The Astros announced Monday that Rodgers (concussion/nose) has resumed light jogging and throwing, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Rodgers remains in concussion protocol after he was involved in an on-field collision during a rehab game with Triple-A Sugar Land on July 18, but he appears to have taken some steps forward in his recovery from the head injury. The veteran infielder, who also suffered a nasal fracture in the collision, is without a timeline to return from the 60-day injured list. If Rodgers make it back on the field this season, he likely won't be in line for everyday playing time with Houston.

Sosa went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and three runs scored in Monday's 13-3 win over the Orioles.

Sosa singled and scored on a pair of Kyle Schwarber homers before adding his own 429-foot blast in the ninth inning. The 29-year-old has drawn eight starts and appeared in 11 games at second and third base since Alec Bohm (rib) landed on the injured list July 19, going 8-for-30 with two home runs, five RBI, five runs scored and a stolen base in that span. On the season, he's slashing .273/.313/.430 with five long balls, 26 RBI, 20 runs scored and one steal across 178 plate appearances.

Vargas (foot) will participate in live batting practice Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Skipper Torey Lovullo stated Monday that Vargas has already seen live at-bats in a minor-league game, and the goal is to get him more live at-bats later in the week if Tuesday's live BP session goes well. The 24-year-old has been sidelined since June 25 due to a fractured fifth metatarsal in his right foot and will likely need to get through a few more game before being activated.

Lawlar (hamstring) will take live batting practice Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Lawlar has been sidelined since suffering a Grade 1 hamstring strain in late June, but he'll take a major step in his recovery Tuesday. Manager Torey Lovullo said Monday that the plan would be to then have Lawlar get into some sort of game situation Thursday. Once healthy, the 23-year-old won't likely have to wait long to join the major-league roster after Arizona dealt starting third baseman Eugenio Suarez to the Mariners ahead of the trade deadline last week.

Edman (ankle) was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Dodgers on Monday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Edman will head to the IL, as expected, after suffering a sprained right ankle during Sunday's 3-0 win over the Rays. The had previously tweaked his ankle last week, but this time around it was more serious. He'll be forced to miss at least 10 days, and in a corresponding move, Max Muncy (knee) was activated from the 10-day IL on Monday.

Gimenez (ankle) will begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Gimenez is working through a left ankle sprain that led to him being placed on the 10-day injured list in early July. He has been given the green light to embark on a rehab assignment and could rejoin the Blue Jays' 26-man roster over the coming days barring any setbacks. Gimenez is slashing .218/.300/.322 with 10 steals, five homers and 23 RBI over 238 plate appearances this season.

Lowe is absent from the lineup for Monday's game versus the Angels.

The left-handed-hitting Lowe will begin Monday's festivities on the bench as the Angels send southpaw Yusei Kikuchi to the bump. Ha-Seong Kim is playing second base and batting second for the Rays on Monday.

Gorman is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

Gorman was a late insertion into the Cardinals' lineup Sunday in San Diego in place of Brendan Donovan (personal), marking his third straight start at the hot corner since Nolan Arenado (shoulder) was shelved. Thomas Saggese will start at third base and bat seventh Monday.

Donovan (personal) will start at second base and bat leadoff in Monday's game versus the Dodgers.

Donovan had to be scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Padres due to a family emergency, but he has rejoined the Cardinals and is ready to go for Monday's series opener in Los Angeles. The All-Star has been scuffling at the plate lately, going 2-for-26 over his last 30 plate appearances.

Frazier will start at designated hitter and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Red Sox.

Frazier will remain in the lineup for a seventh straight game after going 5-for-23 with a home run, a stolen base, four runs and three RBI. He's picked up starts at five different positions -- second base, third base, left field right field and now DH -- and should remain a fixture in the lineup against right-handed pitching, at least until Jac Caglianone (hamstring) returns from the injured list.
