Tomlinson went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI Wednesday against the Padres.

Tomlinson drove in his first run since May 3, and he has been seeing the ball pretty well of late going 6-for-14 in his last seven games. The 25-year-old has hit an impressive .344 with an OPS of .782 in 57 at-bats this year.

Renda has a .281/.331/.419 line after playing 44 games at Double-A Pensacola.

After being acquired from the Yankees in the Aroldis Chapman trade, Renda has shown his value to the Reds organization by posting his best Double-A numbers to date. Renda's 13 doubles, three triples, and home run have contributed to his career best slugging percentage of .419. Before hitting a rough patch in mid-May, he'd been sustaining a batting average above .300. Pensacola would especially like Renda to recover from his slump, for he's a threat while on base and has yet to be caught stealing this season.

Beckham is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers.

This appears to be a normal day off for Beckham, although it could be a nice mental break as well considering the third baseman is hitless in his last three games. Chase d'Arnaud will take over for him at the hot corner Wednesday.

Hernandez is in the lineup for Monday's matchup with the Reds.

Hernandez will start in left field and bat leadoff in Monday's series opener with the Reds. He last started Friday night, and went 1-for-3 with a double and run scored. Hernandez is slashing just. .200/.297/.325 on the season.

Solarte will be out of the lineup for Monday's outing against the Giants.

Solarte has played the last two games at second base, but the Padres will opt to start Alexi Amarista for Monday's game in San Francisco. Because Solarte just came off the DL on Saturday, he will have the night off to rest and could return to the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Giants.

Tomlinson will start at second base and bat second for San Francisco on Monday.

Tomlinson will get the nod to set up a righty-lefty matchup with San Diego's Drew Pomeranz on the mound. The 25-year-old will replace Joe Panik, who, interestingly, is batting .309 against lefties this season whereas Tomlinson is hitting just .238.

Solarte hit cleanup for the Padres is his first game back from the disabled list Sunday and went 0-for-6 with a walk while playing all 17 innings in the field in a winning effort.

After starting the game at second base, Solarte eventually shifted to third as the Padres made several adjustments throughout the getaway day marathon. The switch-hitting Solarte may be moved around the order frequently by manager Andy Green, but it's expected that he'll see regular time at the keystone with Brett Wallace manning third base against right-handed pitchers.

Drury went 2-for-4 with a run and an RBI in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.

Drury continues to play almost every day--and hit--for the Diamondbacks. He started at third on Sunday, with Jake Lamb sitting against lefty Jaime Garcia, but Drury has primarily been playing in the outfield, where Arizona is thin due to injuries to A.J. Pollock and David Peralta. Drury is worth owning in most leagues due to his strong offensive production (.306/.335/.531, seven home runs, 15 RBI) and multi-position potential.

Adames went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer in Saturday's 5-1 victory over the Pirates.

The 24-year-old blasted a two-out, two-run shot off reliever Jared Hughes, adding to the Rockies' lead and marking the first time he'd gone deep in 106 major league at-bats. Despite the positive development, Adames is receiving limited playing time, and only slashing .184/.262/.263 in 38 at-bats this season.

Solarte (hamstring) was activated from the disabled list Saturday.

Solarte will rejoin the Padres after a two rehab starts with Triple-A El Paso. He went 5-for-7 with one double and two triples during his time in Triple-A. Jose Pirela has been optioned to make room for Solarte.
