Arroyo went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Guardians.

Arroyo, who battled a hamstring injury the last week, made a second consecutive start at shortstop for the injured Enrique Hernandez (ankle) and finished off a productive weekend. He went 5-for-7 with two walks, four RBI and three runs scored in wins Saturday and Sunday. Hernandez could return Monday, per Christopher Smith of MassLive.com. If so, Arroyo could shift back to second base.

Semien went 0-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 15-2 win over the Yankees.

Semien went hitless in a game which the Rangers piled on 15 runs on 11 hits and four home runs but did notch his fourth steal of the season after walking in the second inning. Semien still leads the team with 30 hits on the year and leads all of baseball with 25 runs scored. He's now slashing .268/.346/.455 with five homers, 23 RBI and a 14:22 BB:K over 127 plate appearances.

Frazier went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Tigers.

Frazier went yard off starter Spencer Turnbull in the fourth inning. This was Frazier's first extra-base hit since his last homer back on April 19 versus the Nationals. With Joey Ortiz back at Triple-A Norfolk and Austin Hays recovered from a hand injury, Frazier should resume his strong-side platoon role at second base. He's slashing .220/.297/.366 with three homers, 10 RBI, 16 runs scored and four stolen bases through 91 plate appearances.

Villar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

Villar is sitting against a right-handed starting pitcher (Yu Darvish) for the second straight day and appears to have ceded primary duties at third base to J.D. Davis. The righty-hitting Villar offers the ability to play three infield positions and should still have a path to steady playing time versus left-handed pitching.

Dubon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Dubon is 0-for-8 with two strikeouts since his 20-game hit streak came to an end Friday, so Sunday is a well-deserved day off. Rylan Bannon will take over at the keystone and bat eighth in the series finale versus Philadephia.

Urias (hamstring) progressed to running at 50 percent Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The 25-year-old landed on the shelf April 1 after he suffered a major hamstring strain Opening Day, and he should be nearing the halfway point in his recovery process. Urias will be eligible to be reinstated from the 60-day IL on May 31, though he clearly still has significant work to do in his rehab program.

Kemp is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

The 31-year-old was on the bench Saturday with righty Hunter Greene on the mound for Cincinnati, and the second baseman is sitting again Sunday against lefty Nick Lodolo. Kemp has gone 4-for-40 across his past 12 contests, and his playing time could dwindle further without a turnaround soon. Jordan Diaz will man the keystone in his place Sunday.

Rojas is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Lefty Austin Gomber will be on the mound Sunday for Colorado, so Rojas finds himself on the bench for the third time in Arizona's past four games. Evan Longoria will receive another start at the hot corner, batting fifth.

Kim is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Kim appears to be receiving some routine maintenance Sunday after he had started in each of the Padres' last 12 games while batting just .179 with no extra-base hits but chipping in four stolen bases. Jake Cronenworth will shift over from first base to replace Kim at the keystone.

Trejo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Trejo started the past four games at second base and will take a seat after he went 3-for-18 with two RBI, a run and a stolen base. Harold Castro will man the keystone in Sunday's series finale.
