  • Graham Pauley 3B | MIA

    Marlins' Graham Pauley: Back at full strength

    The Marlins reinstated Pauley (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Pauley had been on the shelf since Aug. 18 due to a right oblique strain, but he's been deemed ready to rejoin the big club after he went 3-for-10 with a home run and a double over a three-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville. He's made 48 starts at third base so far this season, but with the Marlins also bringing back Connor Norby (quadriceps) from the IL on Monday, Pauley may have to settle for limited at-bats over the final two weeks of the campaign.

  • Dane Myers CF | CIN

    Marlins' Dane Myers: Returns from IL

    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.

  • Connor Norby 2B | COL

    Marlins' Connor Norby: Returns from 10-day IL

    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.

  • Jack Winkler SS | HOU

    Marlins' Jack Winkler: Returned to minors

    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.

  • Tyler Phillips SP | MIA

    Marlins' Tyler Phillips: Returns from 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.

  • Maximo Acosta SS | MIA

    Marlins' Maximo Acosta: Demoted to Triple-A

    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.

  • Christian Roa RP | CHC

    Marlins' Christian Roa: Sent down Monday

    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.

  • Edmundo Sosa LF | PHI

    Phillies' Edmundo Sosa: Remains on bench

    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' Andrew Saalfrank: Nursing shoulder fatigue

    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.

  • Sam Haggerty LF | TEX

    Rangers' Sam Haggerty: Rehab on pause

    Haggerty (ankle) will be shut down from his rehab assignment until Wednesday after experiencing a setback, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Haggerty experienced some pain in his left ankle, so the club has elected to slow his rehab assignment. He'll presumably be back in the mix Wednesday and could return from the 10-day injured list later in the week if he's able to log a few solid appearances in the minors.
