Bregman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-3 victory against Tampa Bay.

Michael Wacha no-hit Houston for five innings, and Andrew Kittredge retired the first two batters he faced in the sixth. However, Bregman broke up the hitless string with his solo shot that gave Houston its first run of the game. The long ball was Bregman's second in as many games following a 10-contest homerless drought. The third baseman has struggled with injuries this season, but he has hit a solid .283 with 12 homers and 54 RBI in the 87 games in which he has played.

Urshela went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and another run scored during Tuesday's win over the Blue Jays.

Urshela knocked in an insurance run for the Yankees in the ninth inning en route to his 14th long ball of the year as he extended his hitting streak to eight. In 112 games, the 29-year-old is batting .267/.303/.421 with 47 RBI.

Duffy went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's loss to the Pirates.

Duffy has collected a hit in eight straight games, and he's batting a robust .400 during the streak. The versatile infielder is seeing regular playing time and has bumped his season-long batting average up to .278 with the strong run lately. Duffy doesn't offer a ton of pop, but fantasy managers can still find some value from the 30-year-old while he's locked in at the plate.

Nevin was called up by the Orioles on Tuesday.

Nevin made his big-league debut back in late May but appeared in just two games, going 1-for-5 with a walk. He'll give the Orioles another corner bat for the final week of the season.

Hayes isn't starting Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

Hayes has gone 2-for-10 with a double, two RBI, a run and a strikeout across his last three appearances, and he'll be out of the lineup for the second time in the last three games. Hoy Park will start at the hot corner and bat eighth.

Moustakas (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Moustakas landed on the 10-day IL with right foot plantar fasciitis last week and would have been eligible to return during the final series of the regular season, but manager David Bell said Tuesday that none of the Reds on the injured list will return this year. The 33-year-old appeared in just 62 games while battling injuries in 2021, and he slashed .208/.282/.372 with six home runs, 22 RBI and 21 runs.

Escobar isn't starting Tuesday's game against St. Louis.

Escobar will head to the bench after he went 2-for-6 with a run, a walk and two strikeouts across the last two games. Jace Peterson will shift to the hot corner while Daniel Vogelbach starts at first base.

Sosa (wrist) remains on the bench Tuesday against the Brewers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Sosa will sit for the fourth straight game after he was hit in the wrist by a pitch Friday against the Cubs. He hasn't appeared off the bench in any of the three previous games, and it's unclear if he'll be available in that capacity Tuesday. However, he played catch on the field ahead of Tuesday's matchup, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Paul DeJong remains the starter at shortstop.

Wisdom (wrist) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

Wisdom was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to right wrist soreness, and he'll be out of the starting nine for a second straight game. Matt Duffy will shift to third base while David Bote starts at the keystone.

McMahon went 1-for-4 with a three-run double, a steal and a walk in Monday's 5-4 loss to Washington.

The Rockies were being shut out through five innings before McMahon cleared the bases with a three-run double in the sixth. He drew a walk in the fourth and swiped his sixth bag of the year. The 26-year-old infielder owns an .802 OPS with 13 RBI this month, raising his season slash line to .254/.333/.448.
