Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 win over San Diego.

Schmitt hit a double to left field in the first inning before coming around to score one of the Giants' four runs in the frame. The 26-year-old infielder returned to action Monday after missing two straight games due to a right forearm contusion. Over 12 games this month, he's slashing .283/.353/.500 with seven RBI, six runs scored, four doubles and two home runs across 51 plate appearances. Overall, he has posted a .251/.326/.407 slash line with 24 RBI, 21 runs scored, 10 doubles and seven homers across 222 plate appearances this season.

Hoerner is out of the lineup for the opening game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Brewers.

After double-play partner Dansby Swanson received a rare rest day in Monday's 7-0 loss to Milwaukee, Hoerner will take a seat for the first game of the day and the second contest of a five-game set with the NL Central leaders. Willi Castro will step in at second base in place of Hoerner, who had started in every game dating back to April 8.

Marte went 1-for-5 with a double in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Guardians.

Rather than as a result of his performance, Marte drew more attention Monday when he spoke to the media prior to the contest and addressed a recent article in The Arizona Republic that suggested teammates and others in the organization have been irked about the second baseman's propensity to take days off. Per Steve Gilbert of MLB.com, Marte said through an interpreter that his absences from the lineup have been largely "integrated with the coaching staff and myself, in order to keep me on the field the longest." Marte has received some occasional days off since returning to action in early May after a stint on the injured list due to a hamstring strain, and he also missed the Diamondbacks' first three games of the second half after his home was burglarized during the All-Star Game. Any controversy pertaining to Marte's tendency to take days off hasn't affected his performance; he's slashing .309/.396/.515 with four home runs, eight doubles, one steal, 16 RBI and 17 runs scored over 25 games in the second half.

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.
