Bour is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Braves, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Bour went 1-for-3 in his return from the disabled list Friday, but he'll head to the bench for Saturday's contest as the Marlins ease him back into action. J.T. Realmuto will cover first base in his stead, with A.J. Ellis stepping in behind the dish.

Bell went 3-for-4 in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Cardinals.

No other Pirate had more than one hit on the night, as Bell got little help from his teammates. The first baseman leads all NL rookies with 127 hits, and his .304/.374/.514 slash line in the second half is cementing his spot as a big part of Pittsburgh's future.

Hoskins went 2-for-4 with a homer, a walk, two runs and three RBI Friday against the Nationals.

Hoskins crushed his 10th bomb of the year to bring the Phillies within three runs in the seventh inning of a road defeat. The rookie has been an amazing story during the second half of the season, as he still boasts a .304/.418/.725 slash line while helping lead many fantasy teams to successful seasons.

Cabrera (back) will be held out of Saturday's lineup but said his injury isn't serious, Matt Ehalt of The Record reports.

The MRI Cabrera received Friday apparently didn't reveal any major structural damage. The Mets have a day off Monday before beginning a series in Chicago on Tuesday, and it would be a moderate surprise if Cabrera wasn't ready to go by following the off day.

Goldschmidt (elbow) participated in baseball activities prior to Friday's game against the Padres.

Manager Torey Lovullo said that the club wanted to give Goldschmidt an extra day to approach his full level of activity, which is why he was withheld from the lineup again Friday. The plan is for Goldschmidt to be evaluated Saturday, so information regarding his availability should be available heading into Arizona's outing versus San Diego. If Goldschmidt has to miss another game, look for Daniel Descalso to fill in at first base.

Goldschmidt (elbow) isn't in the lineup Friday against the Padres.

Goldschmidt recently expressed optimism regarding his status and said he thought he'd be ready to return for Friday's game. Although he's eager to play, the Diamondbacks are being careful with the star first baseman, as Goldschmidt is being withheld from the lineup for the fifth consecutive game. Daniel Descalso will start at first base and hit fifth in place of Goldschmidt on Friday night.

Joseph is out of the lineup Friday against the Nationals, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.

Rhys Hoskins will start at first base and hit third with Joseph sitting out Friday night. Joseph, who's hit two home runs over the last seven games, will likely return to action Saturday when the Phillies take on Edwin Jackson and the Nationals.

Cabrera (back) isn't in the lineup Friday against the Reds.

Cabrera had an MRI on Friday, but the results of the examination have yet to be revealed. Until further notice, consider Cabrera day-to-day. Matt Reynolds will start at the hot corner while Cabrera is withheld from the lineup Friday.

Bour (oblique) was activated from the DL on Friday.

Bour has been out since July 24, but is ready to return to action following his lengthy absence. Prior to getting hurt, Bour had been in the midst of a great season. Over 87 games he's hitting .289/.366/.548 with 21 home runs and 63 RBI. Now that he's back in full health, he should return to his regular spot at first base in the Marlins' lineup.

Rizzo went 2-for-2 with two walks, two runs scored and two RBI in Thursday's win over the Pirates.

Rizzo was locked in at the plate in this one as he snapped an 0-for-11 slump that stretched back the past three games. With a .280/.396/.532 slash line to go along with 31 home runs and 102 RBI, Rizzo is once again producing at an elite level this season.
