McMahon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and a hit-by-pitch in the loss to the Giants on Monday.

The 27-year-old opened up the scoring for his team in this one with a solo blast off of Kevin Gausman in the second inning. After posting a 10-game hitting streak in early August, McMahon has struggled to a .192 batting average with five total extra-base hits in 73 at-bats over 21 games. On the season, he has still posted a career-high .255 batting average while hitting 21 home runs.

Segura went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, two runs scored and a walk in Monday's 12-0 victory over Milwaukee.

Segura scored a run in the first inning on Bryce Harper's two-run homer. He later crushed a grand slam as part of a seven-run eighth inning. The veteran infielder has produced multiple hits in six of his last 11 games, raising his season slash line to .295/.358/.441 with 11 long balls and 49 RBI.

Hayes went 3-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 6-3 win over the Tigers.

Hayes ripped three singles in the victory, including a two-run base knock in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old entered Monday's game in a 12-for-58 (.207) skid in 16 games since his last multi-hit performance on Aug 14. He improved his season slash line to .252/.321/.376 with 30 RBI through 321 plate appearances.

Sosa went 1-for-3 with an RBI sacrifice fly, a walk and a stolen base in a loss to the Brewers on Sunday.

Sosa continues to validate manager Mike Shildt's decision to afford him the bulk of playing time at shortstop, with Sunday's production pushing his slash line over the last nine games to an outstanding .387/.432/.742 (37 plate appearances). Sosa has impressively provided a bit of everything in that sample, lacing a double, two triples, two home runs, 10 RBI, three walks and nine runs in addition to Sunday's steal, his fourth of the campaign.

Arenado isn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Arenado will get a breather after he went 5-for-15 with three homers, four runs, four RBI and three strikeouts across the last four games. Matt Carpenter will start at the hot corner and bat fifth.

Moustakas isn't starting Monday's game against the Cubs, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Moustakas will be on the bench for the fourth time in the last five games since left-hander Justin Steele is starting for the Cubs. Eugenio Suarez will start at the hot corner and bat fourth.

Riley went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer, a walk and three RBI in Sunday's 9-2 win over Colorado.

Riley drew a walk his first time up and then plated his first run in the third on a sacrifice fly. He later blasted a two-run homer in the seventh to put Atlanta up 9-1. The 24-year-old is putting up some impressive numbers during his first full MLB season, as he's slashing .305/.377/.539 with 29 long balls, 87 RBI, 75 runs scored and 50:133 BB:K over 557 plate appearances.

Duffy went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, a solo home run and a steal in Sunday's 11-8 win over the Pirates.

Duffy hit both home runs in consecutive innings. He led off the second with a solo shot and then took Wil Crowe deep for a second time in the third for a grand slam. The 30-year-old later notched his third hit of the day in the eighth and stole second for his fifth steal of the year. Duffy now has multi-hit efforts in three of his last four games and is slashing .269/.346/.337 with three homers, 20 RBI, 34 runs scored and 20:48 BB:K over 234 plate appearances.

Hayes went 1-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 11-8 loss to the Cubs.

He batted leadoff for the first time in his career. Hayes had a chance to break a 7-7 tie with the bases loaded in the seventh inning but popped out. Still, it was good to see the third baseman back after missing five games with a bruised right hand caused by slamming his batting helmet in disgust.

Longoria isn't starting Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Longoria returned to the lineup Saturday and went 1-for-4 with a strikeout. Kris Bryant will shift to third base while Steven Duggar enters the lineup in center field.
