Kris Bryant - Scratched with back sorenessBryant was scratched from the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates due to back soreness, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.
ImpactAlthough Bryant was removed from Monday's lineup less than an hour before the start of the game, he'll be available off the bench if needed and should be considered day-to-day for now, though it's still a bit concerning since he just returned from an IL stint with a back issue. Sam Hilliard will draw the start in left field and bat eighth.

Yonathan Daza - Sits MondayDaza is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates.
ImpactDaza will take a seat for the second time in three games and looks as though he'll move into more of a fourth-outfield role following Kris Bryant's return from the injured list over the weekend. After the 28-year-old saw a 12-game hitting streak come to an end in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader with the Mets when he appeared as a late-inning defensive replacement but didn't log a plate appearance, Daza went 0-for-3 with a walk in a starting role during Sunday's 2-0 loss in the series finale.
