Muncy (quad) is expected to return to the lineup Sunday against the Rockies, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

Muncy exited Friday's game with quad tightness and is out of the lineup Saturday. However, manager Dave Roberts called Muncy "playable" despite the absence and noted he expects Muncy back in the lineup Sunday.

Arenado is not in Saturday's lineup against the Dodgers.

Arenado smacked his 41st homer of the season in Friday's contest but will be out of the lineup for the second time in the past six games Saturday. Ryan McMahon will draw the start at third base and bat fifth in his place.

Muncy (quadriceps) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

This hardly comes as a surprise, as Muncy left Friday's game with quad tightness and the Dodgers have no reason to test their luck with him. Muncy felt the tightness while breaking out of the batter's box on his two-run double in the seventh inning. Justin Turner (ankle) returns to third base as David Freese mans first.

Segura (hamstring) is in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Indians, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Segura appeared set to return Friday after leaving Thursday's game with a hamstring cramp, but he didn't feel quite right in batting practice and the Phillies decided to scratch him from the lineup. Thankfully, it seems the one extra day was sufficient. Segura is batting sixth for Philadelphia with Jay Bruce slotting ahead of him at DH in an American League park.

Senzel will undergo surgery next week to repair the torn labrum in his right shoulder, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Senzel was shut down earlier this month, and unfortunately, surgery will be necessary. Manager David Bell said he hopes Senzel will be ready for Opening Day. The 24-year-old showed flashes of his upside this season and handled the transition to center field well, but he has played in just 343 games in four professional seasons and the durability questions aren't going away any time soon.

Muncy exited Friday's win over the Rockies due to a tight quad, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Muncy felt tightness in his quad while breaking out of the batter's box on his two-run double in the seventh inning. Though Muncy temporarily remained in the contest to run the bases, Jedd Gyorko came in to replace him at third base at the start of the eighth. Manager Dave Roberts indicated that Muncy will be reevaluated Saturday, at which point his availability for the evening game against Colorado will be determined.

Arenado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's loss at Dodger Stadium.

Arenado cracked open the scoring with a 399-foot solo homer off Clayton Kershaw in the first inning. It was his fourth career long ball off Kershaw and his team-leading 41st of the season. He also leads the Rockies in hits (179), RBI (118) and on-base percentage (.379).

Segura was scratched from Friday's starting lineup against the Indians due to an ankle injury, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Segura was initially listed in the starting lineup, but after going through batting practice, he's been scratched. Scott Kingery will move over to shortstop and Maikel Franco is set to man third.

McMahon is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Dodgers.

McMahon has struggled this month outside of a two-homer game Sunday, so manager Bud Black decided to hold him out Friday night. With McMahon out, Pat Valaika will cover second base, and Daniel Murphy will get the start at first.

Segura (hamstring) is in the lineup for Friday's game against the Indians.

Segura left Thursday's game with a hamstring camp and was sent for more tests, but those apparently did not reveal anything more serious. He will assume his regular spot at shortstop Friday night.
