Civale (7-8) earned the win against the Phillies on Monday, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over five innings.

Civale opened with four scoreless frames before surrendering a solo home run to Brandon Marsh in the fifth. The 29-year-old has gone 5-0 over his past seven outings while completing at least five innings in six of them. He owns a 3.68 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 58:21 K:BB across 63.2 innings with the Brewers and lines up to face the Diamondbacks this weekend.

Nicolas was removed from Monday's game against the Cardinals after facing one batter due to a left side injury, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

The severity of the right-hander's injury is unclear at this time, though skipper Derek Shelton noted after the game that Nicolas is being sent for further evaluation. He'll be labeled day-to-day until more information surfaces.

Doyle went 2-for-4 with a pair of stolen bases and a run scored in Monday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Doyle singled and stole a base in the first inning, then did the same in the ninth inning before scoring the game-winning run. Doyle recorded his first multi-hit game since Aug. 29. The 26-year-old had been in the midst of a slump, slashing .177/.185/.196 over his last 14 games. It was Doyle's fourth game of multiple steals this season, and he's now one away from a 20-30 season.

Suarez (12-7) took the loss against the Brewers on Monday, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks with five strikeouts over five innings.

Suarez battled but was mostly inefficient, needing 104 pitches to get through five frames. The southpaw has walked multiple batters in three straight starts and has failed to complete six innings in each of his five outings since returning from the injured list Aug. 24. On the season, he owns a 3.13 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 139:36 K:BB across 143.2 innings and lines up to face the Mets on the road this weekend.

Pallante (7-8) got the win Monday against the Pirates, allowing four hits and one walk while striking out nine over seven scoreless innings.

Pallante was stellar on Monday as he shut down the Pirates over seven innings -- his second career start of seven or more shutout innings. Pallante also recorded a career-high nine strikeouts in the process. The 25-year-old has been a serviceable option for the Cardinals since being inserted into the rotation May 29. He's pitched to a 3.62 ERA in 99.1 innings as a starter this season.

Marsh went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Brewers.

Marsh got the Phillies on the board with a solo homer off Aaron Civale in the fifth inning and later added a double in the ninth. The outfielder has hit safely in 10 of 13 September contests with five extra-base hits and seven runs scored. On the season, he is hitting .255 with 16 home runs, 56 RBI, 53 runs and 16 steals across 442 plate appearances.

Amaya went 3-for-4 with a triple, a run scored and two RBI in Monday's 9-2 win over the Athletics.

Amaya batted ninth and did his part to contribute to Chicago's 18-hit barrage. The catcher recorded just his second triple of the season and snapped an 0-for-7 slump that extended over his last five appearances. Amaya has struggled to find a ton of offensive consistency this year, though his playing time alone gives him a decent amount of fantasy value at a thin position.

Skenes (10-3) took the loss Monday against the Cardinals, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings.

The Pirates failed to give Skenes any run support Monday, which spoiled an otherwise strong start by the rookie. Skenes continues to impress, as he now has 15 quality starts in his first 21 appearances. The 22-year-old has been fantastic as of late, allowing just four earned runs in his previous five starts combined. Skenes' ERA sits at a minuscule 2.07 with a 0.98 WHIP and 158 strikeouts through 126 innings.

Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Monday's 9-2 win over the Athletics.

Crow-Armstrong extended his hitting streak to three games, and over his last 20 contests, the youngster is batting .319 with three home runs, 15 RBI and 18 runs scored. Crow-Armstrong is proving to be a dynamic offensive player with plenty of fantasy utility in his first full MLB season.

Perkins went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and two stolen bases in Monday's 6-2 win over the Phillies.

Perkins was especially pesky in the seventh inning, swiping two bags and scoring to extend the Brewers' lead to 6-2. He has gone just 5-for-43 in 12 September contests but has still managed four thefts. On the season, the 28-year-old is hitting .247 with six home runs, 41 RBI, 50 runs scored and 22 steals across 404 plate appearances.
