  • Jean Segura 3B | CLE

    Phillies' Jean Segura: Set for rehab assignment

    Segura (quadriceps) will embark on a rehab assignment this week, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    It's not clear exactly when the assignment will begin or how long it will last, but Segura should be back from his strained right quadriceps before too long. He was hitting .333/.359/.450 through 17 games prior to the injury.

  • J.D. Davis 1B | LAA

    Mets' J.D. Davis: Placed on injured list

    Davis (hand) landed on the 10-day injured list Monday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

    Davis left Saturday's game against the Phillies with a sprained left hand, and the issue is evidently serious enough to sideline him for at least 10 days. Jonathan Villar will step into the lineup in his absence, batting seventh and playing third base Monday against the Cardinals. Trevor Hildenberger was recalled in a corresponding move.

  • Jace Peterson SS | ARI

    Brewers' Jace Peterson: Kicks off rehab assignment

    Peterson (thumb) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

    Peterson has been on the shelf for just over the minimum 10 days, so he likely won't need much time to ramp up in the minors before being ready to return from the injured list. The 30-year-old will likely serve as Milwaukee's top utility man once he's reinstated.

  • Mike Moustakas 3B | CHW

    Reds' Mike Moustakas: Two extra-base knocks in win

    Moustakas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, and an additional RBI in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Cubs in 10 innings.

    Moustakas supplied one of five Reds long balls on the day and reached base three times in total after also being struck by a pitch. The 32-year-old improved his slash line to .250/.353/.500 after the big day, and he should continue to pile up counting stats while occupying a spot in the heart of a Reds lineup that has been one of the majors' stronger units this season.

  • Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN

    Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Return date remains uncertain

    The Pirates aren't putting a timeline for return with Hayes (wrist, hand), though he will travel with the team during its seven-day road trip that starts Monday, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

    General manager Ben Cherington said Sunday that Hayes is dealing with discomfort in both his lower hand and wrist -- previously it was thought that only his wrist was hurt. Cherington mentioned Hayes will continue to receive "conservative care," though he hit soft-toss over the weekend. "As much as we want, nobody wants to be out there more than he does," the general manager said of Hayes. "I know he's champing at the bit but we've got to do it right. We're talking about a part of the body that's really important for a hitter."

  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | CIN

    Reds' Eugenio Suarez: Launches fifth homer

    Suarez went 3-for-5 with a homer and three RBI in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Cubs.

    Suarez knocked his fifth home run of the year with a solo shot in the third inning before singling in a pair of runs in the sixth. The 29-year-old entered Sunday in a 1-for-31 slump over his last eight games and hadn't produced a multi-hit performance since April 10. He's up to 12 RBI and nine extra-base hits through 101 at-bats this season.

  • Austin Riley 3B | ATL

    Braves' Austin Riley: Perfect day at plate

    Riley went 4-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 7-2 loss to Toronto.

    The Braves offense couldn't get much going Sunday, but Riley managed to knock four singles during the loss. It was his third multi-hit game over his last five appearances and second time with four hits during that span. The 24-year-old is slashing .329/.431/.459 with16 runs scored through 102 plate appearances.

  • J.D. Davis 1B | LAA

    Mets' J.D. Davis: Not starting Sunday

    Davis (hand) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Phillies, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    The 28-year-old suffered a left hand sprain during Saturday's game and will be sidelined for at least one contest. According to Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record, Davis doesn't believe it's a serious injury but isn't sure if a stay on the injured list will be necessary. Jonathan Villar will start at third base for the Mets in his absence Sunday.

  • Brian Anderson RF | ATL

    Marlins' Brian Anderson: Expected back Tuesday

    Manager Don Mattingly expects Anderson (oblique) to return from the 10-day injured list Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

    The 27-year-old was eligible to be activated during the weekend series against the Nationals, but he'll end up spending a little more than the 10-day minimum on the shelf. Anderson was off to a slow start before the injury with a .200/.262/.300 slash line, one home run, five RBI and three runs in 17 games.

  • Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN

    Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Taking soft toss

    Hayes (wrist) took swings in soft toss this weekend, Jake Crouse of MLB.com reports.

    The 24-year-old has been throwing and running and was able to get a bat in his hands this weekend. It's only some light swinging, but it's significant step in his return from the wrist injury. Hayes will need to progress to facing live pitching before having a chance of returning from the injured list.
