Bohm (illness) will start at first base and will bat third Sunday against the Blue Jays.

Bohm was sidelined for Saturday's 3-1 win, but he's apparently feeling well enough to give it a go in the series finale. The rookie has been Philadelphia's most productive hitter in September, slashing .359/.400/.551 with three home runs and 14 RBI in 21 games.

Solano is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Solano will take a seat after starting in each of the previous four contests, during which he went 4-for-17 with an RBI. Wilmer Flores spells him at the keystone in the series finale.

Gurriel (hand) is starting at first base and batting fifth Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

The veteran first baseman was absent from Saturday's starting nine due to a hand issue, but he's back in action after missing one game. Gurriel has struggled through 17 games in September with a .167/.175/.250 slash line and one home run in 60 at-bats.

France went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Padres.

A pair of ex-Padres helped lead Seattle to the victory column Saturday, as trade-deadline pickups France and Luis Torrens (two hits, two RBI) combined for half of the Mariners' hit total. Since being acquired from San Diego on Aug. 30, France has thrived as an everyday player for Seattle, slashing .309/.377/.491 over 15 games with his new team.

Guerrero (dizziness) is starting at first base and batting sixth Sunday against the Phillies.

The 21-year-old was withheld from Saturday's starting nine since he was feeling "a little dizzy" after a pitch grazed his helmet and face Friday, but he's good to go for Sunday's series finale. Guerrero has a .203/.282/.328 slash line with two homers through 19 games in September.

Naylor is not in the lineup Sunday against the Tigers.

Naylor has received the bulk of the playing time in left field since being acquired by the Indians ahead of the trade deadline, but he finds himself on the bench for the second time in the past three games with southpaw Matthew Boyd pitching for Detroit. Oscar Mercado enters the lineup in left for Cleveland.

Dalbec returned to the starting lineup Saturday and went 1-for-3 in an 8-0 loss to the Yankees.

Dalbec, who is in Sunday's starting lineup, was given a break Friday after striking out four times Thursday. Fantasy owners will need to tolerate a high strikeout percentage in Dalbec's offensive profile in order to reap the benefits of his power.

Smith went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-2 win over Atlanta.

With the Mets clinging to a 3-2 lead, Smith led off the bottom of the eighth inning with a blast off Shane Greene, spurring a four-run rally that put the game out of reach. The 25-year-old slugger is putting the wraps on a breakout campaign, slashing .329/.392/.632 through 44 games with nine homers and 41 RBI, and his consistent production has been one of the reasons the Mets are still in the wild-card picture.

Abreu went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Reds.

The veteran first baseman has been on a tear, slashing .484/.529/1.000 over his last eight games with five homers and 12 RBI. The surge has given Abreu the league lead in RBI at 52 to go along with 18 home runs, and his .330/.374/.646 slash line has him on pace for a career-best 1.020 OPS.

Voit went 2-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored Saturday against the Red Sox.

Voit failed to go yard but extended his hitting streak to five games and continued to produce at the plate. Saturday marked his third multi-hit effort in his last five starts, during which he's hit four home runs, driven in 11, and scored six runs. Overall, Voit has maintained a strong .286/.345/.643 line with 20 home runs, 48 RBI and 38 runs scored across 200 plate appearances.
