The Brewers reinstated Hamilton (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Friday, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.

Before being placed on the injured list July 7, the 28-year-old had slashed .240/.317/.333 with three homers and 15 RBI in 237 plate appearances. Milwaukee designated Braden Shewmake for assignment to make room for Hamilton on the active roster.

Urias (elbows) has been sent to Triple-A Memphis and will begin a rehab assignment Saturday, Amber Winkler of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Urias has been limited to only 25 games this season due to tennis elbow in both arms, an issue he's dealt with dating back to spring training. He's been out since early May and had to be pulled off his initial rehab assignment in early June following a setback. Given the length of his absence, Urias' rehab stint might last at least a couple weeks.

Muncy went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run against the Phillies in Wednesday's 9-5 victory.

Muncy's sixth-inning, two-run long ball traveled an estimated 415 feet and snapped a 3-3 tie. The veteran slugger has gone deep in back-to-back contests and has been red hot to begin the second half, slashing .300/.391/.850 with three home runs, seven RBI and four runs through six games. He is up to 20 homers on the campaign, fifth most among MLB third basemen.

Arenado isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cardinals.

Arenado will catch a breather after going 1-for-1 with a solo homer, three walks and three runs scored during Wednesday's win against the Athletics. Ildemaro Vargas will fill in as Arizona's third baseman and bat eighth.

The Cubs are slated to promote Triantos from Triple-A Iowa, Geoff Pontes of Baseball America reports.

Triantos saw his prospect stock tumble following a disappointing 2025 campaign, but he's bounced back in 2026 with a .306/.344/.440 batting line, seven home runs, 18 stolen bases and a 20:44 BB:K. The 23-year-old has primarily played second and third base this season but has also made starts at all three outfield spots. The path to regular playing time for Triantos doesn't seem to be there, but the right-handed hitter could see spot starts at a variety of positions.

Gonzales went 4-for-8 with a solo home run and two additional runs scored across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader split with the Yankees.

The infielder took Gerrit Cole deep in the matinee before accounting for two of the Pirates' three hits in the nightcap. Gonzales has six homers on the season, and three of them have come in July as he's compiled a dazzling .397/.461/.618 slash line through 17 games on the month with six doubles, 11 RBI and 14 runs.

Bohm went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 9-5 loss to the Dodgers.

Bohm opened the scoring with a two-run blast in the first inning before driving in a run on a single in the eighth. It was the 29-year-old's fourth multi-hit effort in six games since returning from the All-Star break, a stretch that includes three extra-base hits and six RBI. On the season, he's slashing .225/.283/.374 with 13 homers, 53 RBI, 33 runs scored and a steal across 399 plate appearances.

Arenado went 1-for-1 with a solo home run, three walks and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 15-5 win over the Athletics.

Arenado was a thorn in the Athletics' side all game, highlighted by a solo blast in the fourth inning. The veteran has opened the second half on a tear, hitting safely in five of six games with four extra-base hits and six RBI since returning from the All-Star break. On the year, he's slashing .245/.323/.430 with 14 homers, 46 RBI, 49 runs scored and three steals across 372 plate appearances.

Mead is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Colorado.

Mead picked up three hits in Monday's win over the Rockies but then went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts Tuesday. Jorbit Vivas will cover third base while Mead rests in the series finale.

Baty will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

With Juan Soto and Luis Robert resting for the series finale in Milwaukee, Baty will pick up a start in the outfield alongside A.J. Ewing and Carson Benge. Robert's return from the IL earlier this week looks like it could result in Baty fading into more of a part-time role, as the Mets already sent the 26-year-old to the bench against right-hander Brandon Sproat during Tuesday's 4-0 win. Baty has produced a palatable .273/.293/.436 slash line thus far in July, but he's still holding down an underwhelming .614 OPS over 340 plate appearances on the season.
