Donovan is considered day-to-day with a left shin abrasion, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

This minor issue is what prompted the Cardinals to scratch Donovan from their starting lineup Tuesday night against the Diamondbacks. Nolan Gorman will cover second base and Taylor Motter is in at third.

Donovan was scratched from the Cardinals' lineup Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

There's no reason yet for the sudden change. Nolan Gorman is now starting at second base and batting fifth, with Taylor Motter entering the lineup at third base and hitting eighth.

Wisely was recalled Tuesday from Triple-A Sacramento, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Wisely made the Opening Day roster out of Giants camp this spring before getting sent down after just one game. He'll get another look coming off a huge weekend showing for Sacramento, including a four-double game Sunday.

Urias (hamstring) was transferred Tuesday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Urias suffered a severe left hamstring strain in the Brewers' season opener March 30 against the Cubs. The initial timeline called for him to miss at least eight weeks, so this is mostly just a procedural move to clear out a 40-man roster spot.

Bae went 1-for-4 with two RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base in Monday's 14-3 win over the Rockies.

The Pirates scored six runs in the second inning of a blowout win, and Bae contributed to the rally with a bunt single that drove in one. He then proceeded to steal third base to tally his fifth stolen bag of the season. Though Pittsburgh shifts its lineup considerably when a lefty is on the mound, Bae has been a consistence presence in the batting order regardless of handedness and has an everyday role on the team. Through 55 plate appearances, he has chipped in 10 runs scored and eight RBI despite hitting just .220/.278/.380.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's 6-3 win over the Cardinals.

Marte delivered Josh Rojas, who had doubled to lead off the game, then gave the Diamondbacks a 2-1 lead in the seventh with his second homer of the season. His bat came around during the second full week of baseball, as Marte has batted .296 (8-for-29) with four extra-base hits over the last seven games.

Turang went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-2 win against Seattle.

Turang began the game on the bench with lefty Chris Flexen on the mound for Seattle, but the rookie got a chance to hit for Owen Miller in the seventh inning. Turang came through with a solo homer for his second career long ball. He's holding his own in the majors thus far as the Brewers' primary second baseman, slashing .283/.340/.435 with seven runs, six RBI and three steals over 16 games.

Hoerner went 2-for-5 with an RBI, three runs scored, a stolen base and a walk in Monday's 10-1 win over Oakland.

Hoerner singled in a run and scored during the Cubs' four-run sixth inning. He crossed home three times in the big win, bringing him to 16 runs scored with an MLB-leading nine steals through 15 games. Hoerner posted his eighth multi-hit game and improved his slash line to .338/.394/.385.

Mathias went 4-for-5 with two runs scored and one RBI in Monday's 14-3 win over the Rockies.

Mathias was in a 1-for-15 skid to begin his Pirates career before knocking four singles Monday. He's made six appearances - all at second base - since being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on April 10. The 28-year-old is now hitting .250 at the MLB level this season.

Turang is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

Turang will take a seat on the bench to begin the series in Seattle after going 1-for-4 against the Padres on Sunday. Owen Miller will handle second base duties against Chris Flexen and the Mariners while hitting eighth.
