Henriquez has emerged as the Marlins' top high-leverage option, and over his last 11 appearances he's collected two wins, two holds and four saves with a 0.84 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 10.2 innings.

The third baseman launched a two-run homer off Dean Kremer in the first inning. although the lead didn't last long for Atlanta. Riley snapped a 13-game homer drought with the blast, but his power was showing signs of returning before Saturday -- over his last 12 contests, he's slashing .292/.333/.479 with four doubles and a triple among his 14 hits. On the season, Riley's up to 13 home runs and 45 RBI in 88 games, but a .761 OPS would be his lowest mark since 2020.

Trevino is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

With top backstop Tyler Stephenson seeing less time at designated hitter of late and most of his starts behind the dish, Trevino has begun to see his playing time dip. The veteran has also gone 1-for-14 with four strikeouts over his last four starts.

Hinds is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Hinds was included in the lineup in four of the past five games while Cincinnati faced a parade of southpaws, but he'll be back on the bench Sunday against Zack Wheeler. Hinds looks as though he'll be limited to the short side of a platoon in right field with Will Benson until Jake Fraley (shoulder) returns from the injured list.

Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Upon returning from the injured list Friday, Marte started the two straight games at third base, going 0-for-5 with two walks and an RBI. Though he looks to be the Reds' preferred option at the hot corner now that he's healthy, Marte will be rested Sunday and will give way to Christian Encarnacion-Strand.

Lile is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

With southpaw Garrett Crochet on the bump for Boston, Lile will be one of three lefty-hitting Nationals who will head to the bench, joining CJ Abrams and Luis Garcia. Alex Call will step in as the starting right fielder in place of Lile, who is slashing .258/.303/.339 with one home run and two steals in 16 games since receiving his second call-up of the season in mid-June.

Abrams is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

With the Nationals and Red Sox wrapping up their series with a day game and Garrett Crochet on the bump for Boston, Washington skipper Dave Martinez viewed Sunday as an optimal time to give Abrams a day off. Paul DeJong will fill in at shortstop while Abrams exits the starting nine for the first time since June 8.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

The Red Sox are sending Garrett Crochet to the hill, so Garcia will retreat to the bench after starting the first two games of the series. Amed Rosario will replace Garcia at second base.

Ruiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Ruiz will get a breather after he returned from the 7-day injured list Friday and started behind the plate in the first two games of the series with Boston, going 2-for-8 with an RBI. Riley Adams will step in as the Nationals' catcher Sunday.
