Pederson (shoulder) remains out of the lineup Thursday against the Brewers, Andy McCullough of the LA Times reports.

Thursday will mark the second straight absence for Pederson, who departed Tuesday's game with what the team diagnosed as a bruised AC joint. Pederson has not made significant progress over the last two days, and the LA Times reported Wednesday that the outfielder could be headed for the DL if he doesn't demonstrate improvement in the near future.

Goins scored as a pinch-runner on a wild pitch in Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

The infielder is seemingly being faded out of the Jays' game plan altogether. After being the starting second baseman for a majority of the season, Goins has only started in one game since June 17, and he's only played in five of the team's last ten contests. With Devon Travis and Troy Tulowitzki both healthy for the first time this year, Goins spot on the roster is a delicate one to say the least.

Cabrera went 3-for-4 with a solo shot, three RBI and two runs in Wednesday's 10-3 crushing of the Marlins.

The Marlins were the last MLB team to give up a Cabrera homer -- partly because he spent the first five seasons of his career in Miami -- but the first baseman made up for lost time with two in less than 24 hours. His drive Wednesday off Dustin McGowan's 95-mph fastball hit off the brick wall behind the left-field seats, an estimated 459-foot drive, according to Statcast. It was career homer No. 426 for Miggy, tying him with Billy Williams on the all-time list. The veteran is slashing .301/.375/.542 through 299 at-bats this season.

Pederson (shoulder) could end up on the DL if he doesn't show any progress soon, Andy McCullough of the LA Times reports.

Pederson left Tuesday's game with a bruised AC joint after slamming into the outfield wall and is currently considered day-to-day. He is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game as Trayce Thompson gets the start in center against the Brewers. If Pederson does end up missing time on the disabled list, Trayce Thompson will likely earn most of the time in center while Howie Kendrick figures to get more time in left.

Pederson (shoulder) is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers.

He left Tuesday's game with a bruised AC joint and was considered day-to-day, but given the force at which he crashed into the outfield wall Tuesday, it's not surprising that he is out of the lineup Wednesday. Trayce Thompson will start in center field and hit sixth against Milwaukee.

Turner (toe) is back in the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers.

He had four extra-base hits and six RBI in the four games prior to the minor toe injury that forced him to miss one game. Turner will bat third against righty Junior Guerra on Wednesday, and should re-assume the everyday duties at the hot corner.

Ozuna had two hits and scored a run in his return to the lineup Tuesday against the Tigers.

After missing a couple of games with a minor wrist injury, Ozuna went right back to work in his return with a 2-for-5 night. Ozuna continues to beast his way through the 2016 season, slashing .321/.375/.570 with 16 home runs, 44 RBI and 48 runs scored over 74 games.

Soler (hamstring) has yet to be sent on a rehab assignment, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Rather than begin a rehab assignment, Soler will be traveling with the Cubs on their upcoming trip to New York. The team has yet to reveal a timetable for Soler's return, who's most recent activity had been participating in batting practice.

Miller has raised his average 76 points over the last two months, and is now hitting .500 (7-for-14) over the last three games after blasting a solo homer in Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox.

The offseason acquisition from the Mariners started his Rays stint mired in the worst slump of his career, and didn't cross the Mendoza Line for good until May 16. He's significantly picked it up since then, and seems to be hitting his stride in the latter half of June. Miller has reached safely in 11 of his last 12 contests, and has half of his 10 homers on the season during the month.

Carpenter homered as part of a 2-for-3 game with two walks, two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's win over the Royals.

Carpenter now has three homers in his past three games to raise his total to 14. After setting a career high with 28 home runs last season, Carpenter is on pace to hit 30 in 2016. Carpenter's batting line is up to .300/.420/.592. The resulting 1.012 OPS would be a career best by a whopping 139 points.
