The Padres placed McCoy on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a sprained finger on his left hand.

McCoy is 0-for-5 with three strikeouts since being recalled from Triple-A on April 21, and he'll now need to wait at least 10 days before getting another chance to record his first big-league hit of the season. Luis Arraez (concussion) will return from the injured list Tuesday to make up for the loss of McCoy in San Diego's infield.

Fitzgerald (chest) will start at second base and bat ninth in Tuesday's game against the Padres, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

A chest contusion has prevented Fitzgerald from playing in either of the Giants' last two games, but he seems to have fully recovered ahead of Tuesday's contest. The 27-year-old has slashed .294/.351/.412 over the past two weeks, though he is hitless in his last seven trips to the plate.

McNeil is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Arizona.

With lefty Eduardo Rodriguez on the bump for the Diamondbacks, McNeil will take a seat. In three games since returning from the injured list, McNeil has already seen action at second base and in center and right field. Luisangel Acuna is starting at second Tuesday.

Stott is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

With left-hander MacKenzie Gore on the mound for the Nationals, Stott will come off the bench Tuesday. Edmundo Sosa is getting the nod at second base and batting seventh.

Amador is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

Amador will come off the bench for the second time in the last three days. Since being recalled from Triple-A earlier this month, Amador is slashing .219/.286/.406 with three doubles, one home run, three RBI and two runs scored across 36 plate appearances. Kyle Farmer is getting the nod at second base and batting seventh versus AJ Smith-Shawver.

Frazier is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

It's southpaw Shota Imanaga on the bump for the Cubs, so the left-handed-hitting Frazier will grab a seat. Jared Triolo will play second base and bat eighth for the Pirates.

Estrada (wrist) has resumed fielding drills and light swinging of the bat, MLB.com reports.

Estrada fractured his wrist late in spring training and was recently shifted to the 60-day injured list. This progress is positive news, but he'll be sidelined until at least late May.

McLain went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Monday's 3-1 win over the Cardinals.

McLain's seventh-inning single was his first hit in a week. It ended an 0-for-21 stretch that dropped his average to .157. He's had bad luck early on, as McLain is in the top tier in barrel (18.6 percent, 94th percentile) and hard-hit (53.5, 90th) rates through 20 games. Over time, results begin to correct, which suggests McLain is due for a productive stretch.

McNeil went 2-for-5 with a homer, a triple and three RBI in Monday's 19-5 victory at Washington.

McNeil took starter Trevor Williams deep in the fifth inning, crushing the ball 420 feet for his first long ball of the season. The 33-year-old also cracked his first triple of the season in the sixth inning. McNeil made his fourth career start in center field in this game, and he could be in line to receive regular playing time there with Jose Siri (leg) out until at least June.

Farmer is not in the lineup for Monday's game versus Atlanta.

Farmer's playing time has been slipping lately, as he's now been in the lineup for just half of the Rockies' last eight games and just one of their last four tilts versus right-handers. Alan Trejo is at shortstop and Adael Amador is at second base in Monday's series opener.
