Dealing with back issue Manager Don Mattingly said prior to Saturday's game against the Rays that Aguilar was held out of the lineup due to a bout with back stiffness, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Impact The injury will keep Aguilar on the bench for the second straight game, but Mattingly suggested the 30-year-old is being viewed as day-to-day at this stage rather than a candidate for the 10-day injured list. Lewin Diaz picked up the start at first base in Aguilar's stead.

Not in Friday's lineup Aguilar is out of the lineup Friday against the Rays.

Impact The 30-year-old went 1-for-7 with one RBI in the past two games and will take a seat Friday against lefty Ryan Yarbrough. Garrett Cooper was activated from the injured list Friday, and he figures to join the mix at first base and designated hitter with Lewin Diaz and Aguilar.

Sitting in Game 1 Aguilar is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Impact Aguilar has reverted back to his 2018 form so far this season, hitting .289/.323/.511 with five home runs and a very impressive 17.2 percent strikeout rate through 90 at-bats. Lewin Diaz will start at first base while Matt Joyce gets the nod at designated hitter in the matinee.

Powers Marlins to victory Aguilar went 3-for-5 with a double, three RBI, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 11-8 victory over Washington.

Impact Aguilar picked up an RBI the easy way in the third by drawing a walk with the bases loaded, and he plated two in the fourth on a double to center. The 30-year-old first baseman has a hit in five of his last six contests, collecting three extra-base hits and four RBI over that stretch

Drives in three more runs Aguilar went 1-for-4 with three RBI as the Marlins took care of business with an 8-2 victory over the Braves on Friday.

Impact Despite having just one hit on the day, Aguilar was able to make the most of his at-bats, resulting in his third multi-RBI performance over his last four games. He drove home Jon Berti on a sacrifice fly in sixth and then plated two more the following inning on an infield hit to the shortstop. The 30-year-old is slashing .393/.406/.571 over his last 28 at-bats and is clearly seeing the ball a lot better as he is striking out only 10.7% of the time this season, a huge improvement from years past.

Impact Aguilar came through with a pair of two-RBI singles, playing a big role in the team's 14-run offensive effort.

Blasts third homer Aguilar went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Orioles.

Impact Remarkably given the circumstances of the 2020 season, and the Marlins' schedule in particular, Aguilar is now the third player in franchise history to homer three times in the club's first four games. Despite the power display, the 30-year-old is only hitting .250 (4-for-16) to begin the year, but he'll continue to fill a prominent role in the heart of the Miami order.

Team's schedule on hold Aguilar and the rest of the Marlins won't play for at least a week due to the team's COVID-19 outbreak, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

Impact The rest of the Marlins' games this week have been postponed after roughly half of the team's active roster tested positive for the virus. It's not clear whether or not Aguilar is part of that group, but the earliest he'll be taking the field is next Tuesday against the Phillies.

Powers Miami with two-run homer Aguilar went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in the Marlins' 5-2 win over the Phillies on Opening Day.

Impact Aaron Nola and Sandy Alcantara were tied 1-1 in the sixth inning before Aguilar created some separation with his first long ball as a Marlin. Back in March, there was talk that Aguilar would likely hit cleanup for the team, but he hit second in the opener between Jonathan Villar and Corey Dickerson.
