Rojas went 4-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in the Marlins' 10-2 victory over the Braves on Saturday.

Despite a small rotator cuff tear in his shoulder, Rojas continues to make the most of his chances as the Marlins' everyday shortstop. He now has a .354/.420/.532 slash line in the month of September, giving him a strong case to be the primary shortstop next season even when J.T. Riddle (shoulder) is back in the fold.

Anderson is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Indians.

Anderson will receive a standard day off following 21 straight starts, while slashing .322/.337/.444 during that span. In his place, Tyler Saladino will pick up a start at shortstop.

Owings (finger) is taking part in baseball activities during the Diamondbacks' fall instructional league, but doesn't appear close to returning to game action, the Associated Press reports.

The Diamondbacks had ruled out the infielder for a return before the end of the regular season, and his continued rehab makes it unlikely that he'll play in either the Oct. 4 wild-card game or a potential divisional series that would follow. Owings' absence will lock Ketel Marte, Daniel Descalso and Brandon Drury in as the team's primary middle infielders heading into the postseason.

DeJong went 3-for-4 with a home run and two runs scored in Friday's loss to the Brewers.

The home run was DeJong's team-leading 25th of the season. A fourth-round pick in 2015, he broke into the majors in late May to little fanfare and ended up being one of the biggest surprises of the baseball season. DeJong's strikeout and walk rates are suspect, however; he'll be a tough player to rank and project in 2018.

Camargo is not in the lineup against the Marlins on Friday.

Camargo will spend a third straight game out of the starting nine as Rio Ruiz gets the nod at third base for Friday's affair. Over the club's last 10 games, Camargo is hitting .217/.250/.261 with three RBI in 23 at-bats.

Crawford is not in the lineup against the Mets on Friday.

Crawford will retreat to the bench following a pair of starts as Maikel Franco handles the hot corner for Friday's series opener. Over his last nine games, Crawford is just 2-for-24 from the plate, but he has more walks (11) than strikeouts (10) over that span.

Baez is not in the lineup against Cincinnati on Friday.

Now that the Cubs have secured the division title and a place in the playoffs, Baez will continue to receive a little rest while recovering from a bruised knee. The second baseman was held out of Tuesday's lineup and then again Thursday after the club claimed a spot in the NLDS, and will now spend a second straight day on the bench while Tommy La Stella picks up a start at the keystone.

Correa went 4-for-4 with a double, a home run, a walk, three runs scored and three RBI in Thursday's 12-2 win over Boston.

Correa has produced consecutive four-hit efforts while combining for three home runs and two doubles in those two games. It looks like the thumb injury Correa suffered earlier this season is fully behind him, which is great news both for the talented infielder with the playoffs approaching and for fantasy owners benefiting from his heroics down the stretch.

Turner is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports.

Turner is hitting a healthy .292/.364/.538 with nine stolen bases and four homers in 106 at-bats since returning from the disabled list, but he'll get the day off after starting 27 of the last 28 games. It will likely be his last breather of the season. In his place, Wilmer Difo will start at shortstop and lead off.

Camargo is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

While he's hit an impressive .315/.339/.444 in 54 at-bats this month, Camargo will open on the bench for a second straight contest. In his place, Adonis Garcia will take over at the hot corner, batting sixth. The rookie has shown enough in his first big-league campaign to compete for the starting third baseman job in 2018, assuming the Braves don't look outside the organization for an upgrade.
