Heyward went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 11-4 loss to the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran outfielder continues to swing a hot bat, collecting his fifth multi-hit performance in his last 12 games. Over that stretch, Heyward's slashing .405/.421/.676 with three of his 14 homers on the season. He continues to sit against southpaws, but the 34-year-old is a must-start for fantasy purposes when a righty is on the mound for the opposition as long as his hot streak lasts.

Heyward isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Saturday against Boston, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With James Paxton set to start on the mound for the Red Sox, Heyward will retreat to the dugout to begin Saturday's contest. Mookie Betts will shift to right field while Amed Rosario mans second base in Heyward's absence.

Heyward is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Though the Dodgers are facing a right-hander (Xzavion Curry) in the series finale, the lefty-hitting Heyward will take a seat Wednesday. Heyward recently overcame a hip issue, so manager Dave Roberts may just be exercising some caution by keeping the veteran out of the lineup a day after he went 0-for-2 while playing six innings in right field. Mookie Betts will get a day out of the infield and spell Heyward in right field Wednesday.

Heyward (hip) is back in the lineup Tuesday at Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Heyward will start in right field and bat sixth against former teammate Noah Syndergaard after sitting out of Saturday's doubleheader versus the Marlins because of a minor hip issue. The veteran outfielder has posted an .803 OPS in 272 plate appearances against righties this year.

Heyward (hip) won't play in either of Saturday's games against Miami, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Heyward experienced an issue with his hip during Friday's game and had to be removed early. His injury likely won't keep him out long-term, but the Dodgers will have him sit out both games of Saturday's doubleheader in order to give Heyward extra time to recover.

Heyward is considered day-to-day with a hip issue which forced him to exit Friday's game against the Marlins early, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Heyward suffered the injury while making a sliding catch and left after grabbing a hit in his lone at-bat. The Dodgers haven't indicated that the issue is particularly serious, but with lefty Braxton Garrett on the hill for the Marlins on Saturday, Heyward is probably due to sit even if fully healthy.

Heyward isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Friday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Kyle Freeland will be the third left-handed starter the Dodgers have faced during their series against the Rockies, so Heyward will take a seat for the third time in four games. Mookie Betts will continue to replace Heyward in right field, and Amed Rosario will fill the opening at second base.
