Encarnacion is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Encarnacion appeared to have settled into an everyday role after making five consecutive starts, but he'll find himself on the bench Wednesday for the second day in a row. Both of Encarnacion's absences have come against right-handed pitchers, so he may have moved back into the short side of a platoon in the corner outfield or designated hitter with the lefty-hitting Michael Conforto.

Martinez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Nationals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

In the midst of a six-game hitless stretch, Martinez will grab a seat for the series finale. Starling Marte will occupy the designated-hitter spot for the Mets while Tyrone Taylor plays right field.

Pederson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

Pederson will hit the bench for the series finale while the Rockies send southpaw Austin Gomber to the hill. Randal Grichuk (lower body) will replace Pederson in the lineup as Arizona's designated hitter.

Ohtani went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 11-9 loss to the Marlins.

Ohtani got Los Angeles on the board in the third inning with a two-run blast off Darren McCaughan, cutting the Marlins' lead to 4-2. Ohtani is up to 48 long balls on the season, leaving him two home runs and two stolen bases shy of becoming the first player in major-league history to post a 50-50 season. Ohtani is now slashing .287/.372/.611 on the campaign with 110 RBI and 119 runs scored across 675 plate appearances.

Chaparro isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Chaparro will get a day off Tuesday after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout during Monday's series opener. His absence will allow Juan Yepez to work as the Nationals' designated hitter and bat cleanup.

Encarnacion is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Baltimore.

Encarnacion has seen his playing time pick up lately with five straight starts but he will begin Tuesday's series opener against the Orioles on the bench. Michael Conforto will serve as the Giants' designated hitter.

McCutchen is absent from the lineup for Monday's game in St. Louis, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

McCutchen started the previous three and six of the last seven contests, but he will begin Monday's series opener on the bench. Joey Bart will get a start at designated hitter in McCutchen's stead.

Encarnacion will start in right field and bat cleanup Sunday against the Padres.

Encarnacion will pick up a fifth consecutive start and appears to be gaining traction in the Giants' everyday lineup while moving between designated hitter and the corner outfield. He appears to be poaching playing time from Michael Conforto, who has hit the bench for four of those five games, including three matchups with right-handed pitchers. Encarnacion has produced a .752 OPS with four home runs and one stolen base across 90 plate appearances since receiving a promotion from Triple-A Sacramento in early August.

Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

The lefty-hitting Pederson will take a seat for the series finale while the Brewers send southpaw DL Hall to the bump. Josh Bell will get the starting nod at designated hitter in Pederson's stead.

Chaparro isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Saturday's game against Miami.

Chaparro has gone 0-for-8 with three strikeouts through the first two games of Washington's series against the Marlins, and he'll now get a chance to regroup Saturday. Juan Yepez will fill in as the Nats' designated hitter and bat third.
