Rotowire
Soler (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list and is batting second as Miami's designated hitter Sunday against Atlanta, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Soler landed on the shelf Sept. 6 with an oblique strain -- after he missed the previous five games with a hip issue -- but he'll rejoin the active roster following a quick stay on the IL. The veteran slugger is hitting just .231 in 25 games since the start of August, though he's still showcased his power during that stretch with 10 homers.

Marlins' Jorge Soler: Lands on IL with oblique strain
Rotowire
Soler was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right oblique strain, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

It's another tough blow for the NL Wild Card-hunting Marlins, who also placed staff ace Sandy Alcantara on the injured list Wednesday because of a flexor strain. Soler leaves behind an .842 OPS with 35 homers and 71 RBI through 126 games on the year.

Rotowire
Soler is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Dodgers, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Soler returned to action Tuesday following a five-game absence with a hip injury. He didn't suffer any known setback, so this would appear to be the Marlins simply easing him back into things.

Marlins' Jorge Soler: Absent from lineup again
Rotowire
Soler (hip) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Soler will miss his fifth straight game on account of right hip tightness, an injury he first picked up in Tuesday's contest versus the Rays. Since Soler hasn't appeared off the bench in any of the previous four games, the Marlins could backdate a potential stint on the injured list, if one is deemed necessary. Miami may wait and see how Soler is feeling following Monday's off day before making a decision on whether he'll go on the IL prior to Tuesday's series opener with the Dodgers.

Marlins' Jorge Soler: Homers Marlins to victory
Rotowire
Soler went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a double in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Nationals.
Soler's two-run blast in the third was enough to propel the Marlins to a narrow victory over the Nationals. He's now up to 35 home runs this year and is tied with Mookie Betts for fifth-most in baseball. Soler's power continues to be the staple of his game, as he lacks a high batting average and doesn't steal bases. He's got home runs in back-to-back games and 10 total in August and is now slashing .241/.328/.516 with 71 RBI, 70 runs and a 56:129 BB:K in 525 plate appearances overall.
