Coors Field, Denver, CO

Kris Bryant - Not starting WednesdayBryant is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazettereports.

ImpactThe 31-year-old was on the bench for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader and will sit again for Wednesday's contest. Bryant has been unable to get things going at the plate since he returned from the injured list Sept. 11, as he has a .180/.212/.360 slash line and 32.7 percent strikeout rate during that stretch.

Freddie Freeman - Belts 27th homerFreeman went 3-for-8 with a two-run home run, an additional run, a double and two walks across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader split with the Rockies.

ImpactFreeman did most of his work in the nightcap, when he padded an already substantial Dodgers lead with a two-run homer in the sixth inning. The superstar first baseman added a double in that contest, his league-leading 58th two-bagger of the campaign. He needs two more doubles to become the first MLB player since 1936 to collect 60 in a campaign. Freeman has complemented the two-bagger bonanza with 27 homers, 98 RBI, 127 runs, 22 stolen bases and a .333/.410/.564 slash line.

James Outman - Tallies four hits TuesdayOutman went 4-for-6 with a pair of runs in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Rockies.

ImpactAfter going 0-for-4 in a Game 1 loss, Outman bounced back by rapping four singles in the nightcap. It was the rookie's third four-hit game of the campaign and his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 28. Even with the Game 2 performance, Outman has struggled to a .211/.322/.421 slash line over 23 contests in September, though he's knocked five homers and a double among his 16 hits.

Noah Davis - Gets another start to close seasonDavis is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Dodgers at Coors Field.

ImpactDavis will be making a second straight turn through Colorado's rotation in what likely represents his final appearance of the season, barring him being needed in relief for Sunday's finale against the Twins on three days' rest. The right-hander struck out four over five innings this past Friday against the Cubs, but he was handed the loss after serving up three earned runs on four hits and three walks. He's not a recommended streaming option Wednesday while pitching at a hitter-friendly park against one of the majors' top offenses.

Emmet Sheehan - Making another start WednesdaySheehan is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field.

ImpactSheehan will make his second straight turn through the Los Angeles rotation after a brief stint in the bullpen. He turned in a gem his last time out this past Thursday against the Giants, striking out a career-high nine while allowing one earned run on no hits and four walks over 4.2 innings. Though he's pitched well of late, Sheehan hasn't hit five innings in any of his starts or relief appearances in the majors or minors since late July, so the Dodgers may not keep him in Wednesday's game long enough to qualify for a win.
