Miguel Amaya - Sitting out MondayAmaya is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Philadelphia.
Dansby Swanson - Getting rare day offSwanson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.
ImpactSwanson looks to be receiving some routine maintenance after he had been in the lineup for every game dating back to June 14, a stretch of 87 consecutive starts. Unless he's used off the bench, Swanson will put a five-game hitting streak on hold before likely returning to the starting nine Tuesday. Luis Vazquez will fill in for Swanson at shortstop on Monday.

Ian Happ - Out again with back tightnessHapp (back) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game in Philadelphia.
ImpactHapp had to be scratched from Sunday's lineup versus the Nationals because of lower-back tightness and will miss a second straight start Monday. He is considered day-to-day. Mike Tauchman will play left field and bat leadoff in Happ's stead.
