Goodman isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

Goodman will move to the bench for the second time in three games despite going 2-for-3 with a pair of extra-base hits and a walk during Monday's series opener. Brett Sullivan will take over at catcher and bat eighth.

Keith (thumb) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Keith was scratched from the lineup Monday due to left thumb soreness and is sitting Tuesday for a second consecutive game. It's unclear how long he's been dealing with the injury, but Keith has a .136/.240/.227 slash line and 30 percent strikeout rate over his past 18 games.

The Rockies recalled Fulford from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

After being optioned back to Albuquerque on Aug. 25, Fulford went 10-for-49 with three home runs and three stolen bases across 13 games. In a corresponding move Tuesday, the Rockies optioned Vimael Machin to Triple-A.

The Phillies recalled Holman from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

Holman was sent down to Triple-A on Sunday, but he'll reverse course and rejoin Philadelphia's bullpen as Jesus Luzardo (shoulder) moves to the injured list. Holman gave up five unearned runs while recording one out during his season debut Saturday and will likely be reserved for low-leverage situations.

Ford (hand/wrist) is starting behind the plate and batting seventh Tuesday against the Phillies.

The 23-year-old is making his first start since Friday, when he departed early due to pain in his left hand/wrist. Ford now appears to be fully recovered and will look to bust out of a 1-for-13 slump.

Tawa is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Marlins, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Tawa went 0-for-3 while he walked and came around to score in the series opener against the Marlins on Monday. He'll rest Tuesday as Pavin Smith starts at first base and bats eighth.

Manager Joe Espada said Tuesday that Correa (ankle) will not return this season, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Correa was thought to be on the verge of defying the odds and returning from an ankle procedure he underwent in May, but the Astros will instead opt to keep him on the sidelines for the rest of the year. The 31-year-old hasn't suffered a setback in his recovery, but the workload he took on while rehabbing his ankle became too much for him to handle. He'll now have an entire offseason to build up at a more gradual pace, and he should have a good chance to be ready for the start of the 2027 campaign.

Abrams is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

Abrams started Washington's first 11 games of September but will take a seat Tuesday after posting a .655 OPS during that stretch. Nasim Nunez is manning shortstop and batting ninth for the Nationals versus Philadelphia lefty Cristopher Sanchez.

Taillon (elbow) revealed his "season is over" Tuesday and confirmed he'll be evaluated by Dr. Keith Meister in Texas on Sept. 22, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Taillon is hopeful that an injection or two along with an offseason to rest and rehab will get his right elbow back to health. It was thought at one point the right-hander could return before the regular season concluded as the Blue Jays make a push for the final wild-card spot in the American League, but that possibility has now been officially ruled out.

Wood is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

After spending a month on the IL due to an oblique injury, Wood returned on Sept. 2 and started the past 10 contests. He's gone 11-for-37 (.297 average) with three doubles, four steals, two RBI and two runs since being activated, but he has seen his home-run drought extend to 18 games. Andres Chaparro is batting second as the designated hitter Tuesday for Washington.
