3B Martin Prado will be back in the lineup Saturday after getting a night off Friday against Milwaukee. Manager Don Mattingly said it was just a day of rest for Prado, who appeared as a pinch-hither after starting six straight games since returning from the disabled list June 23.

3B Martin Prado, in just his second game from the disabled list, drilled a two-run double in the first inning. He finished 1-for-4 with a strikeout and is batting .278 this season.

3B Martin Prado, who had been on the disabled list since May 7 because of his second hamstring injury of the year, was activated Friday and went 0-for-3. Prado hit in the sixth hole because RF Giancarlo Stanton has found his niche is the second spot in the order.

3B Martin Prado (hamstring) could return as soon as Tuesday when the New York Mets visit. Prado hasn't played since May 7. He has been able to compete in just 17 games this season, missing time at the start of the year with the original hamstring injury. Prado, 33, played in 153 games last year and hasn't played less than 128 since 2008. Assuming he returns on Tuesday, which is the most optimistic view, the Marlins would only have 88 games left on their schedule. That means that the most that Prado could play this year would be 105 games.

3B Martin Prado (hamstring) was sent on a rehab assignment to Class A Jupiter. He went 2-for-4 Monday with one strikeout for Jupiter. He is expected to return to the majors after a few more minor-league rehab games.

3B Martin Prado, on the 10-day disabled list since May 8 because of a right hamstring strain, began a minor league rehab assignment with Double-A Jacksonville on Friday, going 1-for-2 with a double in five innings. He also started the season on the DL with a similar injury from the World Baseball Classic and has played just 17 games for the Marlins, batting .290 with two homers and six RBIs.

3B Martin Prado (right hamstring) was sent on a rehab assignment to Triple-A Jupiter. Prado is hitting .290 in 17 games this year.

3B Martin Prado (right hamstring) is set to start a rehab assignment Thursday. Prado, 33, is signed through 2019. He is likely to get his starting job back upon his return as his replacement, Derek Dietrich, has not distinguished himself in Prado's absence. Prado is hitting .290 in 17 games this year. But his on-base percentage is .315, and he has an OPS of .721.

3B Martin Prado (hamstring) is about two weeks from returning from the disabled list. His OPS is .721, well below his career average of .765. The Marlins are just 4-12 with Prado in the lineup this year, and he has batted second in each of those games. Prado, 33, is signed through the 2019 season but could be in demand as trade bait before the deadline in July. He is known as a solid defender and a good guy in the clubhouse.

3B Martin Prado (hamstring) is expected to miss at least six weeks. It's a big loss for the Marlins to play without Prado, who is hitting .290 and has a .721 OPS. Prado is a solid defensive player who ordinarily bats in the two-hole.

3B Martin Prado was placed on the 10-day disabled list and recalled fellow infielder J.T. Riddle from Triple-A New Orleans. Prado was diagnosed with a strained right hamstring after aggravating the injury during the seventh inning of Miami's 7-0 rout of the New York Mets on Sunday. The 33-year-old initially sustained the injury while playing for his native Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic. Prado is batting .290 with two homers and six RBIs in 17 games in 2017 since signing a three-year, $40 million contract in the offseason.

3B Martin Prado (right hamstring) is likely bound for the disabled list for a second time this season after he was injured Sunday while running the bases in the seventh inning of the Marlins' 7-0 win over the Mets. Prado didn't start the game but entered in the second inning when IF Miguel Rojas, who started at third base, left with a jammed right thumb. After going hitless in his first two at-bats, Prado singled in the seventh but hurt his hamstring while running to third base on a double by IF Derek Dietrich. Prado walked very slowly off the field and could barely walk down the dugout steps, though he looked to be moving a little bit better in the clubhouse afterward. He will undergo an MRI after the Marlins get back to Miami, but Prado said this injury felt worse than the hamstring injury he suffered in the World Baseball Classic that cost him the first 12 games of the regular season. Manager Don Mattingly said he expected the injury to require a disabled list stint. Prado is batting .290 with two homers and six RBIs in 17 games this season.

3B Martin Prado continued to thrive at Citi Field on Friday when he went 3-for-5 with a fourth-inning RBI single and two runs in the Marlins' 8-7 loss to the Mets. Since 2013, Prado is hitting .357 (35-for-98) in 27 games at Citi Field. It is the highest average for any visiting player with a minimum of 90 at-bats. Overall this season, Prado is batting .306 with two homers and six RBIs in 15 games.

DH Martin Prado went 1-for-5 and struck out twice on a night in which Miami hitters went just 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position. Prado nearly hit into a triple play, barely beating the throw to first after the Marlins had two on and no outs in the third.

3B Martin Prado extended his hit streak to six games and got Saturday's only extra-base hit, a double, off Pirates pitcher Ivan Nova. However, Prado, who started the season on the disabled list because of a hamstring injury, doesn't appear to be 100 percent healthy. On a double down the third-base line by Pittsburgh's Gregory Polanco, Prado didn't get much bend on his legs as the ball skipped past him into left field.

3B Martin Prado is batting .320 in 41 games against the Phillies since the start of the 2014 season. His 17 career home runs and 74 career RBIs against Philadelphia are his most against any opponent.

3B Martin Prado tied Saturday night's game with his first home run of the season in the sixth inning. He then kept the Padres from winning in the bottom of the 10th with outstanding stops on back-to-back plays. "Martin doesn't get the credit he deserves for his defense; he's one of the more underrated third basemen in the game," said Marlins manager Don Mattingly. Prado is hitting .441 (15-for-34) over his last nine games against the Padres.

3B Martin Prado, who pulled a hamstring while running out a ground ball last month in the World Baseball Classic, could make his 2017 Marlins debut on Sunday. He is scheduled to play his fourth minor-league rehab game on Saturday. Once he returns, he should fit in the two-hole offensively while also providing steady defense. His return would also strengthen the bench, where Derek Dietrich and Miguel Rojas are the two key infield reserves.

3B Martin Prado (right hamstring strain) could be ready to rejoin the Marlins by the start of their next road trip. Marlins manager Don Mattingly said Sunday that Prado continues to improve and will likely head out soon on a rehab assignment with Single-A Jupiter. Mattingly said it wasn't impossible for Prado to return at the end of the Marlins' first homestand, which begins Tuesday and runs through next Sunday, but that it was more likely he'd rejoin the team on a six-game road trip to Seattle and San Diego from Apr. 17-23. Prado was injured while playing for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic on March 15. He hit a career-high .305 last season with eight homers and 75 RBIs.

3B Martin Prado (right hamstring strain) could be getting close to embarking on a rehab assignment. Manager Don Mattingly said Friday that Prado, who was injured while playing for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic on March 15, is progressing well and that he'll be examined by team doctors once the team returns home for its season-opening homestand that begins Tuesday. If that exam goes well, Mattingly indicated Prado could be cleared to begin a rehab stint. Prado hit a career-high .305 last season with eight homers and 75 RBIs.
