House is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

House will yield to Paul DeJong at third base Friday after making three consecutive starts at the position. House is 9-for-43 (.209) with two home runs in September.

Hayes (back) will start at third base and bat seventh in Friday's game versus the Cubs.

Hayes didn't start the previous two tilts due to a back issue, but he entered Thursday's game against the Cubs as a defensive replacement and is back in the lineup Friday. The 28-year-old enters play Friday having gone hitless over his last five contests.

Hayes missed the last two games due to back soreness, Mike Petraglia of MLB.com reports. He did enter Thursday's 1-0 win over the Cubs as a defensive replacement in the ninth inning.

The back issue, which has bothered Hayes previously, cropped up during the Reds' series this week against the Cardinals. Cincinnati manager Terry Francona tried to get him time off then, but Spencer Steer came down with a neck injury. With Steer now back, Hayes can rest up. Francona said the third baseman, who's been managing the pain, could visit with a specialist by Monday. Sal Stewart served as the third baseman the last two games and presumably will continue to get the nod if Hayes misses more time.

Hayes isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Hayes will get a second straight day to rest after going 0-for-13 in his last four games. Sal Stewart will get the nod at third base instead, opening up first base for Spencer Steer.

Machado went 3-for-5 with a grand slam in Wednesday's 7-4 win over the Mets.

With the game tied in the fifth inning, the veteran slugger delivered in a massive way, launching a 401-foot shot off David Peterson to give San Diego a lead it never surrendered. It was Machado's 26th homer of the season and his third in the last four games, a stretch in which he's driven in eight runs across just 17 plate appearances. The 33-year-old continues to anchor the Padres' lineup and is now slashing .279/.340/.469 with 26 homers, 92 RBI, 86 runs, 33 doubles and 14 stolen bases through 645 plate appearances.

Rosario (sports hernia) went 5-for-21 with two home runs, two walks, one stolen base, four RBI and four runs in five games for Double-A San Antonio after being activated from the 60-day injured list Sept. 9.

After a rough start to the season at Triple-A El Paso, Rosario was assigned to the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on May 19. He had been playing regularly in the ACL for about two weeks before being shut down when he required surgery in June to address a sports hernia. Rosario was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at High-A Fort Wayne on Aug. 19 and then linked up with San Antonio for the tail end of the Texas League season.

Vientos is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Vientos has been one of the Mets' top hitters since the All-Star break, but he's cooled down a bit over the past couple weeks. Over his last 10 games, Vientos has gone just 5-for-33 (.152 average) with 11 strikeouts, so manager Carlos Mendoza will give the slugger the night off to get a mental reset. Starling Marte will replace Vientos as the Mets' designated hitter.

Karros is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Kyle Farmer will get the nod at third base Wednesday while Karros retreats to the bench for the second time in three games. Karros has received the majority of the starts at the hot corner in September but is slashing just .214/.267/.238 in 12 games so far this month.

Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Wednesday that Gorman could "potentially" see some start at first base following the season-ending injury to Willson Contreras (shoulder), Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Alec Burleson will be the team's primary first baseman down the stretch, but Gorman might also see some action there on days when Burleson plays the outfield. Gorman's playing-time outlook took a hit with the returns of Brendan Donovan and Nolan Arenado from the injured list, but Gorman now has another avenue to playing time, albeit a narrow one.

Hayes is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in St. Louis.

Hayes will receive Wednesday off after going hitless across his last four games. Sal Stewart will handle third base and bat fifth in Wednesday's matinee.
