Jung is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Jung started the first 13 games of September and will receive Sunday off after he began the month with three homers and an .881 OPS. Ezequiel Duran will shift to the hot corner while Carson Kelly receives a start at designated hitter.

Bregman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Bregman will receive a day off after a run of seven straight starts, during which he went 6-for-30 with two homers, six RBI and five runs. Mauricio Dubon will receive a look at the hot corner while batting ninth.

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

Vargas will take a seat for the second day in a row and for the third time in five contests. Bryan Ramos appears to have supplanted Vargas as Chicago's preferred option at third base, though both players could see their opportunities dry up if Yoan Moncada (adductor) is able to return from the injured list later in the week.

Solano went 4-for-5 with three doubles and a run in Saturday's 8-0 win against the Giants.

Solano batted out of the No. 8 hole and gave the Padres plenty of run-scoring opportunities with his trio of two-baggers, though he was knocked in just once. The veteran infielder has started at first base in three of San Diego's past four contests and appears set to see plenty of playing time at that position with Jake Cronenworth playing second base and Xander Bogaerts shifting to shortstop while Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) continues to miss time. Solano has earned the uptick in opportunities by slashing .312/.361/.468 over 32 games since the All-Star break.

Miranda is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds,

On the bench for the third time in four games against a right-hander, Miranda looks as though he'll have to settle for more of a part-time role after the Twins recently welcomed Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa back from the injured list. Miranda should still have a regular spot in the lineup against left-handed pitching.

The Phillies reinstated Bohm (hand) from the 10-day injured list. He'll start at third base and bat fifth Sunday against the Mets.

Bohm injured his left hand in late August and was placed on the 10-day IL on Sept. 3. He made one rehab appearance on Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, when he went 2-for-4 with one double. The Phillies evidently saw enough from Bohm on Saturday to bring him back with the big club, and he'll immediately reclaim his spot in the infield rather than being eased back in as the designated hitter.

Jung is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Jung has a .619 OPS through his first 24 big-league games and is hitting .227 over 22 at-bats in September, and he will head to the bench Sunday as southpaw Cade Povich takes the mound for Baltimore. Andy Ibanez will receive a start at third base and bat leadoff in the series finale.

The Orioles designated Maton for assignment Sunday.

He'll give up his spot on the roster to outfielder/designated hitter Heston Kjerstad (concussion), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. After being called up from Triple-A Norfolk on Sept. 2, Maton saw action in five games for the Orioles and went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts.

Marte went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 11-1 win over Minnesota.

Marte, whose ground-rule double plated two during the Reds' nine-run fourth inning, entered the contest with just one RBI over the previous 13 games. Not much has gone right for him since returning from an 80-game suspension, and recently he's lost playing time to Santiago Espinal. Marte's played just seven of 13 games thus far in September.

Candelario (toe) is unlikely to return and finish the season, MLB.com reports.

Candelario, who was hit by a pitch during a game Aug. 18, landed on the injured list a couple of days later and has yet to resume baseball activities. Cincinnati manager David Bell said Saturday that it looks like Candelario will not be back this season, adding there is still pain in the toe. If that's it for Candelario, he'll finish his first season as a member of the Reds with 20 home runs, 56 RBI, four steals, 47 runs scored and a line of .225/.279/.429 over 112 games.
