McMahon went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and two runs scored overall in Wednesday's 11-8 loss to the Giants.

McMahon provided a two-run homer during the fourth inning to give the Rockies a 4-3 lead, but both teams continued the offensive barrage into the late innings. The 24-year-old has come alive in July with a .350/.381/.650 slash line and seven extra-base hits in 12 games.

Senzel (hamstring) thinks he'll be ready to go for Thursday's series opener against the Cardinals, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Senzel exited Wednesday's game against the Cubs with an apparent hamstring injury, though the youngster didn't seem overly concerned about the issue. He should be considered day-to-day ahead of Thursday's series opener.

Farmer will be re-evaluated for a concussion, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

This helps explain why Farmer was removed from Wednesday's lineup. With Curt Casali (knee) and Tucker Barnhart (oblique) also both on the mend, look for Juan Graterol to serve as Cincinnati's primary backstop for the time being.

Segura (heel) is not starting Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Segura is set to miss a second straight game as he continues to nurse a left heel injury that he picked up in Monday's series opener. His absence is considered precautionary, and he'll be available off the bench, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Scott Kingery is once again starting at shortstop in his absence, with Adam Haseley getting the nod in center field.

Farmer is situated on the bench Wednesday against the Cubs, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Farmer was originally tabbed to start before being removed from the lineup in favor of Juan Graterol, who had his contract selected from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday. In 122 plate appearances this season, Farmer is slashing .237/.279/.430 with six home runs and four stolen bases.

Moustakas is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Braves.

Moustakas will take a seat for Wednesday's series finale following a string of 22 consecutive starts. The infielder has collected a hit in all five games since the All-Star break, going 8-for-25 (.320) with three doubles, two RBI and five runs scored over that stretch. Tyler Saladino gets the start at third base in place of Moustakas on Wednesday.

Moustakas went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's victory over the Braves.

Moustakas has at least one hit in every game since the All-Star break, which has helped raise his batting average back up to .267. Moustakas has been in the lineup for every game in July, and he's hit lower than fourth in the order just once all month.

Suarez went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Cubs.

His first-inning shot was part of a three-run frame for the Reds, but the team's offense went cold the rest of the night. Suarez has now gone yard in back-to-back games and three of five since the All-Star break, giving him 23 homers and 58 RBI through 92 contests to go with a .246/.324/.500 slash line.

Vargas went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 9-2 win over the Rangers.

The 28-year-old infielder has been seeing sporadic playing time and hadn't homered in over a month, but Vargas took advantage of his opportunity in Texas. He now sports a .674 OPS with five homers, 20 RBI and 22 runs in 64 games, and he'll face additional competition for at-bats once Wilmer Flores (foot) rejoins the roster.

Rendon went 2-for-4 with two doubles, one run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Orioles. He was also hit by a pitch.

Rendon continued his hit barrage to start the second half and is 7-for-15 with three doubles and three walks through four contests. The 29-year-old has a .312/.397/.614 slash line with 25 doubles, 20 home runs and 64 RBI this season.
