Bour was placed on the 10-day DL on Tuesday with a right oblique strain, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

It is unclear how much time the Marlins' slugger will miss with the injury, but he will likely be out until at least mid-August. Tomas Telis was promoted from Triple-A as a corresponding move, but Tyler Moore is expected to see the bulk of the starts at first base while Bour is sidelined.

Hoskins went 1-for-4 with his 23rd home run of the season Monday for Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Hoskins has now smacked three long balls in four games, bringing him into a tie with teammate Dylan Cozens for the International League lead. The first baseman has shown that his 38-homer breakout with Double-A Reading -- one of the more favorable hitting environments in the Eastern League -- wasn't a mirage, as his slugging percentage and OPS this season at Lehigh Valley are roughly in line with what he posted in 2016.

Bell went 3-for-5 with an RBI double Monday against the Giants.

He's slashing .364/.400/.652 with three homers and 17 RBI in his last 70 plate appearances, lifting his batting average to its highest mark (.253) since May 24. Bell's recent hot streak started after his only off-day of the season July 4. With 18 homers and an .818 OPS, the first baseman might be better positioned for NL Rookie of the Year honors if not for the Dodgers' Cody Bellinger.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-3 with a double, two walks, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 10-2 win over the Braves.

While it was a productive night for Goldschmidt from a real-life standpoint in that he reached base three times, those in standard 5x5 leagues haven't reaped many benefits from the first baseman's patient eye at the plate. Goldschmidt has racked up nine walks in his last seven games, but has mustered only four hits in 21 at-bats to go with three runs and three RBI during that span. There's no reason to bench him in any season-long league, but Goldschmidt might not make for as attractive of a DFS lineup cornerstone until he starts piling up the base knocks again.

Voit went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Monday's victory over the Rockies.

Monday's single was the young first baseman's first hit since July 19 even though he's collected four starts since then due to the injury to Matt Carpenter (quad). Voit still sports an .841 OPS on the year, but this rough patch isn't leading anyone to believe he deserves a regular role once Carpenter is back in the fold.

Flores went 1-for-4 with his 10th home run Monday in San Diego.

Flores came into this one with a .522 slugging percentage against left-handed pitching, so it's not surprising that he found success against starter Clayton Richard. His ability to move all around the infield defensively has been crucial for a New York team that's been hit hard by the injury bug, and it certainly helps that the 25-year-old can handle himself at the plate to boot. Flores has now hit double-digit home runs in three consecutive campaigns, as he launched 16 in each of the past two seasons.

Manager Don Mattingly reported Monday that Bour (oblique) will likely soon be placed on the 10-day disabled list, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Bour exited Monday's contest with a strained right oblique. It's currently unclear exactly how much time he'll miss, but the slugging first baseman will be sidelined for at least the next 10 days, if not more. Tyler Moore projects to fill in at first base in his absence. An official announcement on Bour's status will likely come Tuesday.

Bour exited Monday's game against the Rangers with a right oblique strain.

Bour opened the game as the Marlins' designated hitter, but he was lifted from the contest after grounding into a double play during his first at-bat. An oblique strain typically results in a trip to the disabled list, but the team is listing the power-hitting first baseman as day-to-day for the time being.

Votto went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Sunday's win over the Marlins. He went 4-for-33 (albeit with seven walks) over the Reds' 10-game homestand, the Dayton Daily News reports.

Votto has gone through similar slumps (the first half of 2016 comes to mind), but he always seems to find a way to come through. Barring news of an injury, there's little reason for owners to worry here.

Cabrera is out of the lineup Sunday against the A's, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Cabrera drew a start at third base Saturday, but had previously started eight consecutive games at the keystone. He'll break that streak Sunday, while T.J. Rivera draws the start at second base with Wilmer Flores at third.
