Lowe (foot) is expected to be reinstated from the 10-day injured list prior to Wednesday's game against the Yankees, MLB.com reports.

Lowe ran in the outfield both Saturday and Sunday, and the tendinitis issue in his ankle and foot appears to have subsided enough for him to return from the IL on his first day of eligibility. Once he's officially reinstated, Lowe should take over as the Rays' primary second baseman, though he'll occasionally get held out of the lineup against left-handed pitching.

Manager Dave Roberts said Monday that Edman tweaked his right ankle while running the bases during Sunday's loss to the Red Sox, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Edman was not in the lineup for Monday's 5-2 win over the Reds, and Roberts said the team is contemplating a potential IL decision, mentioning both Edman and Hyeseong Kim (shoulder) as players who are banged up. Ardaya reported earlier Monday that the Dodgers plan to promote top infield prospect Alex Freeland is expected to join the big club ahead of his MLB debut. Kim started at second base Monday and went 0-for-3 at the plate with two strikeouts.

The Dodgers are expected to select Freeland's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to Tuesday's game against the Reds, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Freeland is one of the Dodgers' top position prospects, and with Enrique Hernandez (elbow) and Max Muncy (knee) currently on the 10-day injured list, he'll give the team another healthy body in the infield. The 23-year-old has slashed .253/.377/.421 with 12 home runs and 17 stolen bases at Triple-A this season.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

With a tough lefty (Framber Valdez) on the hill for Houston, the left-handed-hitting Garcia will get the night off. Paul DeJong will fill in at second base while Garcia sits after starting in each of the last five games.

Rojas will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Reds.

After he reached base in all four of his plate appearances and scored two runs to go with a stolen base in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Boston, Rojas will draw his fourth straight start at his third different position. He'll be filling in at the hot corner Monday for a resting Tommy Edman.

Edman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.

Edman will get a breather for the series opener in Cincinnati after he started in each of the past four games. Miguel Rojas will check in for Edman at third base and will bat eighth.

Kim (shoulder) will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Reds.

Kim was held out of the lineup for Sunday's 4-3 loss to Boston due to a left shoulder injury he sustained a night earlier, but he felt well enough to serve as a pinch runner and defensive replacement late in the contest. He reported to the park Monday no worse for the wear, so Kim will take back a spot in the starting nine as the Dodgers open a three-game set in Cincinnati.

Alexander is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

The right-handed-hitting Alexander started in seven consecutive games from July 13 through last Wednesday, but he'll likely be relegated to a short-side platoon role moving forward. He'll hit the bench Monday for the third time in the last four games, with his lone start during that stretch coming Saturday against Pirates southpaw Andrew Heaney.

Shewmake (undisclosed) has gone 1-for-9 with a walk in three games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

Shewmake missed about a month of action due to the unspecified injury. The 27-year-old infielder possesses a spot on the Yankees' 40-man roster but has spent the entirety of the 2025 season at Triple-A, slashing .228/.317/.364 with four home runs and nine steals in 49 games for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Gonzales went 1-for-4 with two runs scored Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Gonzales led off the eighth inning with a single before coming around to score, also snapping a three-game hitless streak. He has struggled out of the All-Star break and more broadly in July, going only 13-for-70 with one home run, four RBI and seven runs scored across 19 games.
