Wade isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Padres, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Wade will take a seat with the Giants slated to face off against Cy Young candidate Blake Snell. J.D. Davis gets the call at first base and is set to hit fourth in Wade's absence.

Ellis cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Ellis is no longer on the Phillies' 40-man roster, but he looks set to remain in the organization at least through the end of the season. The utility infielder saw action in 12 games for the Phillies this season, producing an .858 OPS.

Flores (knee) exited Sunday's game versus the Dodgers with right knee discomfort, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Flores went 2-for-2 in the contest before he was replaced by J.D. Davis. It doesn't appear to be a long-term concern, but with the Giants fading fast in the wild-card race, Flores may get some extra time off over the last week of the season if he's not feeling 100 percent.

Torkelson went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Athletics.

In his first multi-hit game since Sept. 15, Torkelson delivered his 33rd double of the season, though it was his third-inning single that drove in the only two runs of the contest. The 24-year-old has had a nice sophomore campaign, as he's now up to 88 RBI across 153 games. He's collected 19 of those RBI in 21 games this month.

Wade went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning loss to the Dodgers.

Wade tied the game at 2-2 with his fifth-inning blast. He'd sat out the last two games with the Giants facing left-handed starters in each of those contests. Through 17 games in September, Wade has gone 18-for-52 (.346) with four homers and 10 RBI. The first baseman is at a .262/.376/.428 slash line with 17 long balls, 45 RBI, 63 runs scored and two stolen bases through 130 games this season in a strong-side platoon role.

Olson went 4-for-8 with a double, a walk, one RBI and two runs scored over both games of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Nationals.

Olson did most of his damage in a 3-for-5 performance in the nightcap. The first baseman has been dialed in at the plate in September, batting .352 (31-for-88) with 10 home runs and three doubles over 23 contests this month. He's up to a .281/.388/.606 slash line with 53 homers, 133 RBI, 124 runs scored, one stolen base and 27 doubles through 156 games overall.

Bell went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-1 victory over the Brewers.

Bell popped a 379-foot homer off Freddy Peralta in the third inning for his 22nd of the year. He has enjoyed a nice turnaround since joining the Marlins from the Guardians at the trade deadline, hitting .276 with 11 home runs, 26 runs and 21 RBI over 48 games. Bell had previously hit .233 with 11 home runs, 26 runs and 48 RBI over 97 games in Cleveland.

Guerrero went 2-for-5 with two homers in Sunday's win over the Rays.

Guerrero looks to be back on track after going 1-for-13 in his previous five games. He smacked three homers in three games prior to that. The 24-year-old Guerrero is up to 26 homers and 94 RBI on the year while batting .266 with a .793 OPS through 660 plate appearances.

Diaz was diagnosed with right hamstring tightness after leaving Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

The 32-year-old went 1-for-2 with a run scored before he exited Sunday's contest with the injury. It's unclear if Diaz will require an MRI at this point, and he should be considered day-to-day heading into Tuesday's series opener at Boston.

Choi is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Choi is hitless in 20 at-bats since being acquired by San Diego, and he'll sit Sunday with southpaw Drew Rom on the mound for St. Louis. Garrett Cooper will start at first base and bat sixth.
