Berti went 2-for-2 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Friday's 16-1 loss to the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Berti came off the bench in the blowout and provided the only run of the night for the Marlins with an eighth-inning solo shot off right-hander Bryse Wilson. The 33-year-old speedster now has four home runs in 125 games (390 plate appearances) this season with Miami.

Berti remains out of the lineup Thursday versus the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Berti has started only one of the Marlins' last seven games as he firmly settles back into a bench role. The 33-year-old is at 13 stolen bases this year after swiping an MLB-best 41 bags in 2022.

Berti is not in the lineup Thursday against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Joey Wendle will get a second consecutive start at shortstop as the Marlins face another right-hander in Joan Adon. Berti has out-produced Wendle on the whole this year, but the veteran speedster carries a weak .255/.294/.319 season slash line versus righties.

Berti is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Joey Wendle was on the bench, Berti started at shortstop against right-handed pitchers in both of the past two games, going 2-for-7 with a pair of base hits. Though the lefty-hitting Wendle is back at shortstop Wednesday against right-hander Zach Eflin, the Marlins could be viewing the position as more a timeshare between Wendle and Berti moving forward rather than a platoon. Berti holds a nearly 350-point edge in OPS over Wendle since the All-Star break (.723 to .382).

Berti went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
The light-hitting utility man jumped on a Jordan Montgomery changeup in the second inning and lined it over the left-field wall for his third homer of the season. Berti's worked his way back into a consistent spot in the batting order since the All-Star break, slashing .392/.407/.569 in 17 games with three steals, six RBI and 10 runs, but as yet he hasn't really exploited MLB's new rules to make basestealing easier -- after leading the league with 41 stolen bases in 2022, the 33-year-old has only 12 in 16 attempts this season.

Berti is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Berti will head to the bench for the first time since July 21, ending a streak of nine consecutive starts in which he saw action at third base, shortstop and in left field. The Marlins moved on from Jean Segura ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline but acquired two player (Josh Bell and Jake Burger) who are expected to start on a regular basis, so Berti could end up finding himself on the bench more frequently. Berti's ability to play all over the infield and outfield should at least keep him in the mix for a handful of starts per week as other players get days off or miss time due to injury.

Berti will start in left field and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Phillies, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Marlins manager Skip Schumaker will continue to lean on the sizzling Berti, who will pick up his eighth straight start and his 10th in 11 games even though Miami has all its key position players available again with Jazz Chisholm and Avisail Garcia returning from the IL. Berti, who is slashing .472/.500/.611 with four extra-base knocks and three stolen bases since the All-Star break, is starting to gain traction in left field, where he's made three of his last four starts. While he continues to weld a hot bat, Berti looks as though he'll play ahead of Garcia and Avisail Garcia as the Marlins' third outfielder after Chisholm and Bryan De La Cruz.

Berti will start at third base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Rays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Berti will make his fourth consecutive start and his sixth in seven contests overall. He'll be filling in for a resting Jean Segura on Wednesday, but Berti doesn't have a clear path to a regular role at any one position at the moment. In addition to third base, Berti has also made two starts apiece at shortstop and left field over the past week.

Berti went 1-for-3 with a double in Sunday's extra-inning win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Getting the start at shortstop and batting sixth, Berti extended his current hitting streak to six games, a stretch in which he's gone 10-for-17 (.588) with two stolen bases and four runs scored. The 33-year-old has slipped back into a super-utility role with the Marlins mostly healthy -- over the last five games, he's started twice at shortstop and once each at third base and in left field -- and he seems to be more comfortable with that assignment. On the season, Berti's slashing .292/.335/.372 in 271 plate appearances with two homers, 11 steals, 18 RBI and 35 runs.

Berti is not in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Berti will take a seat after he went 3-for-7 with a double, an RBI and a run scored over the first two games of the series. Garrett Hampson will draw the start at the hot corner and bat ninth in the finale with Toronto.
