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.

Mountcastle went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored Saturday in the Orioles' 4-3 loss to the Twins.

Mountcastle has now produced a double in three straight games, bringing his total up to 17 for the season. He'll be included in the lineup for Sunday's series finale, manning first base and batting third.

Naylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

With southpaw Jordan Montgomery on the bump for the Yankees in the series finale, the lefty-hitting Naylor will retreat to the bench. Platoon mate Owen Miller replaces Naylor at first base.

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.

Torkelson (head) will start at first base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Royals.

The prized rookie was hit in the head by a pitch in Friday's series opener and sat out Saturday's 4-3 win as a result, but he apparently passed all concussion tests in advance of Sunday's contest and will reclaim his spot in the lineup. Torkelson closed June with a .167/.224/.205 slash line and hasn't demonstrated the improvement the Tigers were counting on after what had been an already rough start to his big-league career.

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.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Saturday's victory over the Phillies.

Goldschmidt scored in the first inning thanks to a Nolan Arenado home run, then again on a Lars Nootbaar walk with the bases loaded in the fifth. The first baseman continued his spectacular season with back-to-back two hit performances. He has at least one hit in six of his last seven games, including four multi-hit performances, and is now slashing .346/.428/.633 on the season.

Calhoun went 2-for-4 with two home runs in Saturday's 7-3 win against the Mets.

Calhoun's first long ball was a three-run shot that gave Texas its first lead in the second inning, and he added on to that with a solo homer in the fourth. Prior to Saturday, the veteran outfielder had been mired in a power drought, going deep just once over his previous 29 games. Calhoun has been a streaky hitter throughout his career, so he's worth keeping an eye on to see if Saturday's performance is the start of another hot period.

Wade went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the White Sox.

Wade has gone 2-for-12 in three games since he returned from a knee injury. The outfielder took the second pitch from Dylan Cease and put it over the fence, though the Giants didn't strike again until the eighth inning. Wade should play regularly against right-handed pitchers while serving primarily as an option in the corner outfield positions. He's batting .216/.318/.378 with two homers, six RBI and five runs scored through 13 games in what's so far been an injury-riddled campaign.

Walker went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs, a walk and three total runs scored in Saturday's 11-7 loss to the Rockies.

Walker went six games without a homer entering Saturday, his third-longest power drought of the year. He went deep in the second inning and then added another long ball in the sixth, giving him 21 on the year. The slugger continues to hover around the Mendoza Line -- he's batting .206 -- but he's added a .799 OPS in 311 plate appearances. He sits at 44 RBI, 43 runs scored, 10 doubles and a triple through 76 contests.
