated to receive a rare start in left field, but now his status moving forward is up in the air. Dominic Smith will enter the lineup at designated hitter, and Brewer Hicklen will shift from DH to left field for Atlanta.

Conine went 3-for-6 with a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Mets.

Seven different Marlins hitters recorded multiple hits en route to a 20-hit, 14-run eruption from the offense, and it wasn't enough as the pitching staff coughed up 15 runs. Conine has cooled down significantly since his August power surge, and over his last 19 games he's sagged to a .194/.324/.258 slash line with one home run, six RBI and a 28.4 percent strikeout rate.

The Nationals recalled Pinckney from Triple-A Rochester on Thursday.

He'll absorb the roster spot vacated by Nasim Nunez (bereavement). Pinckney has held his own during his time in the big leagues this season, going 6-for-22 with one home run and one stolen bases. He'll likely return to Rochester next week when Nunez rejoins the active roster.
