Hernandez isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Thursday's game versus Miami.

Hernandez went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in Wednesday's win, putting an end to his six-game hitting streak. He'll now get a chance to catch his breath while Chris Taylor starts in left field and bats ninth.

The Marlins activated Brujan (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Thursday, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Brujan has been out all month due to a right shoulder AC joint sprain but is ready to return after playing a couple rehab games with Triple-A Jacksonville. He should see a good amount of playing time down the stretch in a super-utility role.

Rojas (leg) isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

A sore left leg prevented Rojas from playing in Wednesday's contest, and he'll need at least one more day to recover. Tommy Edman will move to shortstop while Rojas sits, allowing Andy Pages to pick up a start in center field and bat eighth.

Tatis went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 4-0 win against Houston on Wednesday.

Tatis struck out in each of his first three at-bats but came up clutch in his final plate appearance, swatting a solo shot that ended up being the first of back-to-back-to-back homers by San Diego. The long ball extended Tatis' hitting streak to eight games, during which he's slashed .364/.382/.848 with five home runs, nine RBI, nine runs and two stolen bases. Tatis has either hit a homer or swiped a bag in all but one game during that span.

Scott picked up a save against Houston on Wednesday by retiring both batters he faced, including one by strikeout.

Dylan Cease gave San Diego 8.1 scoreless frames, and Scott was brought in to finish off the Astros with a pair of runners on base in the ninth. The reliever struck out Yordan Alvarez, then got Alex Bregman to fly out to end the game. The save was Scott's 21st of the season but his first since Aug. 27, as most of his saves came while he was with Miami prior to the trade deadline. Robert Suarez, who pitched the previous three days, remains the most likely Padres reliever to handle save chances for the club.

Herrera went 3-for-5 with one RBI and one run scored in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Pirates.

Herrera is batting .320 (8-for-25) over eight games in September, though he's been in the backup role for much of the last week. Pedro Pages continues to see a slight edge for playing time behind the dish. Herrera has done enough to avoid being completely ignored with a .288/.354/.387 slash line, three home runs, five stolen bases, 23 RBI and 32 runs scored over 66 contests this season.

Arenado went 3-for-3 with a double, two walks, one RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Pirates.

This was Arenado's third multi-hit effort in his last nine games, a span in which he's hitting .323 (10-for-31) with five walks, though just two of his hits over that stretch have gone for extra bases. The third baseman has put together a strong second half to maintain a .269/.323/.396 slash line for the season while adding 16 home runs, 69 RBI, 67 runs scored, 22 doubles and two stolen bases over 145 games.

Winn went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Pirates.

Winn has gone 8-for-34 (.235) with two homers (both solo shots) and a stolen base over his last eight games. He's picked up extra rest in September after playing nearly everyday for most of the second half. The shortstop is at a .271/.318/.411 slash line with 14 homers, 11 steals, 51 RBI and 75 runs scored through 141 contests this season.

Donovan went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Pirates.

Donovan remains hot at the plate late in the season, going 11-for-31 (.355) with two homers and five RBI over his last nine games. He's up to a .271/.338/.408 slash line with 13 homers, 66 RBI, 63 runs scored, 32 doubles and five stolen bases over 143 contests. He should continue to see time both at second base and in left field depending on if Thomas Saggese is in the lineup.

McGreevy (2-0) allowed two hits and struck out four without walking a batter over three scoreless innings to earn the win Wednesday over Pirates.

The Cardinals' six-run rally in the seventh inning gave McGreevy a lead, and he didn't let the Pirates back in. He's won both of his major-league appearances this season, the other one being an excellent seven-inning start versus the Rangers on July 31. Lance Lynn's season is done due to renewed right knee inflammation, which gives McGreevy an opportunity to potentially pick up a start in the final week if the Cardinals want to stick with a six-man rotation.
