Utley has been suspended for Games 3 and 4 of the NLDS as a result of his illegal slide in Saturday's game.
EDGE Analysis
Many took issue with Utley's slide -- which ended up in a broken leg for the Mets' Ruben Tejada -- and MLB agreed, handing him a two-game suspension. Utley will be able to play again later this postseason if the Dodgers win at least one of the next two games, however.

Utley is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rockies, Eric Stephen of True Blue LA reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thanks to a slew of injuries across the roster, Utley has been able to see close to a full-time role for the Dodgers even after Howie Kendrick's return from the DL, but he'll take a seat Sunday. Utley went 2-for-7 with two walks and two runs scored in the first two games of the series in Colorado.

Utley went 2-for-4 with a leadoff home run and RBI double in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Utley busted out of a slump in an emphatic way, as the veteran entered Wednesday's game on a 4-for-37 skid. The 36-year-old has received regular days off since his trade to the Dodgers, but still shows occasional signs of life offensively.

Utley will start at third base Monday against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
The recent injury to Justin Turner (knee) will open up things for Utley at third base, although Turner is only expected to miss a couple of days so Utley's value at third won't be lasting much longer than through Monday. Utley is in a slump lately and most recently went 0-for-4 against the Pirates on Sunday.

Utley could see some time at third base with Justin Turner dealing with a sore knee, the Dodgers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Alternatively, Jimmy Rollins could reclaim shortstop with rookie Corey Seager sliding over to third base. Either way, Utley is in a 1-for-20 skid, and with Howie Kendrick back, Utley is likely to be a part-time player.

Utley is not in the lineup Friday against the Diamondbacks, Zach Buchanan of the Arizona Republic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Utley has started the past three games and collected four hits in that span, but he's also struck out seven times in those starts. He'll take a seat Friday in favor of Jose Peraza, who will man second base and bat second.

Utley won't start Sunday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Utley continues to see most of the playing time at second base, but the veteran will get the day game off Sunday. Justin Turner will move over from third base to man second in his place, while Corey Seager will handle the hot corner.

Utley went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and an RBI in a 10-7 loss to the Dodgers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Utley is showing some signs of life as of late as he has five hits in his last three games, including two doubles and a homer in that span. It's been a nightmare season for the former All-Star and with the September call-ups, he could lose some playing time down the stretch to all the talented youngsters the Dodgers have.

Utley went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 2-1 win over the Giants on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Utley is having one of his worst seasons of his career, but this was a good sign going forward. With only 22 extra-base hits it's hard to imagine the power stroke coming along and Utley will need to improve that .215 average if he wants to keep any fantasy relevancy that he may have.
