Longoria went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates.

The former Ray continues to supply solid right-handed power to the Giants' lineup. Longoria now has eight homers and 21 RBI through 38 games, although his .246/.272/.500 slash line remains disappointing.

Senzel (vertigo) was placed on the 7-day disabled list at Triple-A Louisville, David Jablonski of the Dayton Daily News reports. "We are being very cautious with Nick. He's had this before. We feel we've got a good treatment plan in place. We do think it's realistic to expect to see him back on the field in fairly short order," general manager Dick Williams said.

The Reds plan to activate Senzel when he is symptom free, and based on Williams' comments, it sounds like that could be later in May. There is no denying his talent when he is on the field, and the only knock against him as a long-term fantasy asset is that he has now missed time with vertigo twice in less than a 10-month span (he was shut down in late August last year with the same ailment). The Reds' top prospect, who has been a third baseman for most of his pro career, was moved to second base this year, as he is blocked by Eugenio Suarez at the hot corner in Cincinnati. Senzel was hitting .271/.351/.459 with three home runs and three steals in 97 plate appearances prior to exiting the game May 3 with dizziness. Once healthy, he could earn a promotion to the majors this summer, but his health issues cloud his timetable for advancement.

Kieboom went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, five RBI and a walk in Thursday's game for High-A Potomac.

He got off to a slow start to the season, but is hitting .350 with two home runs and a 4:9 K:BB over his last 40 at-bats, which has upped his season line to .243/.360/.412. Any opportunity to buy low has probably passed at this point, as Kieboom appears to be rounding into form.

Rendon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Padres.

His fourth-inning blast to straightaway center field off Joey Lucchesi accounted for the Nats' only run on the night. Rendon has been on fire since coming off the disabled list, slashing .333/.429/.611 in five games as he looks to make up for lost time.

Longoria went 2-for-3 with two doubles and an RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Phillies.

In addition to the doubles, Longoria struck out in his only other at-bat before being lifted in the sixth inning with the game already well out of hand. He's now posting a 3:35 BB:K and hasn't drawn a walk since April 23. Even with the two-hit night, Longoria is just 7-for-31 (.226) since the calendar flipped to May, but three of those hits -- all doubles -- have come in the last two games.

Muncy is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

As per usual, Muncy will head to the bench with a left-handed starter (Patrick Corbin) toeing the rubber for the opposition. Kyle Farmer will pick up the start at third base in his stead, hitting eighth.

LeMahieu is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

Making his return from the disabled list, LeMahieu went 1-for-4 with an RBI on Tuesday in the first game of the two-game interleague series. It seems the Rockies are just being cautious with LeMahieu, sitting him for Wednesday's afternoon game as to not risk aggravation of the hamstring injury. Daniel Castro gets the start at second base.

Anderson went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Cubs.

It was Anderson's second extra-base hit in as many games, and he's now hitting .345 (10-for-29) over his last eight games. With the latest hot stretch, the 24-year-old is slashing .268/.367/.378 to go along with 18 RBI.

LeMahieu (hamstring) was activated from the disabled list and is starting at second base and hitting leadoff Tuesday against the Angels, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

As planned, LeMahieu will return to action Tuesday night. In a corresponding move, Pat Valaika was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque.

LeMahieu (hamstring) is expected to return from the disabled list prior to Tuesday's game against the Angels, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

There had been some uncertainty as to whether LeMahieu would be ready to return after missing the minimum 10 days, but it appears that will indeed be the case. He's expected to rejoin Colorado's lineup Tuesday, at which point he'll look to continue his strong start to the season. Before landing on the disabled list, LeMahieu had hit .290/.367/.505 with five home runs over 27 games.
