Soler (hip) isn't in the Marlins' lineup Saturday against Washington, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Soler has now missed four starts due to right hip tightness, and a trip to the injured list could be a possibility if his condition doesn't improve soon. His absence Saturday will move Josh Bell into the DH spot and Luis Arraez to first base while Xavier Edwards starts at second.

Martinez (groin) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday and is expected to return to the major-league Dodgers on Sept. 8 against Washington, MLB.com reports.

Martinez has been on the injured list since Aug. 22 but appears to be making progress toward a return. The veteran slugger is slated to play in a simulated game Saturday ahead of kicking off a rehab stint Sunday. If all goes well, Martinez will return to the big club for the first game of next weekend's three-game set in Washington, and he will likely resume duties as Los Angeles' regular DH.

Martini started in left field and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 3-2 win over the Cubs in the second game of Friday's doubleheader. He went 0-for-1 as a pinch hitter in the matinee.

Martini, who had an early impact after the Reds selected his contract in August, has slipped since, going 3-for-16 over the last six games. Jake Fraley's return from the injured list should limit Martini's plate appearances over the final month of the season.

Ozuna went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 6-3 win over the Dodgers.

Ozuna ended August with seven homers over his last 10 games, and he kept that prodigious power streak going right into September. Across his last 11 games, he's batting .488 (20-for-41) with 12 extra-base hits. Prior to the surge, Ozuna was batting .249 and slugging .477 -- those marks are now at .272 and .543, respectively. He's up to 32 homers, 76 RBI, 71 runs scored and 20 doubles through 118 contests.

McCutchen isn't in the Pirates' lineup Friday against St. Louis.

McCutchen will get a breather Friday after going just 1-for-20 across his last six games. Endy Rodriguez will fill in as Pittsburgh's designated hitter, allowing Jason Delay to start behind the plate.

Soler (hip) isn't in the Marlins' lineup Friday against Washington.

Soler will now miss his third straight start after being pulled from Tuesday's game with right hip tightness. Manager Skip Schumaker said Soler was potentially available off the bench Thursday, so there's a chance he could make a pinch hit appearance Friday. Jake Burger will serve as Miami's DH while Soler sits, allowing Garrett Hampson to start at third base.

Marlins manager Skip Schumaker said Soler (hip) could be available off the bench Thursday at Washington, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Soler is out of the lineup for a third straight day because of lingering right hip tightness, but he's apparently starting to feel a little better and seems like a good bet to return in full Friday. The 31-year-old has hammered 35 home runs in 125 games this season with Miami.

Soler was scratched from the lineup Thursday at Washington due to lingering right hip tightness, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Soler had been slated to return as the Marlins' designated hitter after missing two games, but now the 31-year-old slugger is out for a third straight contest. Jake Burger will instead fill the DH role as Josh Bell covers first base and Garrett Hampson enters the lineup at third base.

Soler (hip) is back in the lineup Thursday against the Nationals.

Soler will serve as the Marlins' designated hitter and bat second versus the Nats and right-hander Joan Adon after missing two games due to hip tightness. The 31-year-old slugger boasts an .843 OPS with 35 homers and 71 RBI in 125 games this season for Miami.

Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Rockies.

Ozuna's two-out sixth-inning blast off Kyle Freeland was his 31st home run of the season and his seventh in the past nine games. Though he's part of a star-studded Atlanta lineup, Ozuna's contributions shouldn't be overlooked. He's produced a .301/.371/.641 slash line with 14 home runs, 35 RBI and 32 runs since the All-Star break, paying handsome dividends for those who invested a late-round pick into him on draft day.
