The Marlins activated Myers (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

Myers will return to the big-league roster after missing just over two weeks due to a right oblique strain. The outfielder recently wrapped up a three-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville, going1-for-8 with three walks, two strikeouts and two runs scored. In a corresponding move, outfielder Victor Mesa was optioned to Triple-A on Monday.

The Marlins activated Norby (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

Norby will rejoin the Marlins after missing the minimum 10 days while recovering from a left quad strain. The 25-year-old was activated after completing a three-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville, during which he went 2-for-10 with two RBI, a run scored and four strikeouts. Norby is expected to settle back in as Miami's primary third baseman for the final two weeks of the season.

The Marlins optioned Winkler to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Winkler appeared in three games since his promotion Sept. 5, going 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles. He'll head back to the minors to make room for the returns of Connor Norby (quadriceps), Graham Pauley (oblique) and Dane Myers (oblique) from the injured list and Tyler Phillips (personal) from the paternity list.

The Marlins reinstated Phillips (personal) from the paternity list Monday.

Phillips will return to action after missing two games over the weekend while welcoming a new addition to his family. Miami optioned reliever Christian Roa to Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

The Marlins optioned Acosta to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Acosta was part of the slew of moves Monday by Miami, as the club activated Connor Norby (quadriceps), Graham Pauley (oblique) and Dane Myers (oblique) from the injured list and needed to clear room on the active roster. Acosta hit .233 with one double, two RBI, one stolen base and four runs scored in 10 games during his latest stint in the big leagues.

The Marlins optioned Roa to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Roa will return to Triple-A following a two-day stint in the big leagues with Miami activating Tyler Phillips (personal) from the paternity list. The 26-year-old right-hander made his lone appearance during his latest stay with Miami during Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Tigers, tossing a scoreless inning out of the bullpen.

Sosa (groin) is not in the starting lineup Monday versus the Dodgers, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Sosa will remain on the bench for a third contest in a row while dealing with right groin tightness. Bryson Stott will draw another start at shortstop while Weston Wilson handles second base against Los Angeles.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Monday that Saalfrank is dealing with left shoulder fatigue, Diamondbacks on SI reports.

Lovullo intimated that he knew Saalfrank wasn't 100 percent when he used him during Friday's game in Minnesota, but the skipper felt it was an emergency situation and Saalfrank "gave us what he could." Saalfrank allowed one walk in one-third of an inning and was charged with a blown save in the appearance. Lovullo also indicated that Saakfrank would undergo imaging just to make sure he's not dealing with anything beyond fatigue. Consider the lefty reliever day-to-day at this point. Saalfrank has picked up three saves as part of the Diamondbacks' closer by committee. Kyle Backhus, Jake Woodford and Taylor Rashi have each registered one save for Arizona this month.

Hayes will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's contest in St. Louis.

Hayes had been scheduled for a day off, but he's been added to the lineup after Spencer Steer (neck) was scratched. Sal Stewart will move from third base to first base to cover for Steer, while Hayes will occupy the hot corner.

The Giants designated Wisely for assignment Monday.

The move makes room on the Giants' 40-man roster for Bryce Eldridge, who will make his major-league debut against the Diamondbacks on Monday. Wisely has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .253/.332/.387 with 12 steals, 17 doubles, seven home runs and 42 RBI in 342 plate appearances.
