Alex Call - Riding pine MondayCall isn't starting Monday's game against Atlanta.
Nelson Cruz - Remains out MondayCruz (eye) is on the bench Monday versus Atlanta.
ImpactLuke Voit is the designated hitter while Cruz continues to recover from inflammation near his left eye. It's worth wondering why Cruz, missing his 11th straight game, hasn't gone on the injured list, though teams are under less pressure to make those moves this late in the season due to expanded rosters. He should still be considered day-to-day leading into Tuesday's contest.

Tommy Nance - Beginning rehab assignmentNance (groin) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
ImpactNance is eligible to return from the injured list late this week, and the start of his rehab assignment signals that he'll likely be in the mix to rejoin the Marlins' bullpen prior to the end of the regular season. Since the right-hander usually has short appearances out of the bullpen, it seems likely that he'll be cleared to return following a brief rehab stint.

Avisaíl García - Rehab assignment begins MondayGarcia (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
ImpactGarcia has been on the injured list for just over two weeks, but his rehab assignment signals that he'll likely have a chance to rejoin the Marlins late in the regular season. It's possible that the 31-year-old will be reinstated from the injured list following just one or two rehab games, which would put him on track to return around the middle of this week.

Lewin Díaz - Clobbers fifth homerDiaz went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-1 loss to the Nationals.
ImpactDiaz put the Marlins on the board in the bottom of the eighth inning, when he sent a 375-foot blast to right field to lead off the frame. The home run was the second in four days for Diaz, but he hasn't done much since his July 26 call-up from Triple-A Jacksonville to generate much excitement for fantasy purposes. The lefty-hitting first baseman doesn't typically start against lefties, and since he's slashed .167/.225/.304 in 151 plate appearances in the majors this season, he's often been relegated to the bottom of the order against right-handed starting pitchers.

Joey Meneses - Showcases power again SundayMeneses went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Marlins.
ImpactThe 30-year-old rookie put the Nationals on the board in the top of the first inning with the two-run drive to center field. The home run was his second in as many days and his 12th since being called up from Triple-A Syracuse in early August. With a .943 OPS through his first 200 big-league plate appearances, Meneses has likely secured a full-time role for the Nationals entering the 2023 season.
