Wagaman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

The Marlins are leaving Wagaman out of the lineup for the fourth straight matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher (Cade Cavalli). The right-handed-hitting Wagaman should remain a fixture in the starting nine versus lefties, as he's produced a .761 OPS in 163 plate appearances against them this season.

Doyle is not in the Rockies' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Monday.

Doyle will begin Monday's series opener on the bench, with Yanquiel Fernandez serving as the designated hitter and Jordan Beck, Mickey Moniak and Tyler Freeman starting in the outfield from left to right. Doyle has logged at least one hit in six of his last seven games, going 8-for-27 (.296) with one steal and four RBI over that span.

Acosta will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Nationals.

Acosta will be included in the lineup for the fourth straight game and will occupy third base for the second consecutive contest after being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday. With Connor Norby (quadriceps) recently joining Graham Pauley (oblique) on the shelf, Acosta looks like he'll get the chance to serve as the Marlins' primary third baseman until the team reclaims some health. Through his first 37 big-league plate appearances, Acosta is slashing .206/.270/.500 with three home runs, one double and four RBI.

The Mets have shut down Megill (elbow) from throwing after the 30-year-old right-hander experienced tightness in his right arm, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Megill was knocked around for five runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three batters across two innings during Sunday's rehab start with Triple-A Syracuse. Laura Albanese of Newsday notes that Megill experienced tightness when throwing his secondary pitches and will undergo an MRI, but this latest setback puts a potential return this season in jeopardy.

Fedde gathered a hold while giving up a double and retiring the other two batters he faced during a relief appearance in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Pirates.

Fedde made his second appearance as a member of the Brewers, this time working out of the bullpen after he had previously made a 4.1-inning start versus the Diamondbacks in his team debut Aug. 27. Since he tossed just 10 pitches Saturday, Fedde could be in consideration to make a spot start in Texas on Tuesday, when the Brewers will have a temporary opening in the rotation. However, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel notes that Chad Patrick has joined the Brewers in Texas, so he could be formally recalled from Triple-A Nashville to draw the start over Fedde on Tuesday.

Cabrera (elbow) resumed a throwing program Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Cabrera looked to be in danger of missing the rest of the season after he was placed on the injured list Sept. 1 due to a right elbow sprain, but his ability to resume throwing a week later leaves the door open for him to pitch again in 2025. Because he hasn't been shelved for a prolonged period, Cabrera should have sufficient time to get stretched back out for a starting role, provided he experiences no hiccups during the buildup process. Prior to being shut down last week, Cabrera had submitted a 3.50 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 52:14 K:BB In 46.1 innings over his eight starts since the All-Star break.

House is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.

After starting in each of the last four games while going 3-for-12 with one home run, one stolen base, four RBI and two runs, House will take a seat as the Nationals open up a four-game set in Miami. Paul DeJong will cover third base in House's stead.

The Marlins activated Junk (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Junk will start Monday's game against the Nationals after missing a couple weeks with right ulnar nerve irritation in his pitching elbow. The right-hander threw 61 pitches in his lone rehab outing with Triple-A Jacksonville last Tuesday, so he will likely be facing a bit of a limited workload Monday.

The Marlins optioned Roa to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Roa was with the big club for just a couple days, tossing two scoreless innings in his lone appearance. He's clearing out to make room on the active roster for Janson Junk (elbow), who is back from the 15-day injured list to start Monday's game versus the Nationals.

The Mets recalled Senger from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

He'll serve as the backup catcher behind Francisco Alvarez after Luis Torrens (forearm) was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Senger has slashed just .174/.216/.188 in 30 games at the big-league level in 2025.
