Senzel will sit Monday against the Pirates.

Senzel sits for the second time in four games, though his absence Monday seems to be a routine one, as there hasn't been any indication that the dizziness which kept him out of action Friday remains a problem. Jesse Winker will slide over to center field in his absence, with Josh VanMeter starting in left.

Anderson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.

The 26-year-old has swooned in July, slashing .200/.246/.431 through 21 games, but Anderson now has 14 homers on the year, extending his career high. Barring an unexpected influx of MLB-ready talent at the trade deadline, he figures to continue drawing regular at-bats for the Marlins in the second half and hitting somewhere in the middle of an underpowered lineup.

Rendon went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and three RBI in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

He didn't flash any power, but Rendon still featured prominently in the Nats' 11-run attack. The third baseman is now slashing .333/.424/.548 through 22 games in July with three homers, 11 runs and 18 RBI.

Senzel went hitless in three at-bats in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Rockies before being ejected in the fourth inning for arguing balls and strikes.

The ejection was the first of Senzel's young MLB career and prevented him from building on his four-game hitting streak. Senzel is unlikely to face any further discipline for the incident and should remain in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates.

Segura was diagnosed with a right shin contusion after leaving Sunday's game against the Braves, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

It initially looked like a knee issue for Segura, who sustained the injury on a tag play at second base on Ronald Acuna's stolen base attempt. The 29-year-old will have Monday's scheduled off day to help his recovery before missing any additional time. According to Breen, manager Gabe Kapler said the team doesn't have any long-term concerns regarding the injury.

Segura was removed from Sunday's game against the Braves with an apparent right knee injury, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Segura suffered the injury while applying a tag on Ronald Acuna -- who also exited the game -- on a stolen-base attempt, and he was unable to put much weight on his right leg when leaving the field. The severity of the injury is currently unclear, but the fact Segura required help walking off the field is a troubling sign.

Muncy went 2-for-4 with a walk, three runs and an RBI in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Nationals.

Muncy made his second consecutive start at second base in the contest and looks on track to see most of his playing time at that position for the foreseeable future with Enrique Hernandez (hand) on track to join Chris Taylor (forearm) on the 10-day injured list. The increased defensive versatility is just another boon to Muncy's fantasy value, which gets a greater bump in leagues that count on-base percentage rather than batting average as a category.

Moustakas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Moustakas had his 12-game hit streak snapped Monday and is 0-for-11 in his last four games, so he'll head to the bench with left-hander Jose Quintana taking the mound for Chicago. Tyler Saladino will start at the hot corner in his absence.

Farmer (concussion) was activated off the 7-day injured list Sunday.

Farmer had a two-game rehab stint in the minors this week to clear the way for his return from the concussion. The 28-year-old should resume his role as a utility player and will serve as the backup catcher to Tucker Barnhart with Curt Casali (knee) still on the shelf.

Riley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

It's the fourth straight contest on the bench for Riley, who has a .169 average with a 41.5 percent strikeout rate in July. The Braves may simply be giving the 22-year-old some extra time off to help him reset, but if replacements Adam Duvall and Ender Inciarte perform well, he may find it difficult to find playing time.
