Gonzalez started at second base and went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Sunday's 9-5 loss to the Giants.

Per usual, manager Alex Cora got Gonzalez's bat in the lineup against a lefty. Gonzalez typically plays first base, but Cora kept the productive Abraham Toro there and used Gonzalez at second base Sunday, the first game that Boston has faced a lefty since it demoted Kristian Campbell. The move worked offensively, as Gonzalez took Robbie Ray deep for his second homer of the season, but he also had a crucial error that led to three unearned runs crossing the plate. Gonzalez owns a 1.076 OPS against southpaws in 2025.

Schanuel went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run, a double and an RBI single during Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Astros.

Schanuel notched his fifth three-hit game of the campaign, staying red-hot at the plate. The first baseman is 23-for-72 (.319) with three home runs, nine runs scored, 14 RBI and two stolen bases over his last 17 games. He's slashing .283/.372/.412 in 2025.

Solano went 3-for-5 with two home runs and five RBI in Sunday's win against the Cubs.

Solano ripped a solo shot in the fourth inning and a two-run homer in the seventh. He capped off his day with a two-run single during Seattle's five-run eighth inning. Solano posted three consecutive three-hit games during the weekend series against the Cubs, boosting his season OPS from .490 to .666 in the process. Solano did not homer in any of his first 38 games this season but has gone deep three times in the last six contests.

Singleton signed a minor-league contract with the Astros on Sunday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Singleton was released from his minor-league contract with the Mets on Monday after batting .213 with a 12 home runs, 42 RBI, 37 runs scored and one stolen base over 55 games with Triple-A Syracuse this season. The 33-year-old first baseman will begin his third stint in the Astros organization after previously seeing big-league action with Houston in 2014 and 2015 and 2023 and 2024.

Santana is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Kyle Manzardo will cover first base and David Fry will serve as the Guardians' designated hitter while Santana receives his first day off since June 7. Since clubbing a grand slam in the Guardians' 11-2 win over the Reds on June 11, Santana has gone 4-for-31 with no extra-base hits over his last eight games, though he contributed two stolen bases during that stretch.

Noda will start at designated hitter and will bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

After joining the White Sox last weekend shortly after being claimed off waivers from the Red Sox, Noda has handled a regular role for Chicago. He's started seven of the last eight games, but he's gone just 2-for-17 with a solo home run. Expect Noda's playing time to eventually trend downward if he's unable to get anything going at the dish.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles, though manager Aaron Boone said the first baseman will "probably" play in all three games of the upcoming series versus Cincinnati, which begins Monday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Sunday marks the second straight absence for Goldschmidt, and it's also the second time in the last week he's sat consecutive games, though he started the four contests in between. Boone also said that the 37-year-old will "play regularly and all the time, but there'll be those occasions where [he's off] two in a row." Ben Rice will receive another start at first base Sunday and should remain a semi-regular presence in the lineup when the Yankees face right-handed pitching.

Solano went 3-for-5 with two RBI in Saturday's 10-7 loss to the Cubs.

Solano notched his second consecutive three-hit game Saturday, continuing a scorching run in June. The veteran had struggled mightily before the month, slashing just .173/.212/.200 with two extra-base hits and two RBI over 34 games. Since the start of June, however, he's turned things around dramatically, posting a .440/.481/.600 slash line with two extra-base hits and six RBI in nine games. Though he's been deployed largely as a short-side platoon player at first base this season, Solano started against a right-hander (Cade Horton) on Saturday, and his recent success could allow him to stay in the lineup more frequently versus same-handed pitchers.

Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-1 win over the White Sox.

Guerrero extended the Blue Jays' lead to four runs in the seventh, when he took Aaron Civale deep to left-center field for a solo homer. It was Guerrero's 10th home run of the season, and the All-Star first baseman has recorded at least one RBI in six of his last nine games. Over that span, he has gone 11-for-34 (.324) with one steal, four doubles, two home runs and 10 RBI.

The Rangers placed Burger on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a strained left oblique.

Burger was removed from Friday's game with tightness in his left side, and further testing showed he suffered a strained left oblique. The Rangers recalled Justin Foscue from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move. Burger is slashing .220/.253/.403 with 10 home runs in 249 plate appearances this season.
