Lopez isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

The left-handed bat of Lopez will take a seat to begin Tuesday's contest while southpaw Robbie Ray starts on the hill for San Francisco. As a result, Brooks Baldwin will shift to shortstop while Lenyn Sosa starts at the keystone and bats leadoff.

Massey is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Massey will yield to Maikel Garcia at second base Tuesday with the Angels trotting out left-hander Tyler Anderson. Massey is slashing .267/.293/.467 with 10 home runs in 241 plate appearances.

Gonzales (groin) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Gonzales was placed on the 10-day IL on July 28 and has been deemed ready to appear in games. The 25-year-old will likely require multiple games with Indianapolis before being cleared to rejoin the active roster. Once activated, Gonzales will likely compete with Isiah Kiner-Falefa for work at second base.

The Diamondbacks signed Guillorme to a one-year contract Tuesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Per Alvarez-Montes, Guillorme is already with his new team at loanDepot Park in Miami, so it appears he will be active for Tuesday's game versus the Marlins. The Diamondbacks will need to make roster moves in order to add him to their 26-man and 40-man rosters. Guillorme, who was released by the Angels over the weekend, has a paltry .218/.285/.290 slash line in 138 plate appearances between Atlanta and Los Angeles. However, he offers a steady glove and gives Arizona an option at second base while Ketel Marte (ankle) is out.

Gelof went 2-for-3 with a double and a run in a win over the Rays on Monday.

Gelof coaxed his average back over the Mendoza Line with his fourth multi-hit effort of August. The 24-year-old infielder's productive night helped snap a 2-for-18 skid that had encompassed his previous five games, but his two-bagger qualified as only his fifth extra-base hit in the last 20 contests overall (75 plate appearances). An inability to make consistent contact continues to be the biggest albatross on Gelof's numbers, as he sports a massive 37.3 percent strikeout rate over that latter span.

Triolo went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk Monday against the Rangers.

Triolo had been relegated to a bench role since the acquisition and return of Isiah Kiner-Falefa, though he looks poised to take over at third base so long as Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) and Nick Gonzales (groin) are sidelined. Triolo is hitting just .201 for the season with a. 094 ISO, but he does have a home run in two of his last three games.

Semien went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 win over the Pirates.

Semien extended a hit streak to eight games with a third-inning single, and he eventually came around to score on Corey Seager's three-run home run. During the hit streak, Semien is 12-for-38 (.316) with four doubles, a home run, four RBI and six runs scored.

Lux went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 3-0 win over the Mariners.

Lux has gone 10-for-26 (.385) with three homers, five RBI and three doubles over his last seven games. The second baseman's seventh-inning blast broke up a pitching duel between Seattle's Bryan Woo and Los Angeles' Gavin Stone. Lux is up to nine homers, 44 RBI, 43 runs scored, four stolen bases and a .254/.313/.393 slash line through 107 contests this season.

Baldwin went 2-for-2 with two walks, one stolen base and one run scored in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Giants.

Baldwin struggled over the weekend against the Astros, going 0-for-6 over two games. He bounced back well Monday, earning his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 6 while also notching his third steal of the year. The infielder is now at a .222/.271/.356 slash line with two home runs, eight RBI, eight runs scored and six doubles through his first 96 plate appearances in the majors. With the White Sox going nowhere this year, Baldwin figures to get plenty of experience down the stretch.

Estrada (wrist) went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's 5-3 win over the White Sox.

Estrada was part of the Giants' fifth-inning rally, scoring the team's first run on a Curt Casali single. This was Estrada's first game since July 25 after he missed time with a left wrist sprain. He should resume a role as the Giants' primary second baseman, as Casey Schmitt is hitting just .176 in August. Estrada has a poor .216/.249/.351 slash line with nine home runs, 43 RBI, 42 runs scored, one stolen base and 14 doubles over 88 contests this year.
