Voit (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

It was reported last week that Voit would be rehabbing with Double-A Somerset, but he'll instead head to Triple-A for the minor-league opener. He's been taking live at-bats at the alternate site, so while it's unclear exactly how long Voit's rehab assignment will be, he could rejoin the Yankees in the near future if he avoids any setbacks.

Diaz went 3-for-4 with an RBI single and a walk in a win over the Angels on Monday.

Teammates Willy Adames and Manuel Margot provided the biggest blasts of the night, but Diaz was productive with some "small ball" contributions. The 29-year-old's seventh multi-hit effort of the season snapped a brief 1-for-10 funk that had encompassed his prior four games.

Lowe went 2-for-5 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Twins.

Lowe's not known for his speed, but he's now stolen bases in back-to-back games and is up to four thefts in 2021. He had one steal in the majors prior to this season and four across four minor-league seasons.

Naylor went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, a home run and three RBI in Monday's 8-6 win over the Royals.

His two-run blast off Jakob Junis in the seventh inning proved to be the key hit in the game, giving Cleveland an 8-3 lead. It was Naylor's first homer of the year, but the 23-year-old seems to be finding his rhythm at the plate, going 8-for-22 over the last six games with four doubles in addition to Monday's long ball.

Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 5-4 loss to Oakland.

Guerrero knocked a double and came around to score in the eighth to pull Toronto within a run of the Athletics. He raised his season slash line to .356/.496/.644 with 12 extra-base hits through 115 plate appearances. It was his fourth straight game scoring a run.

Torkelson is set to play "a lot of third base" according to his manager at High-A West Michigan, Patrick Nothaft of MLive.com reports.

Torkelson primarily played first base during his college career at Arizona State, but the Tigers got him some time at third during spring training, and now it looks like that's the plan for him in the minors. The 2020 No. 1 overall pick will largely be judged by his bat during his professional career, but he'll of course need to hold his own defensively as well. If Torkelson shows some ability at both corner infield spots, it could ultimately help him advance to the majors sooner, though he's still most likely to debut in 2022.

Kirilloff went 1-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Sunday's 13-4 win over the Royals.

Kirilloff's three-run blast off reliever Jake Newberry in the eighth inning put the finishing touches on the series win for the Twins. The home run was the four of the weekend for Kirilloff, who had gone 3-for-26 with one extra-base hit (a double) over his first eight games of the season. Though the rookie's power binge is a welcome sight for fantasy managers, it's worth noting that he had no other hits in his 12 at-bats this weekend beyond the home runs, and he posted a 1:6 BB:K in the series. He's now sporting a .184 average, .200 on-base percentage, 2.6 percent walk rate and 30 percent strikeout rate on the season.

Vaughn went 2-for-4 in Sunday's 5-0 loss to Cleveland.

Vaughn, who had half of the White Sox's hits, returned to the lineup after getting a breather Saturday and continued a resurgence at the plate that began a couple of weeks ago. Sunday's two-hit effort was his third multi-hit game among the last six, and the rookie is batting .379 (11-for-29) over the last nine contests. He has been sharing left field with others, but the rookie could find his name in the starting lineup with more regularity following an injury to Luis Robert (hip). Robert is expected to hit the injured list, which means Leury Garcia and Billy Hamilton may be needed for center field.

Olson went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in Sunday's win over the Orioles.

Olson made a surprising return to the lineup after missing three games earlier this week due to an eye contusion, but he saw the ball well Sunday and recorded his fifth multi-hit game over his last eight contests. The 27-year-old is hitting .352 (12-for-34) with three homers and seven RBI during that eight-game stretch.

Santana went 3-for-4 in Sunday's loss against the Twins.

Santana continues to be one of the Royals' most consistent hitters and has extended his hitting streak to seven games, posting three multi-hit appearances in that span. He has also reached base safely at least twice five times during that seven-game period.
