Arenado's absence from the lineup Saturday against the Brewers is due to side soreness, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

The Rockies have nothing left to play for this season, so Arenado could sit Sunday as well, even if the injury is quite minor. If Arenado's season is indeed done, he'll end the year with career highs in batting average (.315), on-base percentage (.379) and OPS (.962) while posting his lowest strikeout rate (14.0 percent) since 2014. His 41 homers are just one shy of his career high and represent the third time he's reached the 40-homer mark.

Moustakas (elbow) is back in the lineup for Saturday's game against Colorado.

Moustakas sat for the last two games with an elbow issue but is ready to go following a brief absence. He'll bat third and play third base Saturday.

Arenado is not in the lineup Saturday against the Brewers.

Arenado has posted typically strong numbers down the stretch, hitting .370/.469/.667 with four homers over his last 14 games. He'll get a rest Saturday, with Ryan McMahon sliding over to third base and Garrett Hampson starting at second.

Segura (ankle) will sit again Saturday against the Marlins.

Segura hits the bench for the second straight game after leaving Thursday's contest with a sprained ankle. It's possible that he's already played his final game of the year. Sean Rodriguez starts at shortstop Saturday.

Ramirez (hand) remains on the bench Saturday against the Nationals.

Ramirez returned quickly from a broken hamate bone, but it wasn't enough to drag Cleveland into the playoffs, as the team was eliminated from contention following Friday's loss. With nothing left to play for, Ramirez may have played in his final game of the season already. Yu Chang starts at third base Saturday.

Bregman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 4-0 win over the Angels.

Bregman is up to 41 homers for the year, including six in his last 11 games. The third baseman has added 111 RBI and 120 runs scored in 154 games this season while slashing .296/.421/.595 in what has been a career year.

Machado went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Machado's game-tying blast came in the sixth inning off reliever Matt Andriese. The slugger is up to 31 homers, 83 RBI and 80 runs scored while slashing .253/.332/.455 in 154 games this season.

Urshela (hand) went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and another run scored in Friday's win over the Rangers.

Urshela extended the Yankees' lead with a home run in the sixth inning in his first game back after he was hit in the hand by a pitch during Tuesday's game. Across 437 at-bats this season, Urshela is slashing .316/.357/.538 with 21 home runs.

Newman went 2-for-4 with a walkoff home run, five RBI and a walk during a 6-5 victory against the Reds on Friday.

The 26-year-old delivered his fourth walkoff moment (one was an actual walk) of the season with a two-run blast in the ninth. Newman came into the night with just one home run at home this year, but his two long balls propelled the Pirates to a fifth straight win. Newman is batting .310 with 12 home runs, 64 RBI, 61 runs and 16 steals in 484 at-bats this season.

McMahon went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Friday's victory over the Brewers.

McMahon extended the Rockies' lead with a home run -- his 24th of the season -- in the seventh inning. Overall, the 24-year-old is slashing .252/.331/.456 with 83 RBI and 70 runs scored.
