Garcia isn't in the lineup for Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against the Pirates.

Garcia went 2-for-3 with one run and a strikeout during the first game of the doubleheader. He'll get a breather with Kyle Farmer taking over at shortstop during the nightcap.

DeJong went 0-for-2 with an RBI sacrifice fly, two walks and a run in a loss to the Reds on Sunday.

It wasn't the most thrilling of stat lines for fantasy managers, but there was certainly some production to be gleaned from DeJong's solid day. The shortstop still sports an impressive .369 on-base percentage on the season thanks in part to a career-high 12.6 percent walk rate, but he's seen his average drop 37 points to .284 thus far in September thanks to a middling 10-for-42 tally at the plate over the first 14 games of the month.

Rojas (hand) went 2-for-3 with a two-RBI double and a run scored in Sunday's 8-1 win over the Phillies in Game 2 of their doubleheader.

Rojas was not in the lineup for the first game of the twin bill, but he made an impact in the nightcap. The shortstop's big hit came in the sixth inning, when he scored Garrett Cooper and Jazz Chisholm on a double. Rojas came around to score himself on a Chad Wallach homer. The 31-year-old Rojas is slashing .359/.438/.551 with two homers, 16 RBI, 12 runs scored and three stolen bases in 26 games this year.

Rojas (hand) is starting at shortstop and batting eighth in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Phillies.

The 31-year-old sat out the matinee after sustaining a hand injury during Saturday's contest, but he'll rejoin the lineup for Game 2. Rojas is 9-for-24 with three doubles over his past seven games.

Edman is not in the lineup Sunday against the Reds, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Edman started the past 16 games and will receive the day off for the series finale. Rangel Ravelo will receive the start in right field for the Cardinals.

Rojas (hand) is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Phillies, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

The 31-year-old injured his hand during Saturday's contest and had X-rays come back negative, but he'll miss at least one game as a result. It's unclear if Rojas will be available for either of Sunday's games. Jazz Chisholm will shift to shortstop while Isan Diaz starts at second base in the matinee.

Ahmed went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners.

Ahmed, who has primarily batted in the lower third of the order, hit out of the two-hole for the second time in four games. As the Diamondbacks infuse the lineup with prospects and less-proven talent, Ahmed will be given a slot higher in the batting order among the team's best hitters. The shortstop has seven hits in his last 15 at-bats.

Rojas had X-rays on his hand come back negative after exiting Saturday's loss to the Phillies, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas was lifted for a pinch hitter during the seventh inning, and it's unclear how he sustained the injury, though it doesn't appear to be serious. Jazz Chisholm and Isan Diaz would likely work at shortstop and second base should Rojas be forced to miss time.

Edman went 2-for-5 with a stolen base in Saturday's 7-1 win over the Reds.

Both of Edman's hits were singles. His first came in the first inning, which was followed by his second stolen base of the year. The 25-year-old has produced four homers, 19 RBI, 21 runs scored and a .259/.320/.403 slash line in 37 games.

Garcia isn't in Saturday's lineup against the Cardinals.

Garcia went 1-for-8 with four strikeouts over the last two games, and he'll retreat to the bench Saturday. Kyle Farmer will serve as the shortstop in his place.
