Lowe went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs in a win over the Diamondbacks on Monday.

Lowe contributed one of four multi-hit efforts for the Rays in an auspicious night for the offense. The rookie has now hit safely in six of his first seven big-league contests, although Monday's two-bagger marked his first extra-base hit since his April 29 debut.

The Giants plan to call up Solano from Triple-A Sacramento ahead of Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Along with Solano, the Giants are planning on calling outfielder Mac Williamson up from Sacramento prior to the three-game series in Colorado. Neither Solano nor Williamson possess spots on the 40-man roster, so the Giants will have to remove two players from the roster to facilitate their promotions. The 31-year-old Solano has seen time at second base, third base and shortstop this season and is hitting .322/.392/.437 across 97 plate appearances in the Pacific Coast League. He'll likely serve as a utility man while he's up with the Giants.

Guerrero went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and committed an error in Tuesday's 8-0 loss to the Twins.

Baseball's No. 1 prospect has looked mortal through his first nine games in the big leagues, recording only five hits in 33 at-bats while striking out 27 percent of the time. Given Guerrero's elite hit and power tools and the unprecedented level of success he enjoyed in the upper rungs of the minors, it should be just a matter of time before he makes the necessary adjustments to big-league pitching.

Freeman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Dodgers.

He took Walker Buehler deep in the sixth inning for his seventh homer of the year. Freeman has been scuffling a little at the plate recently, going 10-for-30 (.256) over the last 10 games, but he's still gone yard four times in that stretch and remains on pace for another outstanding campaign.

Rizzo went 2-for-4 with a walk and a two-run home run in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Marlins.

Rizzo wasted no time in hitting his ninth home run of the season, as he connected off Miami starter Sandy Alcantara in the first inning with a runner on. The blast also gave Rizzo 200 for his career, 199 of which have come since being traded to the Cubs in 2012. The 29-year-old has hit 30 or more home runs four times in the previous five seasons, with the 25 he launched in 2018 representing a low water mark in that span.

Voit went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in the Yankees' 7-3 win over the Mariners on Monday.

That's now 10 homers for Voit, who touched up Felix Hernandez with a two-run shot in the first inning to get the Yankees rolling. He continues to impress early in the season, as the 28-year-old now boasts a .260/.373/.520 slash line through 127 at-bats.

Olson (hand) will be activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Olson has been cleared to rejoin the A's ahead of Tuesday's game against the Reds after completing a five-game rehab stint with Triple-A Las Vegas, during which he went 4-for-22 (.182) with a homer and two RBI. To make room for Olson, the Athletics are expected to designate Kendrys Morales for assignment. Look for Olson to immediately reclaim his role as the team's primary first baseman, though he may be eased back into action given the extended length of his absence.

Cooper (hand) started a hitting progression Monday, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports.

Cooper landed on the injured list over the weekend due to a left hand contusion, though the fact that he's already been cleared to resume hitting suggests his stay on the shelf may not be an extended one. The 28-year-old will be eligible to return May 11, should he prove ready.

Cabrera went 2-for-4 with his seventh home run of the season, four RBI and two runs in Sunday's 10-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Cabrera kicked off the scoring for the afternoon with an RBI double in the bottom of the second, then plated three more runs when he took Clay Buchholz deep an inning later. While Cabrera's .263 ISO would be a career-high mark, an uptick in his strikeout rate (23.6 percent) along with a deflated .234 BABIP has limited him to a .232 average thus far. Unless Cabrera adjusts his plate approach and trades more fly balls for line drives, his batting-average floor may be lower than his investors anticipated heading into draft day.

Olson (hand) went 2-for-5 with an RBI single and two runs in Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Fresno on Sunday.

Olson has now hit safely in three straight rehab games and has a pair of RBI during that stretch. The 25-year-old is likely to be evaluated Monday for a possible activation Tuesday.
