Edman is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Arizona.

Edman had three hits and drove in the deciding run during Wednesday's extra-innings victory over the Diamondbacks, but he'll get a day off in Thursday's series finale. Miguel Rojas will be at second base and Andy Pages will play center field for the Dodgers.

Vargas is not in the lineup for Thursday's tilt against the Dodgers.

Vargas had started each of the previous four contests at first base, but he'll begin Thursday's festivities on the bench. Tim Tawa is handling first base and batting eighth for the Diamondbacks in the series finale.

Sosa went 3-for-4 with three home runs and five RBI in Wednesday's 11-1 rout of the Marlins.

Making his return from a groin injury that had sidelined him since Sept. 12, the 29-year-old utility player came into the game with seven homers in 85 games on the season, but Sosa padded that total significantly with solo blasts in the fourth and seventh innings sandwiched around a three-run shot in the fifth. It's his first career multi-homer performance, and with Sosa getting the start at short in place of Trea Turner (hamstring), he remarkably became the first shortstop in Phillies history with a three-homer game. Turner could be activated from the IL on Friday, but Sosa figured to be busy over the final four games of the regular season as the team rests starters around the diamond ahead of the playoffs -- Sosa has seen action at every position except catcher, first base and right field in 2025.

McLain is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates.

McLain is in a 6-for-46 drought at the plate, so he will begin Thursday's series finale on the bench. Gavin Lux will handle second base and bat third for the Reds.

Marte batted leadoff and went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Wednesday's 5-4 extra-innings loss to the Dodgers.

Marte scored after leading of the first inning with a double and then again as part of a three-run rally that he ignited with a single in the eighth to set up extra innings. He was in position to score a third run as the designated runner in the 10th with the team's best hitters due up. However, manager Torey Lovullo opted to have Geraldo Perdomo sacrifice bunt Marte to third, which prompted two intentional walks before the Dodgers got out unscathed. The Diamondbacks still remain one game out of the wild-card spot, and Marte has been instrumental in the club's drive. He's gone 12-for-32 (.375) with four doubles, one home run, five RBI and five runs scored over the last seven contests.

Edman went 3-for-5 with a run and an RBI in a 5-4 win in 11 innings against Arizona on Wednesday.

Edman came up with a clutch knock in the 11th inning when he singled to center field with two outs to produce what ended up being the winning run. Overall, the infielder/outfielder collected three singles in the contest, marking his first three-hit game since he went 4-for-5 against the Mets all way back on May 31. It's been a rough campaign for Edman -- he has a meager .229/.278/.387 slash line through 96 games and has missed substantial time due to injuries -- but Los Angeles will likely look to him to provide a spark in the playoffs as he did last year when he was named the NLCS MVP.

The Phillies designated Walton for assignment Wednesday.

He's clearing out to make room on the roster for the return of Edmundo Sosa (groin). Walton played infrequently after being added to the roster earlier this month, logging a total of nine plate appearances.

The Phillies activated Sosa (groin) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Sosa has missed the last couple weeks of action with a right groin strain, but he's been able to work out lately with no issues, clearing the way for his return to the active roster. The activation of Sosa could allow the Phillies to return Bryson Stott to second base until Trea Turner (hamstring) makes his way back this weekend.

Yorke went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Reds.

Yorke has started eight of Pittsburgh's last nine games, taking over as the team's primary second baseman. He's made good use of that opportunity, hitting .250 with four RBI and four runs scored. He's also currently riding a five-game hitting streak. Yorke is likely auditioning for a roster spot to begin the 2026 campaign.

Donovan went 4-for-5 with four doubles, one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Giants.

Donovan missed Monday's game due to groin tightness, but he was able to get cleared in time to play Tuesday. He played a vital role in the Cardinals' offense in this game with the quartet of two-baggers. He's up to 31 doubles on the year, which is three shy of his career-high total from 153 games last season. Donovan has added a .287/.354/.421 slash line with 10 home runs, 49 RBI, 63 runs scored and three stolen bases over 117 contests in 2025.
