Drury (hand) will receive a follow-up CT scan when the Blue Jays return to Toronto at the beginning of September, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports.

Drury received follow-up imaging on his fractured hand over the weekend, and doctors were apparently pleased with his progress. He's expected to stick in a removable splint until he's reevaluated sometime next week.

Marte is not in the lineup Monday against the Giants.

Marte will give way to Daniel Descalso at the keystone for Monday's series opener after starting all three games against the Mariners over the weekend, going 2-for-10 with a double and two walks in those appearances.

Solarte (oblique) has begun a hitting and throwing progression, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports.

Solarte continues to make solid progress as he works his way back from a right oblique injury. He's reported no issues thus far in his rehab and figures to keep ramping up his baseball activities in the coming days before eventually being cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment.

McNeil (quad) is available off the bench Monday and is expected to return to the lineup Tuesday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

McNeil left Sunday's game against the Nationals with a tight right quad and isn't starting Monday, but the injury is evidently not a serious one. That's good news for the Mets, as the second baseman is riding an 11-game hitting streak, hitting .475 over that stretch.

McNeil (quad) is not in the lineup Monday against the Cubs.

McNeil was pulled from Sunday's 15-0 loss to the Nationals with right quad tightness and will be given the day off while he recovers from the issue. After his removal, McNeil said the injury was "nothing too major," so the rookie is optimistic he'll avoid the disabled list, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Jose Reyes will fill in at second base Monday while McNeil rests.

Frazier hit his second homer in as many games Sunday, going 2-for-4 with two RBI against the Brewers.

General manager Neal Huntington said during his Sunday radio show that Frazier could see more playing time with Josh Harrison (hamstring) unlikely to return to full health before season's end. Since his recall in late July, Frazier is slashing .354/.400/.634 with 11 doubles, four homers and 17 RBI in 90 plate appearances. He's also making a case for the starting job at second base next year, though his defense remains a concern.

Andrus went 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Giants.

Andrus' third-inning double plated Rougned Odor, tying the game at one apiece, but Texas could muster little else against former Ranger Derek Holland. For Andrus, the hit snapped an 0-for-11 run, which is the most recent phase of a longer slump. Since his four-hit performance against the Yankees on Aug. 10, the shortstop is hitting .172 (10-for-58) with three RBI over 13 games.

Rodriguez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the White Sox.

Rodriguez now has home runs in each of his last two starts, which are also the first two homers of his MLB career. Despite the recent success, the 26-year-old is still batting just .211 with a .546 OPS, and he figures to be a reserve player the rest of the season.

Polanco departed Sunday's game against the Athletics in the bottom of the fifth inning with leg cramps and tightness, LaVelle E. Neal III of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

The shortstop was at least productive prior to his exit, finishing 2-for-3 at the plate before giving way to Ehire Adrianza. Polanco will benefit from a full day of rest with the Twins off the schedule Monday before the team kicks off a three-game set in Cleveland on Tuesday.

McNeil exited Sunday's game in the sixth inning due to right quadriceps tightness, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

This comes at an extremely unfortunate time for the 26-year-old, as he was hitting .500 (14-for-28) over the seven games prior to Sunday's contest. It's unclear how severe the injury is, so consider McNeil day-to-day for the time being. Jose Reyes replaced him Sunday and figures to see an uptick in playing time if McNeil has to miss more than a game or two.
