Gorman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 8-3 victory over the Marlins.

Gorman waited until the ninth inning to notch his first hit, but he made it count with a two-run blast off Josh Simpson that put the game out of reach. Filling in regularly at third base with Nolan Arenado (shoulder) sidelined, Gorman has held his own in August, slashing .250/.365/.477 with a double, three homers and nine RBI across 14 games.

Turang went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI against the Cubs in a 7-0 victory Monday.

Turang broke the seal on the scoring in the contest with a solo shot to left field in the third inning, then added a run-scoring single in the eighth. The long ball was Turang's seventh over his past 14 contests -- a somewhat improbable stretch for the infielder, who went deep seven times over 155 games last season and whose hard-hit rate ranked in the bottom ninth percentile leaguewide during that campaign. This year, Turang has lifted his hard-hit rate all the way up to the 62nd percentile, and that's paid off with 13 home runs to go along with 60 RBI, 74 runs and 21 stolen bases along with a solid .763 OPS through 119 games.

Schmitt (forearm) is starting at third base and batting in the cleanup spot against the Padres on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Schmitt was held out of the Giants' lineup for the past two games due to a right forearm contusion, but he has been cleared to return to action for Monday's series opener. The 26-year-old infielder has a .709 OPS with four doubles, three home runs and eight RBI in 82 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

Edwards is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

The Marlins haven't indicated that Edwards is dealing with an injury, so his absence from the lineup is likely just a planned rest day. The newly recalled Maximo Acosta will fill in at second base in place of Edwards, who started every game dating back to July 1 while slashing .331/.364/.461 with two home runs, nine stolen bases, 31 runs and 15 RBI over that 42-game stretch.

The Diamondbacks optioned Kaiser to Triple-A Reno following Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Kaiser was called up by the Diamondbacks on Aug. 1 and saw his first major-league action since 2023, when he was a member of the Rockies. He appeared in five games (four starts) and went 2-for-14 (.143 average) with two RBI over that span. Kaiser will give up his spot on the 26-man active roster to infielder Ildemaro Vargas (foot), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list.

Arizona reinstated Vargas (foot) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

Vargas has fully recovered from a fractured fifth metatarsal in his right foot that landed him on the 10-day IL in late June. He recorded a hit in each of his last three rehab games with Triple-A Reno, going 3-for-11 (.273) with two runs, one triple and one RBI over that span. Vargas will likely serve in a depth role in the infield upon his return, though he could get starts at third base in games which Blaze Alexander is out of the lineup.

The Cardinals placed Donovan on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left groin strain.

The Cardinals played a man short over the weekend with the hope that Donovan would be ready to return to the lineup early this week. However, he was ultimately not able to show enough improvement to avoid a stint on the IL. Donovan's IL placement is retroactive to Friday, so he will be eligible for activation Aug. 25. Thomas Saggese should continue to see the bulk of the playing time at second base in Donovan's stead.

Saggese will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Marlins.

With Brendan Donovan (groin) landing on the injured list after sitting out each of the Cardinals' previous three contests, Saggese looks to have some short-term security in St. Louis' everyday lineup. Saggese will draw a ninth straight start Monday, after he went 9-for-30 (.300 average) with two RBI, three runs and one stolen base over the previous eight contests. However, Saggese has posted a .409 BABIP and a 0:8 BB:K during that eight-game stretch, so his overall production could look less appealing once his good fortune on balls in play inevitably takes a turn for the worse.

The Mets optioned Acuna to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

Acuna was up with the big club for just one day, after the Mets designated him as their 27th man for Sunday's 7-3 win over the Mariners in the Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pa. He played second base in the final two innings of the game but didn't receive a plate appearance.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Edman (ankle) has been able to take part in baseball activities and remains likely to return from the 10-day injured list at some point in early September, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Edman is further away from a return from the IL than fellow utility players Hyeseong Kim (shoulder) and Enrique Hernandez (elbow), both of whom are set to begin rehab assignments with Triple-A Oklahoma City this week. A clearer timeline for Edman's return should emerge once he's cleared for a rehab assignment, which could happen soon after he reaches the point in his recovery program that he's able to run the bases without any restrictions. Edman was placed on the IL on Aug. 4 due to a right ankle sprain, the same ankle that he had previously injured earlier in the season.
