Castro is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

Castro will be on the bench for the second straight game while the Rockies oppose another southpaw (Patrick Corbin). Platoon mate Alan Trejo will fill in for Castro at second base.

Frazier is not in the starting lineup Monday against the Phillies.

Frazier will head to the bench as the Orioles face off with left-hander Cristopher Sanchez. Jordan Westburg will take over at second base and bat fifth in the series opener with Philadelphia.

Massey is out of the lineup for Monday's contest in Cleveland.

The 25-year-old will begin this one on the bench as left-handed Logan Allen toes the rubber for the Guardians. Massey has actually fared better against lefties this season with a .673 OPS versus a .593 OPS against righties, but opportunities against southpaws have been few and far between.

Gimenez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 8-5 extra-inning loss to the Phillies.

Gimenez took Aaron Nola deep in the second inning. While Gimenez has hit two homers over eight games since the All-Star break, he's batting just .200 (6-for-30) in that span. The second baseman has warmed up over the last couple of months, but he's still at a .244/.314/.390 slash line over 94 contests this season. He's added nine homers, 15 stolen bases, 38 RBI and 43 runs scored.

Wisely is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

The lefty-hitting Wisely will see his streak of nine consecutive starts at the keystone come to an end while David Villar mans second base in his stead as the Giants face off against southpaw Tarik Skubal. At least until Brandon Crawford (knee) returns from the injured list, Wisely should have a clear path to everyday playing time versus right-handers, and he was even included in the lineup in Sunday's 6-1 loss against the Nationals and southpaw MacKenzie Gore.

Massey went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Yankees.

Massey now has three homers in his last three games after going 24 contests without a long ball. Even with his recent power surge, it's been a tough month at the plate for the 25-year-old Massey -- he's gone 9-for-46 with a .669 OPS in 14 games since the start of July. Overall, the 25-year-old second baseman is slashing .213/.267/.343 with seven homers, 29 RBI, 19 runs scored and three steals across 251 plate appearances this season.

Arraez went 3-for-4 with one double, two RBI and one run scored in Sunday's victory over Colorado.

Arraez notched his second consecutive multi-hit effort Sunday, plating Nick Fortes with an RBI double in the sixth and then notching a walk-off single in the bottom of the 10th to give Miami the win. Over his last eight appearances, Arraez is batting .371 with seven RBI and two runs scored.

Stott went 0-for-1 with four walks, a run scored and three steals in Sunday's win over the Guardians.

Stott flew around the basepaths Sunday, nabbing a single-game career-high in walks while tying his career-best in stolen bases. Through 93 games, Stott is slashing .304/.348/.436 with nine home runs and 19 steals and is striking out at a 15.6 percent clip.

Marte went 2-for-2 with three walks and a run scored in Sunday's 7-3 loss to Cincinnati.

Marte is rolling with hits in four straight games. The second baseman is 7-for-14 with four walks, two doubles, two home runs, five RBI and three runs scored during that stretch and now has an .887 OPS through 93 games this season.

Remillard went 2-for-5 with a solo homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's loss to the Twins.

Remillard cranked his first big-league home run with a blast to left center in the third and then followed up with an RBI single in the fifth. It was his first RBI since July 7 and his fourth multi-hit game this month. Though it appears the 29-year-old has lost out on an everyday spot, he's provided a nice spark when in the lineup, slashing .309/.371/.407 with six extra-base hits, 13 RBI, 10 runs and a 7:26 BB:K in 92 plate appearances. It shouldn't be expected he'll keep those numbers up though, considering he hit .244/.340/.376 over three seasons at Triple-A.
