Winker (hip) will bat second and play left field Monday against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Winker left Saturday's game against Atlanta with a bruised right hip, but he didn't seem concerned with the issue. He didn't start Sunday's game but did draw a walk off the bench. He'll be involved from the start this time around and will look to build on his excellent .325/.401/.590 season slash line.

Manager David Bell said Winker (hip) will be "100 percent" heading into Monday's game against the Phillies, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Winker was held out of the lineup Sunday after exiting Saturday's contest with a bruised right hip, though he did appear as a pinch hitter Sunday. He's 2-for-19 over his past six games and will attempt to get back on track Monday.

Winker (hip) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Winker exited Saturday's game with a right hip contusion, but he said after the game that he was "fine." The outfielder will still get at least the beginning portion of the series finale off and it's to be seen if he'll be available off the bench. The issue should still be considered minor at this point, with the Reds possibly providing further update later Sunday.

Winker isn't concerned about the bruised right hip that forced him to exit Saturday's game against Atlanta, saying, "I am fine. Just banged out my hip a little bit," Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Winker will test out his hip prior to Sunday's contest and could end up sitting for at least one game, but there doesn't appear to be any reason to fear for a long absence at this point. That's great news for the Reds, as Winker is hitting an excellent .325/.399/.590 on the year.

EDGE Analysis
It's not entirely clear how the injury occurred at this point. The Reds will likely provide an update on the outfielder following the contest, but Winkler can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Winker went 3-for-4 with three home runs, six total RBI and a walk in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Winker had one of the best offensive showings of the year, as he took the Cardinals pitching staff deep three times while also reaching base through a walk. The slugging outfielder socked a two-run shot in the top of the first, added a three-run bomb in the second -- both off John Gant -- and delivered the game-winning run with a solo shot in the ninth off reliever Alex Reyes. As a result, Winker became the first player in franchise history to record multiple three-homer games in a single season and he leads the National League in dingers with 17. The 27-year-old outfielder is now hitting .350/.412/.665 with 17 homers and 37 RBI.
