Machado went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and another run scored in Friday's loss to the Braves.

Machado got the Padres on the board by smacking a leadoff home run off Dallas Keuchel in the sixth inning. The 27-year-old also singled in the fourth, then again in the eighth to cap off a successful night at the plate. Overall this season, Machado has tallied 21 home runs, 59 RBI and 53 runs scored while batting .271/.342/.500.

Donaldson went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Friday's 5-3 victory over the Padres.

Donaldson got the scoring started with a three-run home run in the first inning off Dinelson Lamet. The 33-year-old then swatted a two-out solo shot off Matt Strahm in the eighth to extend Atlanta's lead to 5-1. It was just the second time this season that Donaldson recorded a multi-homer night. Overall, he's hitting .253/.362/.513 with 20 home runs, 51 runs scored and 49 RBI.

Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Rockies.

Suarez's blast came in the seventh inning, briefly giving the Reds a 2-1 lead. The third baseman is up to 21 homers, 55 RBI and 43 runs scored in 88 games this year. Five of his homers have come in his last eight games.

Senzel (ankle) went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Rockies.

The center fielder had previously exited a game versus the Indians on July 7 with an ankle sprain but appears good to go after the All-Star break. Senzel is hitting .259/.321/.449 with eight homers, 33 runs scored, 27 RBI and eight stolen bases in 56 games.

Davis (illness) is back in the lineup Friday against the Marlins, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Davis battled an illness in the days leading up to the All-Star break but is good to go following the additional four days of rest. He'll bat second and play left field against the Marlins.

Anderson (elbow) is back in the lineup Friday against the Mets, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports.

A bruised elbow kept Anderson out of the lineup for the final five games of the first half, though he appeared off the bench in each one. He'll hit cleanup and play third base Friday.

Senzel (ankle) will start Friday against Colorado.

Senzel left the Reds' final game before the All-Star break with a right ankle sprain, but the issue wasn't expected to be a serious one. He'll bat sixth and play center field Friday in Coors Field.

Donaldson went 2-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Marlins.

The veteran third baseman has three long balls in his last five games, but Sunday's double was his only other hit during that stretch. Donaldson heads into the All-Star break slashing .250/.361/.494 with 18 homers and 45 RBI in 87 games.

Muncy went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Padres.

Muncy got his club on the board in the second inning when he sent a solo shot just over the wall in left-center field. The long ball gives Muncy 22 at the All-Star break, putting him on a pace similar to that of his breakout season a year ago, when he finished with 35.

Escobar went 3-for-4 with a single, double and triple with an RBI in Sunday's victory over the Rockies.

Escobar tripled in the first inning, produced a run-scoring double in the third and scored after singling in the sixth. He had an opportunity to complete the cycle in the seventh inning but flied out to right. In his first full season in Arizona, Escobar has been a bright spot on offense throughout the first half, slashing .296/.353/.543 with 18 homers and 67 runs batted in.
