Horwitz went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored Monday against the Tigers.

Horwitz has bounced around the lineup since early July, but he's led off in five of the Pirates' last eight games against right-handed pitching. After a solid June, Horwitz has struggled to a .184 average in July, recording only three RBI and three runs scored across 14 games.

Contreras went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, two total runs and two total RBI in a 6-2 victory versus the Rockies on Monday.

Contreras put the Cardinals on the board with a big 443-foot solo homer in the fourth inning and gave the team its first lead with a run-scoring single in the fifth. The catcher-turned-first-baseman also stroked a double to finish with his third three-hit performance of the season. Contreras has gone 5-for-15 with three extra-base hits through the first four games of the second half.

Eldridge (hamstring) has gone 1-for-9 with a walk and two RBI in three games for Triple-A Sacramento since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

Eldridge had been on the IL since June 24 due to a hamstring injury, but he was cleared to return to the Sacramento coming out of the All-Star break after he played in a pair of rehab games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League laat week. Since receiving a promotion from Double-A Richmond in early June, Eldridge is slashing .214/.269/.386 with three home runs in 19 games at the Triple-A level.

Blanco (leg) went 1-for-3 with an RBI on Saturday after being reinstated from Single-A Bradenton's 60-day injured list.

Blanco made his debut in full-season ball after a spring leg injury had kept him on the shelf all season. The 20-year-old first baseman appeared in two games in the rookie-level Florida Complex League last week before he was cleared to join Bradenton.

Toglia is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Orlando Arcia will get the start at first base while Toglia exits the lineup for the first time since July 3. Since slugging his 10th home run of the season in a July 6 win over the White Sox, Toglia's production has tailed off at the plate. He's slashing just .125/.200/.188 with a pair of extra-base hits (both doubles) and a 40 percent strikeout rate over his last nine games.

Freeman (wrist) is starting at first base and batting fourth against the Twins on Monday.

Freeman exited in the sixth inning of Sunday's loss to the Brewers after he was hit by a pitch. He's avoided a serious injury and won't need to miss any additional action. Freeman is slashing .292/.365/.471 with 10 home runs, 49 RBI, 47 runs scored, one stolen base and a 35:84 BB:K across 367 trips to the plate this season. He also leads the league with 26 doubles.

Kemp will start at third base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Red Sox.

After going 3-for-7 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run while starting at the hot corner in both of the final two games of the Phillies' weekend series with the Angels, Kemp will remain in the lineup Monday. The rookie looks set to see the bulk of the playing time at third base while Alec Bohm is on the shelf due to a fractured left rib.

Smith is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Atlanta.

Smith has been serving as the Giants' primary first baseman against right-handed pitching, but he will take a seat in Monday's series opener. Wilmer Flores will draw the start at first base and bat seventh for San Francisco while Atlanta sends righty Bryce Elder to the hill.

Wagaman is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Padres.

Wagaman had started each of the previous two games, but he'll hit the bench for the third time in four matchups versus a right-handed starting pitcher. Liam Hicks will get the nod at first base and will bat sixth for Miami.

Alonso (hand) will start at first base and bat cleanup in Monday's game against the Angels.

Alonso didn't start in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Reds after being hit on the right hand by a pitch Saturday. However, he was able to enter Sunday's contest as a defensive replacement and is back in the Mets lineup for Monday's series opener.
