Duffy was removed from Tuesday's win over the Angels with a facial laceration after colliding with Adolis Garcia during the eighth inning, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Duffy was apparently mostly unaffected from the collision itself, but the ball popped out of his glove and struck him in the face, resulting in the laceration. The 31-year-old appears to have avoided a serious injury and should be considered day-to-day.

Segura went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Padres.

The shortstop reached on an error in the bottom of the second and subsequently stole second base. Segura now has five swipes on the season, four of which have come in the last five games. He also extended his hit streak to 13 consecutive games Tuesday, adding a single in the bottom of the seventh. Over that stretch, Segura has batted .417 with four homers, nine RBI, 12 runs and four stolen bases. The hot stretch has raised his season-long batting average from .227 to .307 over 114 at-bats.

Candelario went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Rays.

Candelario hit his third home run of the season in the fifth inning, but as has often been the case this year, the Tigers struggled to get much else going offensively. The third baseman has contributed to those struggles at times with his .203 batting average, but he's at least been better in May with a .254 mark for the month. Candelario hit .271 in 2021 and .297 in 2020, so his track record suggests he'll continue trending upward.

Suarez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run in a loss to the Blue Jays on Monday.

Suarez offered one of the few noteworthy moments for the Mariners' offense Monday, lacing a 382-foot solo shot to left field in the seventh. The slugger's homer marked his first time leaving the yard since May 6, and he's now hit safely in three of his last four games.

Arenado is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mets, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Arenado went 0-for-4 with a strikeout during Game 1 and will take a seat for the nightcap after starting 15 consecutive games. Brendan Donovan will shift to the hot corner while Edmundo Sosa starts at shortstop.

Peterson is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

Peterson will head to the bench after starting seven of the last eight games while seeing action at three different positions. Andrew McCutchen (illness) is expected to return from the COVID-19 injured list later this week and close off a potential avenue to playing time in the outfield, but Peterson could continue to pick up starts in the infield if Willy Adames (ankle) is forced to the 10-day IL.

Longoria is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Longoria has been back from the injured list for less than a week, so it's no surprise that the Giants don't want him starting on four consecutive days just yet. Wilmer Flores will be the third baseman Tuesday.

Hayes is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Hayes' off day is just his fourth this season. While he's yet to homer this season, he's having a strong year at the plate, hitting .293/.390/.371. He's also added three steals. Michael Perez will start at third base in his absence.

Toro will sit Tuesday against the Blue Jays.

Toro isn't the Mariners' primary starter at any one position, but he's been in the lineup more often than not, starting 28 of 37 games thus far. He hasn't exactly hit well enough to be a regular, however, slashing .156/.217/.312 on the year, though that line should rise along with his .140 BABIP.

Anderson will start in left field and bat fifth in Tuesday's game against the Nationals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

After making four straight starts at the hot corner and going a collective 3-for-14 with a home run, a double, two walks, four runs and two RBI over that span, Anderson will remain in the lineup for the fifth time in a row, this time filling in as an outfielder for the resting Jorge Soler. Anderson should have a clear path to steady playing time at the hot corner for the duration of Joey Wendle's (hamstring) stint on the 10-day injured list before likely transitioning back into a utility role.
