    • Has ankle injury
      Steer is dealing with a sore ankle, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Steer was held out of the starting lineup Sunday as a result of the ankle but served as a pinch hitter. He walked for Will Benson with the bases loaded in the seventh inning and was removed for a pinch runner. Cincinnati manager David Bell said Steer should be back to 100 percent for Tuesday's series opener at home against the Padres. Rotowire.com Today, 5:11 am

    • Taking seat Sunday
      Steer is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Steer is mired in an 0-for-16 slump and will head to the bench Sunday. Will Benson will shift to left field for the series finale in Los Angeles while Stuart Fairchild and Jake Fraley start in center and right, respectively. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:46 am

    • Spencer Steer out of lineup Sunday vs. Dodgers
      Spencer Steer is not in the lineup for Sunday’s tilt against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Steer has struggled mightily as of late, and the 26-year-old will get a day to think about things against Landon Knack and the Dodgers. Santiago Espinal is starting at third base with Jeimer Candelario moving across the diamond to first. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:29 am

    • García Jr. (heel) back Sunday as designated hitter
      Luis García Jr. (heel) is hitting cleanup as the designated hitter for the Nationals on Sunday against the Phillies.

      Advice: García Jr. is back on the field after suffering a right heel injury against the White Sox. The 24-year-old should be able to return to the field in the coming days, but for now it’s nice to see him back in the lineup after missing consecutive contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:56 am
       
    • Back in lineup as DH
      Garcia (heel) will serve as the designated hitter and bat cleanup in Sunday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: After being held out of the lineup for the first two games of the series with a right heel injury, Garcia has gained clearance to return Sunday, albeit only as the DH. It's uncertain when he may return to the field, but the fact that Garcia is still active suggests the team is not concerned about the injury becoming worse with play.

    • Spencer Steer goes 0-for-3 in loss to Dodgers
      Spencer Steer went 0-for-3 with a strikeout on Saturday in the Reds’ shutout loss at the hands of the Dodgers.

      Advice: It’s probably too early to panic, but Steer is batting just .165 (18-for-109) with one homer and eight steals over his last 30 games. The 26-year-old’s plate skills remain solid and his underlying Statcast batted ball metrics point to some regression on the way. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:48 am

    • Remains out Saturday
      Garcia (heel) isn't in the Nationals' lineup Saturday against the Phillies.

      Advice: Garcia was a late scratch from Friday's lineup due to a heel injury, and he will take another day to recover Saturday. Ildemaro Vargas will fill in at the keystone and bat second. Rotowire.com Saturday, 12:32 pm
       
    • Luis García Jr. (heel) out Saturday vs. Phillies
      Luis García Jr. (heel) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Phillies.

      Advice: No surprise here to see Garcia getting some time off to rest and recover for the second straight contest after suffering a right heel injury earlier this week against the White Sox. It’ll be veteran Ildemaro Vargas handling the keystone in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Saturday, 11:33 am
       
    • Scratched due to heel injury
      Garcia was scratched from Friday's lineup in Philadelphia due to a right heel injury, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: Garcia also didn't start Wednesday's game versus the White Sox after his heel got caught by a cleat earlier in the series. The infielder expects to return Saturday. Ildemaro Vargas will man the keystone in Garcia's place. Rotowire.com Friday, 1:27 pm
