Correa is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

It appears to be a regular day off for Correa, who's hitting .282 with two home runs and 10 RBI in his last 10 games. Aledmys Diaz plays shortstop and bats sixth Sunday.

Rojas is not in the lineup Sunday against the Rays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas returned from a knee injury to start the past four games, and he'll receive a day off after going 4-for-15 with a solo homer, a double, two walks and a stolen base. Jazz Chisholm will shift to shortstop while Joe Panik starts at the keystone.

DeJong went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 8-5 win over the Cubs.

His two-run blast off Tommy Nance in the ninth inning capped the scoring on the day for the Cards. DeJong is taking full advantage of Edmundo Sosa's absence due to a wrist injury, going yard in back-to-back games including the nightcap of Friday's doubleheader, but on the year he's still slashing just .200/.288/.400 with 19 homers, four steals, 44 runs and 45 RBI through 107 contests.

Turner went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs and a strikeout in a 7-2 loss to Arizona on Saturday.

Turner provided Los Angeles' only offense Saturday with solo shots in the sixth and ninth innings to give the middle infielder 24 homers on the season. The pair of long balls tied Turner's September total prior to Saturday and a current 12-game hitting streak has helped contribute toward a scorching .333/.385/.523 line across 22 games this month.

Rojas went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Rays.

Rojas smacked his ninth homer of the season off Shane McClanahan in the third inning Saturday to give the Marlins a 1-0 lead. With eight games remaining, the infielder is now just two long balls shy of matching his career high of 11 set in 2018.

Story is not in Saturday's lineup against the Giants.

He is hitting .244 with five home runs and two steals in 20 games this month. Brendan Rodgers will start at shortstop while Ryan McMahon handles the keystone and Colton Welker starts at the hot corner.

Franco is available off the bench Saturday and should see normal usage over the rest of the season, radio broadcaster Steve Carney reports.

He only got into one rehab game on his way back from a hamstring injury, so the Rays wanted to give him a breather Saturday. Manager Kevin Cash said Franco will start Sunday, and with an off day Monday, he shouldn't need any scheduled days off next week.

Franco is not in Saturday's lineup against the Marlins, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

He returned from the injured list Friday after missing two weeks with a hamstring injury. Joey Wendle will start at shortstop and bat fifth.

DeJong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored during Friday's 12-4 win over the Cubs in the second game of the doubleheader.

DeJong was one of four Cardinals' players to hit a home run in the second game of Friday's twin bill after he took Michael Rucker deep to right in the third. The 27-year-old is slashing a lowly .185/.241/.444 with two homers, two RBI, three runs scored, a steal and 2:9 BB:K over 12 games this month as he's taken a backseat to Edmundo Sosa for the team's starting shortstop position. Sosa was banged up Friday after getting hit in the wrist by a pitch, which could afford DeJong some added playing time if Sosa is forced out with the injury.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-1 win over the Mets.

Adames went back-to-back with Christian Yelich in the third inning for his only hit of the night. It was his first home run since returning from the injured list Sept. 20 and his 23rd of the year. Milwaukee got a bargain with the 25-year-old shortstop when it traded for him in May, as he's slashing .290/.369/.524 with 23 home runs, 69 RBI, 69 runs scored, five steals and 53:148 BB:K over 524 plate appearances.
