Beer was diagnosed with a dislocated left shoulder after leaving Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

Beer is 4-for-10 with a home run, a double, three RBI and four runs since making his major-league debut last week, but the dislocated shoulder may bring an early end to his first taste of the big leagues. The 24-year-old's status should be updated within the next couple days, but he'll likely require a trip to the injured list.

Beer was removed from Tuesday's game against the Dodgers with an apparent left arm injury, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Beer suffered the injury during the second inning when he landed awkwardly on his left arm when diving for a ball at first base, and he was unable to finish the frame. The 24-year-old exited the contest before making his first plate appearance. He should be considered day-to-day until the team updates his status.

Pederson is not starting Tuesday against the Rockies.

Pederson historically gets his days off against left-handers, but Tuesday will mark the third time this month he is idle against a righty starter (Jon Gray). Adam Duvall shifts to center field as Eddie Rosario draws the start in left field Tuesday.

Winker (ribs) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

Winker's last game action came nearly a month ago Aug. 15. That suggests he may need more than a game or two before he's ready to return, though the Reds are locked into a very tight playoff race, which could inspire them to bring Winker back as quickly as possible.

Belt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 9-1 win over San Diego.

The first baseman is locked in at the plate with a six-game hitting streak. In that span, Belt has gone 11-for-25 (.440) with four homers, nine RBI, nine runs scored and three doubles. The 33-year-old sports a .258/.364/.573 slash line with 24 long balls, 50 RBI, 53 runs scored and three stolen bases in 327 plate appearances overall.

Turner went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Monday's 5-1 win over Arizona.

Turner roped a two-run double in the first inning and added a solo shot in the seventh for some extra insurance. He's gone just 5-for-28 (.179) over his last eight games but all five hits have gone for extra bases and he's racked up nine RBI during that span. Turner is now slashing .275/.364/.475 with 80 RBI and 45 extra-base hits on the year.

Turner went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in an 8-0 triumph against the Padres on Sunday.

Turner doubled Los Angeles' lead with his seventh-inning shot to left center off San Diego reliever Emilio Pagan to snap a 13 at-bat hitless stretch. The veteran third baseman's last three hits have all left the yard, though he's struggled in September with a .179/.273/.410 slash line in 12 games.

Harper went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Colorado.

The 28-year-old is in great form at the plate, riding a nine-game hitting streak with six homers, nine RBI and seven runs scored in that span. Harper's having his best season since 2017 with a .307/.421/.611 slash line, 32 homers, 72 RBI, 87 runs scored and 12 stolen bases through 518 plate appearances.

Belt will hit the bench Sunday against the Cubs.

The Giants will load up on righties against southpaw Justin Steele. Wilmer Flores (hamstring) returns from the injured list to start at first base.

McCutchen will sit Sunday against the Rockies.

McCutchen has been cold at the plate for quite some time, hitting .170/.265/.340 over his last 30 games. Matt Vierling will take over in left field Sunday.
