  • Andres Gimenez 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Returns from IL

    The Blue Jays reinstated Gimenez (ankle) from the 10-day injured list and he is starting at second base Tuesday versus the Cubs.

    Gimenez, who sprained his left ankle in early July, played in five games during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo. He went 7-for-18 with a stolen base and three runs scored. With the second baseman returning Tuesday, Buddy Kennedy was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Back in lineup Tuesday

    Donovan (groin) is back in the lineup and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Rockies.

    Donovan hasn't started since last Friday, but he did pinch-hit Monday against the Rockies, delivering a go-ahead two-run double in the bottom of the eighth inning. The All-Star second baseman is slashing .280/.351/.406 with 25 doubles, nine home runs, 45 RBI, 57 runs scored, three stolen bases and a 40:61 BB:K across 467 trips to the plate this season.

  • Jazz Chisholm 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Homers, swipes bag Monday

    Chisholm went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 6-2 victory versus Minnesota.

    Chisholm hit one of four solo homers by New York in the win, going deep to right-center field in the eighth inning. The veteran infielder also swiped a bag in the game, moving him to 15 thefts along with 20 home runs on the season. He's one of only 10 major-leaguers to have reached both marks so far this season.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Astros' Ramon Urias: Big offensive output in win

    Urias went 3-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's victory over the Red Sox.

    Urias played a key role in Monday's win, collecting a pair of extra-base hits. Since joining the Astros, the infielder has slashed .333/.400/.611 over seven games with two doubles, a homer and three RBI. He has started three of the last seven games and makes for a nice option in deeper daily leagues, especially when he's at home, as he is well-suited to take advantage of the Crawford Boxes in left field.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Power surge continues in rout

    Turang went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 7-1 win over Pittsburgh.

    Although Turang's seven-game hitting streak came to an end as a pinch hitter in Sunday's win over the Mets, he now has at least one knock in eight consecutive starts. The speedy second baseman is on a tear to begin August -- Turang is hitting .353 with five homers, three doubles, 11 RBI and two stolen bases over 34 at-bats so far this month.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Delivers clutch hit off bench

    Donovan (groin) recorded a two-RBI double in a pinch-hit appearance Monday against the Rockies.

    Donovan was called upon in the bottom of the eighth inning and put his club ahead with a clutch double. The 28-year-old hadn't taken an at-bat since Friday due to a left groin injury, but if he emerges from Monday's matchup feeling healthy, there's a chance he could return to the starting lineup Tuesday.

  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Sitting out Monday

    Schmitt is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Padres.

    It's a routine day off for Schmitt, who started the previous four and 10 of the last 11 games. Christian Koss will play second base and bat eighth for the Giants in Monday's series opener.

  • Angels' Christian Moore: Out of Monday's lineup

    Moore is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Dodgers.

    Moore is just 3-for-20 at the plate since returning from a thumb injury, and this will be the second time over the last three contests that he's began the game on the bench. Luis Rengifo will handle second base and bat seventh for the Angels.

  • Scott Kingery 2B | CHC

    Angels' Scott Kingery: Jettisoned from 40-man roster

    The Angels designated Kingery for assignment Monday.

    The move makes room on the Angels' 40-man roster for Shaun Anderson, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Salt Lake. Kingery has spent most of the 2025 season in Triple-A, where he has a .256/.317/.424 slash line with one steal, three triples, five home runs and 21 RBI in 189 plate appearances.

  • Royals' Jonathan India: Absent from Monday's lineup

    India is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

    India will get his first day off since July 30 after slashing just .182/.308/.303 through the Royals' first nine games of August. With India on the bench, Adam Frazier will start at second base and Randal Grichuk will serve as the Royals' designated hitter.
