Guillorme isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Guillorme has gone 4-for-13 with a run and two strikeouts across the last four games, and he'll get a breather while Jose Peraza starts at third base and bats ninth. The 26-year-old could see a decrease in playing time in the near future once Jonathan Villar (calf) is reinstated from the injured list.

Estrada went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, a double and five RBI in Friday's 11-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

Estrada had the best game of his young career Friday night. He notched his first-ever three-hit game and had at least three RBI for the first time since May 19, 2019. The 25-year-old doubled home a run in the fifth and then sealed the game with a grand slam in the ninth to put his team up 11-4. He hadn't recorded a hit in two at-bats this season coming into the game and should continue to hold a depth role around the infield despite breaking out with a stellar performance.

Albies went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 1-0 win over the Marlins.

After Ronald Acuna got hit by the first pitch of the game, Albies cashed him in with a sacrifice fly, and that was all the offense either squad could muster on the night. The second baseman has hit safely in five straight games and swiped a bag in three straight, continuing a hot stretch that has seen him slash .322/.362/.593 since the beginning of June with six homers, 10 steals, 19 runs and 31 RBI through 30 games.

Marte (hamstring) took at-bats in a live batting practice session Friday but did not run out of the batter's box, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Marte, who was placed on the injured list earlier in the week, is trying to stay sharp while recovering from his second IL stay due to balky hamstrings.

Guillorme is not in the lineup Friday against the Yankees.

Guillorme started the past 10 games at third base but will take a seat after going 7-for-30 (.233 averaged) during that stretch. The 26-year-old may see a downturn in playing time in the near future with Jonathan Villar (calf) potentially returning from the injured list this weekend.

India went 2-for-3 with two doubles, one RBI, a run scored, two walks and a stolen base in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Padres.

India had quite the offensive day, tallying multiple extra-base hits for the fourth time this season. He added his seventh steal when he stole third base in the first inning. The 24-year-old is slashing .268/.384/.408 with six home runs, seven steals, 31 RBI and 38 runs in 277 plate appearances. He is batting .326 with three steals and 13 runs scored over his last 12 games.

Rodgers went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run and a walk as Colorado beat St. Louis, 5-2 on Thursday.

Rodgers tagged Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright for a two-run homer in the second, singled in the fourth and walked with two out in the ninth to ignite the game-winning rally. It was the young infielder's second straight two-hit performance as he's now slashing .290/.374/.486 in 34 games.

Lux isn't starting Thursday's game against the Nationals, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Lux hasn't been very effective at the plate recently, as he's gone just 2-for-25 with a run, an RBI, a stolen base, six walks and six strikeouts across the last nine games. Chris Taylor will start at shortstop and bat second.

Urias is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates.

Urias will get a well-deserved breather Thursday after he ignited the Brewers with a 4-for-5 afternoon in the team's thrilling 15-7 win over the Cubs on Wednesday. Kolten Wong (calf) will check back into the lineup after a four-game absence, so Urias should drop in the order after he filled in at the leadoff spot while Wong was out.

Albies went 5-for-6 with a pair of home runs, a stolen base, seven RBI and two additional runs in Wednesday's 20-2 win over the Mets.

After driving in only six runs over the previous 11 games for a struggling Atlanta offense, Albies was at the center of the team's offensive eruption Wednesday. The five-hit day was the first of Albies' career, and helped him improve his OPS to .857 on the season. That's five points better than the career-best mark he posted in 2019.
