Arias went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Monday's 7-2 loss to the Dodgers.

Arias, who reached base safely in multiple plate appearances for the time in 11 games, has scuffled of late. He entered Monday with an .086 (3-for-35) average and one RBI over the last 10 games. Arias started the season at second base and moved to shortstop when Brayan Rocchio was sent down to the minors. None of the other middle infielders on the team are doing any better than Arias, so he should retain a near-everyday role.

Tawa started in center field and went 0-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base in Monday's 5-0 win over the Pirates.

Tawa filled his usual role, replacing Alek Thomas whenever the Diamondbacks face a left-hander. He knocked in Arizona's first run with a sacrifice fly in the second inning and then stole his sixth base of the season in the eighth inning. He's stolen four bases over 15 contests since second baseman Ketel Marte returned from an injury and adjusted Tawa's role to a degree. Tawa is batting .227/.297/.423 with five home runs, 13 RBI and 13 runs scored in 34 contests.

LeMahieu is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Angels on Monday.

LeMahieu will begin Monday's game in the dugout after going 3-for-11 with one run and one RBI during the Yankees' weekend series against the Rockies. Jorbit Vivas will shift over to second base while Oswald Peraza gets the start in the hot corner.

Gimenez (quadriceps) could be cleared to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Dunedin on Wednesday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Gimenez has been participating in full baseball activities and resumed running last week, and with his strained right quad apparently responding well, he's on the brink of beginning a rehab assignment. The second baseman likely won't need much more than a couple of rehab games before being reinstated from the 10-day injured list.

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

Edman will get an off day for Monday's series opener against Cleveland. Hyeseong Kim will bat ninth and play second base. Since being activated from the injured list May 18, Edman is 3-for-23 (.130) at the plate.

Cronenworth went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double Sunday in a 5-3 victory versus Atlanta.

Cronenworth came up with a clutch homer in the seventh inning, going deep to right field to break a 3-3 tie. The long ball was his first in his past 13 games and his fourth of the campaign. Since returning May 9 from a month-long stint on the injured list, Cronenworth has slashed .250/.373/.479 with two homers, six RBI, six runs, a stolen base and a 9:12 BB:K.

Turang is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox.

The Brewers are stacking their lineup with eight right-handed bats along with the switch-hitting Isaac Collins to counter Boston lefty Garrett Crochet. Turang, who is batting just .195/.295/.273 so far this month, gives way to Andruw Monasterio at second base.

Albies went 2-for-2 with a walk, two doubles, a run scored and an RBI in Sunday's loss to the Padres.

The second baseman delivered multiple extra-base hits in a contest for the first time this season as he extended his hitting streak to 11 games. Albies is slashing .366/.435/.463 during his surge with four doubles, four RBI and six runs, but he remains mired in a 20-game homer drought. He's had a rough start to the season overall, but the return of Ronald Acuna might help light a fire under Albies and Atlanta's other slumbering hitters.

McLain went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 11-8 loss to the Cubs.

McLain's hit safely in three straight games and stole his 11th base of the season, showing some value above a line of .184/.287/.319. His season-opening slump prompted manager Terry Francona to drop him from second in the batting order to the lower third, from where McLain's hit .238 over the last 12 games. A .217 expected batting average indicates McLain's experienced bad luck along the way.

Chisholm (oblique) could be cleared to begin a minor-league rehab assignment during the upcoming week, MLB.com reports.

Chisholm is nearly four weeks removed from suffering a right oblique strain. If the infielder is able to embark on a rehab stint soon, he could return to the Yankees at the early end of his original 4-to-6-week return estimate. Chisholm began hitting against high-velocity pitching over the weekend, and it's uncertain if he will first get in some live batting-practice reps before starting a rehab assignment. Per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, Chisholm's rehab stint could last just one or two days.
