Senzel is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Senzel had a double in Saturday's game, his first hit since coming off the injured list Monday (1-for-10). It's probably best to view Brian Goodwin as the Reds' primary center fielder, at least until Senzel is closer to full speed following his month-long absence.

Moncada is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Yolmer Sanchez will take over at third base and bat ninth against right-hander Michael Lorenzen. Moncada had a triple in Saturday's game, ending a five-game hitless slide. The 25-year-old has a .192/.306/.269 line in the month of September; it seems he's still not feeling back to full strength after his bout with COVID-19 earlier this year.

Hayes went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI during the Cardinals' 5-4 win over the Pirates on Saturday.

Hayes has reached base in 15 of 17 contests since being called up while slashing a strong .310/.385/.603. The 23-year-old should remain a fixture toward the top of the Pirates' lineup as the regular season winds down.

Donaldson went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a victory over the Cubs on Saturday.

Donaldson wasn't in the starting lineup, but he came on as a pinch hitter with the bases loaded in the seventh inning. Though he hit into a fielder's choice in that at-bat, the slugger had a more successful result when he slammed a solo homer to right field in the ninth frame. Donaldson's is slashing .225/.356/.507 with six homers and 11 RBI on the season.

Ramirez went 1-for-4 with two RBI in a 5-2 loss to the Tigers on Saturday.

Ramirez hit a two-run double off Spencer Turnbull in the third inning and ended up being responsible for the entirety of Cleveland's offensive production. Regardless of the lack of help, Ramirez is a blistering 13-for-30 over his past seven games.

McMahon is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

McMahon has sat frequently against southpaws recently, and he'll do so again here against one of the best in the league in Clayton Kershaw. Garrett Hampson will star at second base Saturday.

Paredes was added to Saturday's lineup against Cleveland.

Paredes was initially slated to get a day off, but he'll enter the lineup after Miguel Cabrera was scratched with an illness unrelated to COVID-19. Harold Castro will serve as the designated hitter with Paredes taking over at third base.

Segura (triceps) is back in the lineup as expected Saturday against Toronto, batting third and playing third base.

Segura was struck by a pitch in the triceps Thursday against the Mets and didn't appear in Friday's contest, though the injury was never expected to keep him out too long. He's gone 6-for-6 in his last two games and will look to stay hot in this one.

Donaldson isn't starting Saturday against the Cubs.

Donaldson started the last 11 games, logging a .341 OBP with three home runs and five RBI during that time. He'll get a breather Saturday as Ehire Adrianza takes over at third base.

Paredes isn't starting Saturday against Cleveland.

Paredes has a five-game hitting streak, but he'll get a breather for Saturday's contest. Harold Castro will start at third base in his absence.
