Escobar left Saturday's game against the Phillies with a side injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The specific nature and severity of Escobar's injury are not yet clear. He'd already seen a significant drop in playing time, as he slipped into a spot on the short side of a platoon with Luis Guillorme at third base at the start of August, so his short-term outlook won't change much if he's shut down for a few days.
