McMahon went 3-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Dodgers.

McMahon has gone 6-for-14 (.429) to begin July, and he's already posted a pair of multi-hit efforts. His steal Tuesday was also his second of the month, which accounts for all of his thefts this year. The infielder is up to a .245/.338/.383 slash line with seven home runs, 38 RBI, 33 runs scored, 13 doubles and two triples through 79 contests.

Muncy went 2-for-2 with a home run, a double, two walks, two RBI, a stolen base and three runs scored in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rockies.

Muncy is starting to find his power again, as he's homered three times in his last seven games. He was productive across the board Tuesday, but that's been a rarity for the infielder in 2022. For the season, he's at a .171/.326/.327 slash line with eight homers, one steal, 25 RBI and 32 runs scored through 261 plate appearances.

Chapman went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Athletics.

Chapman tied the game at 2-2 with his second-inning blast. The third baseman was ice cold to begin July, with his long ball snapping an 0-for-16 skid. He's now batting .220/.293/.407 with 12 homers, 39 RBI, 41 runs scored and 14 doubles through 300 plate appearances in his first year with the Blue Jays.

Bregman went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 9-7 win over the Royals.

Bregman reached the 10-homer mark for the year with his fifth-inning blast. The 28-year-old has a pair of three-hit efforts in his last seven games, going 9-for-27 (.333) in that span. The third baseman is up to a .244/.359/.417 slash line with 42 RBI, 43 runs scored and 17 doubles through 77 contests overall, while he's steadily trended up over the last three weeks or so.

Riley went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional RBI in a 7-1 win against the Cardinals on Tuesday.

Riley contributed to a five-run first with a two-run home run. He followed up with a single in the third and a run-scoring double in the fourth to chase St. Louis starter Andre Pallante. The 25-year-old has been scorching of late, batting 12-for-24 with three doubles and three home runs over his last six games. The long ball was Riley's 21st, putting him on pace to surpass last season's career high of 33.

Segura has had the pins removed from his broken right index finger, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Segura is about a month removed from undergoing surgery on his broken finger, and this is the first reported sign of progress. Segura has resumed working out and was able to field some grounders Tuesday, but he still has a ways to go in his recovery and is not expected back until sometime in mid-to-late August.

Miranda will start at third base and bat seventh in Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

Miranda will pick up his third start in a row and has now replaced Gio Urshela at third base on two of those occasions. Now that the Twins have nearly all of their key everyday players back from the injured list, the hot corner looks as though it could represent Miranda's most realistic path to consistent playing time moving forward. Urshela still remains atop the depth chart, but Miranda has outperformed him since the rookie was called up from Triple-A St. Paul on May 30. In the month-plus since that time, Miranda has produced an .824 OPS, a mark 89 points higher than Urshela's.

Urshela is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

Urshela is sitting for the second time in three games and could be in danger of falling into a timeshare at third base with rookie Jose Miranda. After getting off to a rough start to his big-league career upon his initial promotion from Triple-A St. Paul at the start of May, Miranda has shown major improvement in his second stint with the big club. Dating back to his May 30 call-up, Miranda has produced an .824 OPS, while Urshela's sits at .735 over that same span.

Reynolds will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Reynolds will get his third straight start in the middle infield while everyday shortstop Kyle Farmer (hand) misses another game. The Reds haven't suggested that Farmer is a candidate to land on the 10-day injured list, so Reynolds' stint as a lineup regular could soon come to an end. Reynolds was productive in Tuesday's 7-4 loss, going 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored while also reaching base on a hit-by-pitch.

Farmer (hand) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Farmer's hand injury will keep him on the bench for the third game in a row, but the Reds seemingly have optimism he'll avoid a trip to the injured list. According to Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer, manager David Bell said Farmer was re-evaluated Tuesday and received more good news, though the skipper didn't go into any specifics. Matt Reynolds will fill in at shortstop and should operate as the primary option at the position for however long Farmer is sidelined.
