Segura went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Braves.

Segura extended the Phillies lead with a two-run homer off Julio Teheran in the third inning. The 29-year-old shortstop now has 12 home runs, nine stolen bases and a team-best batting average of .284.

Longoria went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in a loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday.

Longoria got the Giants on the board in the sixth inning with his shot to left field, but it was all the scoring his team could muster in a 4-2 loss. The 33-year-old has put together a .259/.323/.453 slash line with 19 homers and 64 RBI over 117 games heading into the final stretch of the regular season.

Senzel has been diagnosed with a torn labrum in his left shoulder and will be shut down for the rest of the season, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Senzel hadn't seen the field in over a week, and the Reds finally announced the extent of the injury Thursday evening. It's unclear at this time whether he'll require surgery, but his 2019 campaign has come to an end. He slashed .256/.315/.427 with 12 home runs, 42 RBI and 14 stolen bases over in 104 games.

Senzel (shoulder) is not in Thursday's lineup against the Mariners.

He has been out of the lineup for over a week, and while he appeared off the bench last week, he hasn't done so since Sept. 7. Brian O'Grady is starting in center field and hitting seventh.

Machado is not in Thursday's lineup against the Cubs.

He has started the last 19 games and is hitting .209 with three home runs, one steal and a 14:10 K:BB in 67 at-bats over that stretch. Ty France will start at third base and hit sixth.

Newman is not in Thursday's lineup against the Giants.

Newman has hit safely in 15 of his last 16 games and is slashing .413/.486/.651 with three home runs and four steals over that stretch. Cole Tucker starts at shortstop and will hit sixth.

Moustakas went 3-for-4 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Moustakas returned to the starting nine after missing most of the last couple weeks with the wrist injury and blasted two homers, including a two-run shot in the ninth inning to break a 5-5 tie. The veteran infielder will play a pivotal role down the stretch for the Brewers, especially with Christian Yelich (kneecap) going down for the season Tuesday.

Longoria is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Pirates.

He is hitting .189 with one home run in 10 games this month. Corban Joseph will start at the hot corner and hit eighth.

Muncy (wrist) will be activated prior to Friday's game against the Mets, Alanna Rizzo of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

This had been the hope, and now we have confirmation that Muncy is expected to be ready to return this weekend. He is already flying to New York to meet the team there for the three-game series. In the meantime, Matt Beaty and David Freese are platooning at first base.

Senzel (shoulder) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Mariners.

The last time Senzel was in the starting lineup was Sept. 3, although he has appeared off the bench in several games since then. Phillip Ervin will start in center field against southpaw Marco Gonzales.
