What happened: Liam Hicks has been scratched ahead of Game 2 with low back tightness, forcing a late lineup change. Max Meyer, still undefeated on the season, is set to take the mound for the start.

Why it matters: Losing Hicks on short notice thins the lineup and forces a reshuffle just before first pitch. Handing the ball to the same Max Meyer who has yet to take a loss gives Miami a steadying arm as it tries to keep its recent run going.

What to watch: Watch for the revised lineup and whether Hicks needs further evaluation or an injured-list move if the back tightness lingers.
