Senzel has been diagnosed with a torn labrum in his left shoulder and will be shut down for the rest of the season, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Senzel hadn't seen the field in over a week, and the Reds finally announced the extent of the injury Thursday evening. It's unclear at this time whether he'll require surgery, but his 2019 campaign has come to an end. He slashed .256/.315/.427 with 12 home runs, 42 RBI and 14 stolen bases over in 104 games.

Senzel (shoulder) is not in Thursday's lineup against the Mariners.

He has been out of the lineup for over a week, and while he appeared off the bench last week, he hasn't done so since Sept. 7. Brian O'Grady is starting in center field and hitting seventh.

Machado is not in Thursday's lineup against the Cubs.

He has started the last 19 games and is hitting .209 with three home runs, one steal and a 14:10 K:BB in 67 at-bats over that stretch. Ty France will start at third base and hit sixth.

Newman is not in Thursday's lineup against the Giants.

Newman has hit safely in 15 of his last 16 games and is slashing .413/.486/.651 with three home runs and four steals over that stretch. Cole Tucker starts at shortstop and will hit sixth.

Moustakas went 3-for-4 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Moustakas returned to the starting nine after missing most of the last couple weeks with the wrist injury and blasted two homers, including a two-run shot in the ninth inning to break a 5-5 tie. The veteran infielder will play a pivotal role down the stretch for the Brewers, especially with Christian Yelich (kneecap) going down for the season Tuesday.

Longoria is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Pirates.

He is hitting .189 with one home run in 10 games this month. Corban Joseph will start at the hot corner and hit eighth.

Muncy (wrist) will be activated prior to Friday's game against the Mets, Alanna Rizzo of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

This had been the hope, and now we have confirmation that Muncy is expected to be ready to return this weekend. He is already flying to New York to meet the team there for the three-game series. In the meantime, Matt Beaty and David Freese are platooning at first base.

Senzel (shoulder) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Mariners.

The last time Senzel was in the starting lineup was Sept. 3, although he has appeared off the bench in several games since then. Phillip Ervin will start in center field against southpaw Marco Gonzales.

Moustakas (wrist) is starting at third base and hitting third Wednesday against the Marlins.

The Brewers offense got bad news Tuesday when it was revealed Christian Yelich (broken kneecap) would miss the rest of the season. However, Moustakas should inject some life into the lineup, while Keston Hiura (hamstring) was also activated Wednesday.

Moustakas (wrist) walked in a pinch-hit at-bat in Tuesday's victory over the Marlins.

The at-bat was Moustakas' first since Sept. 2, and just his sixth since he left the Brewers' Aug. 26 game against the Cardinals after taking a grounder off his left wrist while playing third base. It was reported Tuesday that Moustakas could return to the lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Marlins, and his at-bat Tuesday seemingly increases those chances as long as it did not lead to any additional soreness.
