Wade (elbow) is in the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Wade sat Sunday with a sore elbow, but that will be the extent of his absence. He will man right field and hit fifth against Diamondbacks southpaw Madison Bumgarner.

Tellez is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Tellez went 0-for-9 over his last two games and the Brewers will be facing a southpaw Monday, so manager Craig Counsell decided to give Tellez a day off. Victor Caratini will man first base in Tellez's place.

Cooper isn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals, Joe Frisaro of ManOnSecondBaseball.com reports.

Cooper snapped a five-game hitting streak Sunday when he went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts, and he'll get a breather a day later. Jacob Stallings is serving as the designated hitter while Nick Fortes takes over behind the plate.

Bell went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, a double, two runs and a strikeout in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Marlins.

The Nationals were unable to generate any runs over the first six innings of Sunday's matchup, but Bell hit a go-ahead homer in the bottom of the eighth inning. Although the team was unable to pick up the win, the 29-year-old now has 10 extra-base hits over the last nine games, and he's hit .531 with a homer, a triple, seven doubles, seven runs and three RBI during that time.

Hoskins went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Cardinals.

Hoskins' power surge continued Sunday, as he homered for the fourth time in his last five games. He's hit safely in seven straight contests, going 9-for-24 (.375) in that span while adding three doubles, five RBI and seven runs. The first baseman's surge over the last week has him up to a .257/.350/.500 slash line for the season. He's added 17 long balls, 42 RBI, 44 runs scored, 16 doubles and two triples in 337 plate appearances.

Cron went 2-for-4 with a pair of three-run home runs in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

Cron brought Colorado all the way back from a 5-0 deficit with a three-run home run off Zac Gallen in the sixth inning and another three-run shot off reliever Noe Ramirez in the eighth. The pair of long balls were the 32-year-old's first since June 18, though the two-hit performance extended Cron's hitting streak to a modest eight games. During the stretch, he's 11-for-32 with two home runs and two doubles.

Flores will start at second base and bat fifth in Sunday's game against the White Sox, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

The Giants included Flores in the lineup in only one of the previous three contests, but he could settle into a full-time role at second base in the short term after Thairo Estrada (illness) was placed on the COVID-19-related injured list. As of Sunday, Estrada is merely symptomatic of the virus and hasn't tested positive, so he could return for the Giants' upcoming three-game series in Arizona if he continues to test negative and if his symptoms begin to dissipate. Even if Estrada makes a quick return, Flores should still be a fixture in the starting nine versus left-handed pitching.

Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox due to a bruised elbow, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

The Giants are viewing Wade as day-to-day with the elbow injury, which he sustained when he ran into the right-field wall on a catch late in Saturday's 5-3 loss. Mike Yastrzemski will pick up the start in right field Sunday in place of Wade, who is viewed as day-to-day.

Cron went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored Saturday against the Diamondbacks.

Cron delivered separate RBI singles in the first and sixth innings. He's in the midst of a seven-game hitting streak, during which he's tallied six RBI and a run scored while hitting .321. Cron is putting together another strong season in Colorado, maintaining a .295/.347/.531 line across 334 plate appearances.

Bohm went 2-for-5 with a triple and two runs scored in Saturday's loss against St. Louis.

Bohm scored on a second-inning sac fly from Matt Vierling and again on a Yairo Munoz double in the third. The third baseman extended his hit streak to seven games, including four multi-hit performances. Bohm has improved his batting average from .259 to .265 during that span.
