Rosario (ankle) resumed his rehab assignment at Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday and went 1-for-3 with a home run, a walk and two additional RBI while playing nine innings at second base in a 5-2 win over Round Rock.

Rosario has been stuck on the Padres' 60-day injured list since Feb. 16 after he underwent surgery in the offseason to address a fractured ankle. He began a rehab assignment June 6 at Triple-A, then was shut down for two weeks before returning to action June 22. Rosario had his rehab assignment paused again shortly before the All-Star break, but he resumed playing in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League last week before reporting back to El Paso. The Padres likely want the 23-year-old to play on an everyday basis, so once he's deemed ready to return from the 60-day IL, he could be optioned to Triple-A.

Davis went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Athletics.

Davis opened the scoring with his first-inning blast, snapping an 0-for-13 skid at the plate. The corner infielder has struck out at a 33.8 percent rate in July, noticeably higher than his 28.6 percent mark for the season. He's launched 13 homers -- his most in four years -- with 51 RBI, 41 runs scored, a stolen base and a .259/.341/.432 slash line through 95 contests overall.

McMahon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to Washington.

McMahon had Jake Irvin figured out early, notching a single in his first at-bat against the right-hander before taking him deep in his second trip to the plate to put the Rockies up 2-0. The third baseman came into the contest batting just .190 in July but he's now recorded multiple hits in three of his last four games. With Wednesday's long ball he's now hit exactly four home runs in each month this season.

Baty is not in the lineup Wednesday versus the Yankees.

Mark Vientos will start at third base and bat second as the Mets take on southpaw Carlos Rodon. The left-handed-hitting Baty has slashed just .175/.203/.298 in 61 plate appearances versus lefties this year.

Machado went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in a 5-1 win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

Machado hit one of three homers for the Padres in the contest, producing the team's first run with a solo shot in the second inning. It was the continuance of a July power surge for the third baseman, who has gone deep 11 times through 20 games this month. That has pushed him to 20 long balls and 58 RBI to go along with three steals, 50 runs and a .257/.316/.472 slash line on the campaign.

Arenado is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Arizona.

Arenado gets a rare day off after he had an eight-game hitting streak snapped Tuesday. Taylor Motter will get the start at third base in place of Arenado.

Toro was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Toro will return to the big leagues after being sent down June 14, having produced a .337 average with 19 extra-base hits, including five homers, over 101 at-bats in 27 games with Nashville since his demotion. The 26-year-old will replace Jesse Winker (back) on the major-league roster after Winker was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Segura is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Segura will get a second straight Wednesday off while Jon Berti checks in for him at third base. While starting each of the Marlins' last four games, Segura went 3-for-15 with no runs or RBI.

Hayes (back) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Hayes has been on the injured list since July 7 with lower back discomfort, and he'll now begin the final step before rejoining the Pirates' lineup. The team hasn't indicated how long it plans on keeping Hayes in the minors, but it's certainly possible he returns before the end of July.

Anderson (back) hit in the cage Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The next step is on-field batting practice, which Anderson should advance to on the Brewers' upcoming road trip, which begins this Friday. He was placed on the injured list just after the All-Star break because of lingering back discomfort.
