Edman (ankle) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Edman began a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, going 4-for-14 with a run scored over five contests with the team heading into Monday. The 30-year-old has been sidelined since early August while nursing a right ankle sprain, and once activated he should get work at second base while also getting starts over Michael Conforto in the outfield.

Fermin is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Seattle.

Fermin started each of the previous three games -- two at third base and one at second base -- while Nolan Gorman shifted to first base to cover for the suspended Willson Contreras. However, Alec Burleson (wrist) is back from the 10-day injured list and will handle first base Monday. Fermin has fared well in his limited chances this season, slashing .278/.381/.417 with one home run and a 6:6 K:BB over 20 contests.

Sosa will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Mets.

Per Matt Gelb of The Athletic, second baseman Bryson Stott could see some time at shortstop after Trea Turner was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain, but Sosa is the more likely candidate to serve as the primary option at the position in Turner's absence. Sosa had handled a utility role for most of the season, but he's acquitted himself well at the plate when called upon, slashing .273/.309/.426 with seven home runs, one steal, 33 RBI and 25 runs over 233 plate appearances. The Phillies remain optimistic that Turner will be able to return from the IL before the postseason, but Sosa could provide some short-term value in deeper leagues while handling a near-everyday role at shortstop.

The Phillies selected Walton's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Walton will provide infield depth while the Phillies deal with the absences of Trea Turner (hamstring) and Alec Bohm (shoulder), both of whom were placed on the injured list Monday. The 31-year-old has slashed .270/.356/.396 with 13 home runs over 504 plate appearances at the Triple-A level this season.

Donovan (groin) will take live batting practice Monday and, if that goes well, will begin a rehab assignment Tuesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

The 28-year-old has been sidelined since mid-August with a left groin strain but is almost game-ready. The Cardinals begin their final homestand Sept. 15, and it's likely that's when they're targeting Donovan's return from the 10-day injured list.

Iglesias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Iglesias will hit the bench while Jake Cronenworth shifts over from shortstop to make his first start at shortstop since the 2022 season. With Xander Bogaerts (foot) out indefinitely, the Padres could prioritize offense over defense by phasing out Iglesias and leaning more heavily on Cronenworth and Luis Arraez in the middle infield, which would open up a regular spot in the lineup for the hot-hitting Gavin Sheets. Iglesias had already sat out the Padres' previous two matchups against right-handed starters, though San Diego went with Mason McCoy rather than Cronenworth at shortstop in both of those contests.

Kim will start at second base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Orioles.

After being activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Kim came off the bench for the ensuing two contests, but he's now started in three straight games with right-handers on the mound for the opposition. The rookie could end up holding down a strong-side platoon role at the keystone until Tommy Edman (ankle) returns from the IL.

Donovan (groin) hopes to begin a rehab assignment sometime during the upcoming week, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Donovan has been upping his baseball activities as he works his way back from a left groin strain and appears almost ready to test things out in a game setting. He could be eyeing a return Sept. 15 when the Cardinals return to St. Louis to begin a homestand. Donovan has been sidelined since mid-August.

McLain went 1-for-1 with two walks and a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Mets.

McLain and other Cincinnati hitters jumped on New York right-hander Jonah Tong for homers in three consecutive innings. He's launched three homers in the last seven games and extended a hit streak to nine contests, during which he's gone 11-for-27 (.407) with three home runs, six RBI and eight runs. His .230 batting average is at its highest point since April 2.

Edwards isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

The switch-hitting Edwards carries a .588 OPS against southpaws on the year, so he'll retreat to the dugout Saturday against left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Maximo Acosta will get the nod at second base instead while batting ninth.
