Sosa (groin) is now expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

The initial expectation was that Sosa would be activated the first day he's eligible Tuesday. However, the Phillies have elected to have him take some swings against minor-league pitchers Tuesday and, assuming that goes well, will reinstate him Wednesday. He's been out since mid-September with a right groin strain.

Wisely will start at second base and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

Wisely was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett earlier in the day, and he will receive the first opportunity to fill in at second base for the injured Ozzie Albies (hand). The 26-year-old Wisely sports a career .217/.263/.324 slash line over parts of three big-league seasons.

Atlanta recalled Wisely from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

Wisely was claimed off waivers from the Giants last week. He's absorbing the roster spot vacated by Ozzie Albies (hand) and could see some starts at second base in Albies' place down the stretch. Wisely is a career .217/.263/.324 hitter over parts of three big-league seasons.

Atlanta placed Albies on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a fractured left hamate.

Albies suffered the injury on a swing during Monday's game against the Nationals. Typically, surgery is required with this type of injury, but it should not affect Albies' availability for spring training. Albies will finish the season with a .240/.306/.365 batting line, 16 home runs and 14 stolen bases over 157 contests. Despite the disappointing season, Albies' $7 million club option for 2026 with undoubtedly be exercised. Atlanta could mix and match at second base in the final days of the season, with Vidal Brujan, Luke Williams and Brett Wisely among those in the mix for starts.

Donovan (groin) is expected to return to the lineup for Tuesday's game in San Francisco, MLB.com reports.

Donovan was a late scratch from Monday's lineup due to left groin tightness, which is the same injury he returned from earlier this month. Though it appears he's still not 100 percent, the Cardinals anticipate his absence lasting just one day. Donovan is 9-for-28 with one home run in six games since coming back from the injured list.

Iglesias went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Monday's 5-4 win over the Brewers.

Iglesias cut the Padres' deficit to one with a solo homer off Freddy Peralta in the fifth inning of a game San Diego went on to win in extras, clinching a postseason berth. The veteran infielder has struggled overall with a .582 OPS in 109 games, but he's been swinging the bat well lately, slashing .308/.438/.538 over his past seven contests. Iglesias has seen increased playing time with Xander Bogaerts (foot) sidelined, though that role is likely to shrink once Bogaerts returns ahead of the playoffs.

Albies was removed from Monday's game against the Nationals due to a hamate bone fracture in his left hand.

Albies appeared to suffer the injury on a follow-through of his swing during an at-bat in the third inning. This issue will shut him down for the final week of the regular season, and with Atlanta already eliminated from postseason contention, he can shift his focus on getting healthy for the start of spring training.

Albies (arm) left Monday's contest against the Nationals in the third inning, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

Albies was in the middle of an at-bat in the bottom of the third inning when the medical staff came out, ultimately exiting the game after having his left arm/wrist examined. It's unclear what exactly the 28-year-old is dealing with, and more information on his status will likely come in the near future. In the meantime, Nick Allen replaced him at second base versus Washington.

Donovan is no longer in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Giants due to general stiffness and soreness, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Donovan was initially listed as the leadoff hitter and starting second baseman for Monday's series opener, but he's been removed a few hours before first pitch. He can be considered day-to-day until further notice. Jose Fermin will bat eighth and start at second base in Donovan's stead.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Atlanta, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

The left-handed-hitting Garcia will hit the bench for the third game in a row, with the Nationals having faced two lefties and one righty during that stretch. Paul DeJong will get the nod at second base Monday in Garcia's stead.
