Rosario went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Red Sox.

Rosario managed to tie the game 3-3 in the seventh inning on a single to center, but the Red Sox would answer with a run of their own in the eighth and hang on to win the contest. The 22-year-old has gone 10-for-36 with five extra-base hits and five RBI over his previous 10 ballgames. Rosario will look to close out the season on a high note after slashing .259/.298/.395 through 141 games in his first full season of big-league action.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 10-4 loss to the Astros.

The 24-year-old now has a career-high 11 homers after coming into 2018 with only eight in 249 big-league games. Saturday's blast ended a 34-game power drought for Marte, making it tough to expect much more from him in that category over the final weeks of the season.

McNeil went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's loss to the Red Sox.

McNeil singled and stole second base -- his fifth steal of the season -- in the fourth inning before Brandon Nimmo brought him and Todd Frazier home with a three-run homer. The rookie is now hitting an impressive .373/.396/.549 with one home run, seven RBI and two stolen bases over 14 games this month.

Frazier is not in the lineup versus Milwaukee on Friday.

Frazier will receive a little breather following three straight starts as Pablo Reyes gets the nod in left field versus lefty Gio Gonzalez. Look for Frazier to return to the starting nine Saturday with right-hander Zach Davies set to pitch for the Brewers.

Rosario is out of the lineup for Game 1 of Thursday's twin bill versus the Marlins.

Rosario is set for a standard day off after starting the first two games of this series as Jack Reinheimer gets the nod at shortstop in his absence. During Wednesday's victory, Rosario went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run.

McNeil is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader against Miami.

McNeil will take a seat for the matinee after going 3-for-5 with a triple and two RBI during Wednesday's victory. Wilmer Flores is set to make a start at second base in his place. Look for McNeil to return to the starting lineup in Game 2.

Rosario went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run to help the Mets to a 13-0 victory over the Marlins on Wednesday.

Rosario hasn't provided much power this season: This was just his eighth long ball in 482 at-bats, and his .386 slugging percentage isn't an eye-popping number. However, he's maintained a degree of fantasy value thanks to his ability to rack up extra-base hits with 24 doubles and eight triples, as well as his prowess on the basepaths, where he's swiped 18 bags despite getting caught 10 times.

Marte went 2-for-4 with four RBI and a strikeout in Tuesday's win over the Rockies.

Marte came up with a big hit in the third inning, breaking a 2-2 tie with a two-run triple to right field before adding a couple of insurance runs with a two-out, two-run single in the eighth. It was a much-needed breakout performance at the plate for Marte, who was informed by manager Torey Lovullo recently that Daniel Descalso would act as team's primary starter at the keystone down the stretch. Marte, who is slashing .250/.345/.333 with six RBI since the start of September, might have given Lovullo reason to reconsider the demotion.

Urias, who left Tuesday's game against the Mariners with a pulled left hamstring, is likely done for the season, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Manager Andy Green sounded fairly certain after the game that Urias' season is over, per Acee. The talented middle infielder pulled up in the eighth inning on the way to first base while trying to beat out a grounder and was helped off the field. He tweaked a hamstring in April and while that injury only cost him three games, this was apparently a pretty severe strain. Urias finishes the season with two home runs, one steal, a .208/.264/.354 slash line and 10:3 K:BB in 53 MLB plate appearances after posting a 127 wRC+ as the youngest qualified hitter in the Pacific Coast League. He won't turn 22 until next June and figures to compete for an everyday role with the big club in spring training.

Urias was helped off the field in the eighth inning of Tuesday's game against the Mariners with an undisclosed left leg injury, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

He took an awkward step down the first base line in an effort to beat out a grounder and pulled up grabbing the back of his left leg. The fact he needed to be helped off the field obviously isn't a good sign. He was 1-for-4 with a strikeout before exiting.
