Polanco went 0-for-3 with a walk in Sunday's 8-1 loss to the Red Sox.

Polanco has produced only one hit over his last four games, but he's accrued four walks over that stretch to get on base at a .313 clip. The switch-hitting infielder's walk rate currently sits at a career-high 16.7 percent, but a career-worst 30.6 percent strikeout rate has played a large part in his average sitting at a paltry .200 through nine games. He'll be back in the lineup for Monday's Patriots' Day game in Boston, batting leadoff while manning second base, according to Dan Hayes of The Athletic.

Arraez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

With a southpaw (Rich Hill) on the mound for Boston, the lefty-hitting Arraez will retreat to the bench after a string of four consecutive starts in which he went 3-for-15 with a double, two walks and two RBI. Gio Urshela will get the nod at third base in the series finale.

Kemp went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Toronto.

Kemp singled off Alek Manoah to lead off the game and swiped second base in the same inning. He reached base twice more in the loss and recorded his first multi-hit game since April 11. The 30-year-old is now slashing .303/.378/.303 through nine games.

Estrada went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-1 win over Cleveland.

Estrada got the Giants on the board with a two-run blast off Aaron Civale in the second inning. He brought home a run on an error in the fourth before knocking an RBI double in the sixth and coming around to score again. The 26-year-old infielder is now slashing .242/.265/.485 through 34 plate appearances.

McNeil went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in a 5-0 win Sunday over the Diamondbacks.

McNeil walked and stole second in the first and added another walk in the fifth. It was the third consecutive game that he hit leadoff, played left field and reached base safely twice. To start the season, the 30-year-old looks more like the player that hit .319/.383/.501 from 2018 to 2020 than the guy that hit .251/.319/.360 in 2021.

India (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Brandon Drury will pick up a third consecutive start at the keystone in place of India, who is day-to-day with the right hamstring injury that he suffered in Thursday's 9-3 loss to Los Angeles. At this stage, the Reds aren't ready to move India to the injured list, though that could change if the reigning National League Rookie of the Year still remains slowed by the hamstring issue heading into Monday's series opener in San Diego.

Miller went 2-for-2 with a double, two walks and a run scored in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Giants.

Miller has forced his way into an everyday role in the lineup with his hot bat. He's seen time at first base and second base while hitting .560 (14-for-25) through eight contests. The infielder has also flexed some power in 2022, posting two home runs and seven doubles while chipping in seven RBI and nine runs scored.

Rosario went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Giants.

Rosario only got aboard on a fielder's choice in the sixth inning. He stole second and got to third, but he was left stranded. The shortstop has done well with the bat so far, slashing .278/.278/.333 with a triple, four RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base in eight games as an everyday presence in the lineup.

Stott is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Stott had started in each of the Phillies' previous five games, making four of those starts at second base while going 2-for-19 at the plate. Primary second baseman Jean Segura (hand) is back in action after a three-game absence, while shortstop Didi Gregorius and third baseman Johan Camargo form the left side of the Phillies' infield. Entering the season, Stott appeared to be battling Alec Bohm for the primary job at the hot corner, but both look to be behind Camargo in the pecking order at the moment.

Gimenez is not in the lineup Sunday against San Francisco.

Gimenez is working in the strong side of a platoon at second base and will head to the bench Sunday with lefty Alex Wood pitching for the Giants. Owen Miller will man the keystone while Bobby Bradley starts at first base.
