Frazier is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's finale against the Tigers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The lefty-hitting Frazier will take a seat against southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez for the series finale. Ramon Urias will replace Frazier at second base and bat cleanup.

Arroyo went 1-for-2 with a run scored in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Brewers.

Arroyo had not started a game since April 17 due to a hamstring injury, although he did make an appearance Friday. He singled in the fifth inning and came around to score on Yu Chang's home run. He was later pinch hit for by Raimel Tapia against right-handed reliever Peter Strzelecki.

Arraez went 4-for-8 with two walks, a double, a run scored and two RBI across both games of Saturday's doubleheader sweep of the Guardians.

After smacking a two-run single in the matinee to help fuel a 6-1 win, Arraez reached base four times in the nightcap as the Marlins eked out a 3-2 victory. The former Twin continues to rake in his new uniform, and he leads the majors in both batting average (.444) and OBP (.506). Arraez has become something of an unconventional No. 3 hitter for an underpowered Miami lineup, and through 20 games he has only one homer, one steal, eight runs and nine RBI to show for all his trips on the basepaths.

Estrada went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Mets.

Estrada was the only Giant to record multiple hits in the contest. He's picked up three of his five steals over the last five games, and he's hit safely in each of those contests, going 6-for-20 (.300) in that span. The second baseman is up to .329/.378/.500 slash line with three home runs, six RBI and 15 runs scored through 20 games.

Albies went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's loss to the Astros.

Albies brought Atlanta back into the game with a two-run shot to cut the deficit to one in the sixth inning, but that was the end of the team's scoring Saturday. Albies has left the yard three times in his last six games, The second baseman has 18 RBI in 21 games this season.

Hoerner went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Dodgers.

After not hitting a home run over the first 18 games of the season, Hoerner has gone deep in back-to-back matchups versus the Dodgers. The 25-year-old infielder continues to shine as the Cubs' leadoff hitter, and he's totaled 11 RBI, nine stolen bases and 19 runs across 20 games.

Jackson has gone 1-for-7 with a double, a walk and two RBI in two games since Double-A Rocket City reinstated him from the temporary inactive list Tuesday.

Jackson was out of commission for about two weeks while he was on the inactive list, but the missed time shouldn't hinder his development in any significant way.

Rosario is not in the starting lineup for the second game of a doubleheader against the Marlins on Saturday.

Rosario will sit out the second game of the twin bill against the Marlins after going 1-for-4 with a run scored in the 6-1 loss to Miami. Gabriel Arias will be the starting shortstop and hit seventh for the second contest.

Espinal was diagnosed with a right wrist contusion after getting hit by a pitch Saturday against the Yankees and is undergoing further evaluation.

The Gerrit Cole fastball forced Espinal to exit the game, and depending on the results of the tests, it could force him to miss some time. Cavan Biggio would be in line for an expanded role if that happens.

Donovan will hit the bench Saturday against Seattle.

Donovan returned from a left shin abrasion Friday but went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts, dropping his slash line to a modest .254/.311/.388. He homered twice in the opening series but hasn't cleared the fence since. Nolan Gorman will be the second baseman Saturday, with Alec Burleson serving as the designated hitter.
