Rosario went 3-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Athletics.

Rosario led the charge on offense Sunday, extending his hitting streak to seven games. In that span, he's gone 12-for-29 (.414), though he hadn't recorded an extra-base hit in June prior to this contest. The shortstop is up to a solid .260/.294/.324 slash line through 50 games, adding 13 RBI and 25 runs scored, but he remains in search of his first home run. He's added five stolen bases, seven doubles and three triples.

Clement has started four of the Guardians' 11 games in June.

He's started to mix into the lineup with a little more frequency, but Clement remains without a clear path to at-bats. He's gone 2-for-14 with three strikeouts and a walk through five contests in June, dropping his season slash line to .214/.275/.250 in 92 plate appearances.

Altuve went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 9-4 win over the Marlins.

Altuve came up a triple shy of the cycle Sunday. He doubled and scored in the first inning before adding a three-run blast in the eighth. The second baseman is 11-for-32 (.344) in his last seven games, which includes three multi-hit efforts, two homers and four doubles. For the season, he's posted a .279/.348/.536 slash line, 12 long balls, 23 RBI, 28 runs scored, three stolen bases and 10 doubles through 45 contests as the Astros' regular leadoff hitter.

Urias left Sunday's game against the Nationals with right hamstring tightness, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Urias' exit was reportedly precautionary, so it seems as though he'll be considered day-to-day for now. The Brewers have an off day Monday, so it's possible he returns Tuesday against the Mets without missing a start.

Rengifo will sit Sunday against the Mets, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

Rengifo started at second base in his return from paternity leave Saturday, going 1-for-4 with a triple. Matt Duffy will start at the keystone Sunday.

Lux will sit Sunday against San Francisco, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Lux has had far more than a platoon role this season, though when he does sit, it usually comes against a left-hander. He'll rest here against a particularly difficult one in Carlos Rodon, with Hanser Alberto taking over at the keystone.

Torres is "under the weather" but available off the bench Sunday against the Cubs, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

Torres was scratched from Sunday's lineup but it sounds like he could appear off the bench or at least be ready to return to the lineup after Monday's off day. Matt Carpenter replaced him in the lineup.

Torres was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Cubs.

Jose Trevino was also scratched from the lineup, so perhaps there is a COVID-19 outbreak or some other illness making its way through the clubhouse. Matt Carpenter enters the lineup at third base with DJ LeMahieu sliding to second base.

Lopez is not in Sunday's lineup against the Orioles.

Lopez will sit for the second time this weekend, and he could continue to lose out on playing time, given that he is 2-for-25 over his last nine games. Carlos Santana slots in at first base with Hunter Dozier moving to the outfield and Whit Merrifield starting at the keystone.

Torres went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in an 8-0 win over the Cubs on Saturday.

Torres hit one of six Yankees solo blasts off rookie hurler Matt Swarmer, going deep in the fourth inning. It was Torres' second straight game with with a homer and marked his seventh long ball over his past 15 contests. All of his home runs during that span have been solo shots.
