Conine is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Phillies.

With southpaw Ranger Suarez toeing the slab for the Phillies, the left-handed hitting Conine will grab a seat. David Hensley will patrol right field for the Marlins in the series opener.

Romo is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Atlanta.

Romo was in the lineup for each of the Rockies' last four contests (three at catcher, one at designated hitter), but he will begin this one on the bench. Hunter Goodman is behind the plate for the series finale.

Wynns (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Sept. 17, MLB.com reports.

Wynns suffered a right teres major tear but was recently cleared to throw to bases. He is on the 60-day injured list and not eligible to return until Sept. 27, two days before the end of the season. While it's possible he could make a late-season return, it wouldn't seem to be a given that he's added to the Reds' roster.

Tatis went 2-for-6 with a run and an RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning win against Detroit.

Tatis capped San Diego's comeback from an early five-run deficit with a walk-off single in the 10th frame. It was the first walk-off hit of Tatis' career and his first RBI since returning Sept. 2 from a lengthy stay on the injured list. He's gone 2-for-10 in his first two games back from the absence.

Candelario (toe) has yet to resume baseball activities, MLB.com reports.

Candelario is almost three weeks removed from suffering a fractured left great toe and remains limited to rehabilitation work due to lingering discomfort. It shouldn't take long for him to become game-ready once the soreness subsides, but it's not clear when/if that might happen before the end of the season.

Abbott (shoulder) began a throwing program Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

Abbott was shut down for nearly two weeks with a left shoulder strain but has been cleared to ramp things back up again. It's going to take him a while to be built back up to start a game for the Reds, but the hope is that he can make it back before the end of the season. Abbott has collected a 3.72 ERA and 114:52 K:BB over 138 innings covering 25 starts for Cincinnati in 2024.

Pederson is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest in San Francisco.

It's a tough left-hander on the hill for the Giants in this one, so the left-handed hitting Pederson will grab a seat. Switch-hitting Josh Bell will get the start at designated hitter for the Diamondbacks.

Encarnacion-Strand (wrist) has been cleared to begin baseball activities, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Encarnacion-Strand underwent surgery in mid-July to repair ligaments in his fractured right wrist. He has already been ruled out for the remainder of the regular season, but the 24-year-old will hope to have a normal offseason after getting the go-ahead to ramp things up this month.

Martini (thumb) has targeted Sept. 17 as the start of a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville, MLB.com reports.

Martini underwent left thumb surgery in early July and is getting close to being ready for game action. The 34-year-old will hope to make it back to the Reds later this month.

Gibaut (forearm) is targeting Sept. 15 as the start of a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville, MLB.com reports.

Gibaut has been out all of this season following forearm surgery and more recently a calf strain. He will need a handful of rehab outings given how much time he's missed, but a return later this month is doable if he can avoid another setback.
