McMahon isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

McMahon nearly hit for the cycle Tuesday when he went 3-for-3 with a home run, a triple, four RBI and two runs in the win over San Diego, but he'll get a breather in the series finale. Joshua Fuentes will take over at third base and bat sixth.

Arenado is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

According to Jones, manager Mike Shildt indicated that Arenado is receiving a routine breather while the Cardinals and Marlins conclude their series with a day game after a night game. Matt Carpenter will fill in at third base for Arenado, who has gone 0-for-11 over the past three games to drop his season average to .273.

Manager Joe Girardi said after Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Dodgers that Segura was removed in the ninth inning due to a left groin strain, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports. "I'm not so confident that's day to day," Girardi said, regarding Segura's injury.

Beyond ruling Segura out for Wednesday's series finale, Girardi didn't explicitly say that the infielder would miss additional time, but the manager's comments would seemingly point to Segura landing on the 10-day injured list. Segura went 1-for-5 in Tuesday's contest before exiting when he came up limping down the baseline while attempting to beat out a throw after grounding out to first base. The lower-body injury is Segura's second of the season, as the 31-year-old previously missed 15 games in late April and early May with a quadriceps strain. The Phillies could turn to Brad Miller, Luke Williams or Triple-A Lehigh Valley infielder Nick Maton to pick up regular starts at second base if Segura moves to the IL once again.

Suarez isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Brewers, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Suarez will get a rare day off after he went 2-for-12 with a home run, five RBI and two runs across the last three games. Mike Freeman will take over at third base and bat eighth.

McMahon went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run, a triple, three RBI and two runs in Tuesday's win over the Padres.

McMahon took Yu Darvish deep in the sixth inning, but he also delivered an RBI triple in the fourth and a sac fly in the bottom of the seventh. The second baseman has hit safely in six of his last seven contests and has gone yard three times over his last five games. McMahon has been a bright spot for the Rockies offensively this season, hitting .261 with 16 homers and 43 RBI thus far.

Wisdom, who entered the game when Kris Bryant (hand) left in the first inning, went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Mets.

Bryant took a pitch off his right hand in his first plate appearance and left the game, though X-rays later came back negative and he was diagnosed with a contusion. Wisdom has been a pleasant surprise for the Cubs and could see an uptick in playing time if Bryant misses a few games to nurse his injury, but it doesn't seem like a serious issue, so the former should remain in a reserve role moving forward.

Sosa started at second base in Monday's win over the Marlins, going 2-for-4 with an RBI single.

Sosa was in the starting nine for the first time since Paul DeJong's return from the injured list, and he commemorated the occasion by churning out his second multi-hit effort in his last three starts. The versatile 25-year-old doesn't offer much pop, but he does now have a solid .268 average and elite .360 on-base percentage across 111 plate appearances.

Vosler went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 5-2 win over Arizona.

The 27-year-old was intentionally walked with two outs in the fifth inning, then stole second base. He added a double in the second. Vosler is slashing only .195/.250/.488, but he's provided three home runs, four RBI, seven runs scored and two stolen bases across 44 plate appearances. He's likely to split time with Wilmer Flores at third base while Evan Longoria (shoulder) is on the mend.

Suarez will move back to shortstop when Mike Moustakas (heel) returns from the IL later this week, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Suarez has been back at third base while Moustakas has been out, and that makes the Reds' infield defense better, but the team wants to keep Jonathan India's bat in the lineup, so Suarez will move back to shortstop.

Wisdom went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Mets.

The 29-year-old continues to demonstrate that the power he showed in the minors can play in the majors as well. Wisdom has gone yard nine times in 20 games since being called up in late May, although his overall .333/.390/.870 slash line is unsustainable, considering his 35.6 percent strikeout rate and .375 BABIP.
