Chisholm went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases against Cincinnati in a loss Sunday.

New York racked up six thefts as a team Sunday, but none of the base stealers ended up scoring. Chisholm's stolen bases were his eighth and ninth through 17 contests in June, and he's now up to 23 on the campaign, putting him on pace to surpass his career-best mark of 40 steals, which he established in 2024. Chisholm has complemented his work on the basepaths with 11 homers, and he's one of four major-leaguers so far with at least 10 long balls and 20 thefts on the campaign.

Monasterio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Monasterio will be on the bench for a second straight game while the Red Sox give Anthony Seigler another turn at second base. Boston went with Monasterio at the keystone in each of the three games before that, with the 29-year-old going 2-for-10 with four strikeouts in those contests. Monasterio and Seigler could work in a timeshare at the position while the Red Sox are without all of Trevor Story (sports hernia), Romy Gonzalez (shoulder/hip), Nick Sogard (oblique) and Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm).

McNeil is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

The left-handed-hitting McNeil will retreat to the bench for the series finale while the Athletics face off against Angels lefty Reid Detmers. McNeil had started in each of the Athletics' previous seven games, going 5-for-18 (.278 average) with one home run, one double, two walks, four RBI and four runs.

Peraza is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Peraza is on the bench for a second straight game while the Angels go up against another right-handed starter (Jack Perkins). Though the right-handed-hitting Peraza should remain a mainstay in the lineup versus lefties, playing time against same-handed pitching could prove to be more elusive after the Angels recently returned Vaughn Grissom from the injured list and called up Christian Moore from Triple-A Salt Lake.

Lopez will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Padres.

Lopez will remain in the starting nine for a third straight game after he went 2-for-7 over the first two contests of the series. The 31-year-old journeyman could be in store for a regular role until Texas gets Corey Seager (concussion) back from the 7-day injured list.

Holliday (groin) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Holliday will miss out at least one start after he was lifted in the eighth inning of Saturday's 3-2 win due to groin tightness, though he said that he's not overly concerned about the injury and thinks that he could play off the bench Sunday if needed, per Jake Rill of MLB.com. Jeremiah Jackson came on the replace him Saturday and will draw the start at second base in Holliday's stead in the series finale.

Palacios is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

With left-hander Andrew Alvarez on the bump for the Nationals, Palacios will give way to platoon mate Ben Williamson at second base in the series finale. Palacios has logged just 26 plate appearances versus lefties on the season, slashing .250/.308/.333 in those matchups.

Clement (hip) had been slated to start at shortstop and bat sixth Sunday against the Cubs before the game was postponed due to inclement weather in Chicago.

Clement was held out of the starting nine the previous two games due to left hip soreness, but the injury doesn't look as though it will be a concern for the infielder heading into a seven-game week. Clement made an appearance off the bench in Saturday's 8-6 win, playing three innings at shortstop while going 0-for-2.

Seigler started at second base, batted leadoff and went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Mariners.

Seigler, who had been traveling with the team for its six-game road trip out west, was officially recalled from Triple-A Worcester earlier in the day and added to the starting lineup. The left-handed batter should be part of the mix at second base along with Andruw Monasterio while Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm) is on the 10-day injured list. This is Seigler's second stint with the Red Sox.

Lee is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Lee will retreat to the bench for the series finale after he went 3-for-13 with a double, an RBI and a run while starting at second base over the past four games. The Tigers will go with Zach McKinstry at the keystone Sunday, but McKinstry can be moved around to other spots on the diamond or in the corner outfield if manager A.J. Hinch is keen on keeping Lee in the lineup on a regular basis while Gleyber Torres (oblique) is on the shelf.
