Pages is in the lineup as the center fielder and is batting ninth Thursday against the Padres.
Pages was sent to center field off the bench in Wednesday night's game after Miguel Rojas was removed following the fourth inning due to a thigh injury. Tommy Edman started in center field, but moved to shortstop with Pages entering the game. With Rojas not expected to return until Sunday, expect Pages to find increased playing time in the final few games of the season.

Dodgers' Andy Pages: Belts homer Friday
Rotowire
Pages went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-4 win against Colorado.
Pages put the Dodgers on the board in the fifth inning with a 407-foot solo shot. The rookie outfielder finished with his second straight two-hit game, and he's driven in four runs over the pair of contests. Pages has been in and out of the lineup throughout September, but he's started each of Los Angeles' past three contests in center field while Tommy Edman temporarily moved to shortstop in the absence of Miguel Rojas. Rojas returned to the lineup Friday while Edman began the game on the bench, though both of those players are lineup regulars for the Dodgers, meaning Pages' recent run as a starter may be short-lived.

Rotowire
The Dodgers are expected to recall Pages from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Pages was optioned to Oklahoma City on Aug. 19 after spending four months with the Dodgers. In the majors this season, he has slashed .246/.305/.388 with nine home runs and 36 RBI across 394 plate appearances. During his upcoming stint with the Dodgers, Pages is unlikely to serve as much more than a short-side platoon player or fourth outfielder.

Dodgers' Andy Pages: Reaches base four times Sunday
Rotowire
Pages went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks and a run in Sunday's 6-5 extra-inning win over Pittsburgh.
Pages appears to be perking up at the plate again, slashing .389/.522/.611 with four doubles over his past six games. Prior to that, he endured an ice-cold nine-game stretch during which he went 3-for-31with 10 strikeouts. It's no surprise that the rookie has had his share of ups and downs, but Pages has maintained a semi-regular spot in the Dodgers' lineup, starting four of the past six games. However, his playing time could be impacted by Mookie Betts' expected return from a hand injury Monday, as Betts is slated to move back to right field after logging most of his time in the infield prior to his injury.

Rotowire
Pages went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's win over the Reds.

Dodgers' Andy Pages: Notches first big-league steal
Rotowire
Pages went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 5-0 win against the Padres.
Pages withstood a Padres review challenge to pick up his first theft as a major-leaguer following an eighth-inning single. The 23-year-old hasn't been a big base-stealer as a pro, topping out at seven thefts in the minors, though he does have 83rd percentile sprint speed, per Statcast. Pages continues to see everyday playing time for the Dodgers, but he's tailed off a bit of late with a .158/.261/.158 slash line and 34.8 percent strikeout rate over his past six games.

Dodgers' Andy Pages: Expected to receive promotion
Rotowire
The Dodgers are expected to recall Pages from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to Tuesday's game against the Nationals, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
Pages, 23, is off to a scorching start at Oklahoma City, slashing .371/.452/.694 with five home runs and 15 RBI. Jason Heyward has had trouble getting over the hump with his back injury, so Pages could receive regular reps in a corner-outfield spot while Heyward recuperates. The right-handed hitter can also handle center field, so he would be an option to start at that position versus left-handed pitching on days the lefty-hitting James Outman is out of the lineup.
