LeMahieu was replaced at second base between innings Sunday after slowly making his way off the field, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.

LeMahieu carefully walked off the field at the end of an inning and appeared to have trouble making it down the dugout steps, although it's unclear as to what was ailing him. He banged his knee during Saturday's matchup, so it's possible he's still being bothered by the same issue. LeMahieu will benefit from an off day Monday before the Yankees begin a two-game series with the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Longoria is not in the lineup Sunday against the Yankees, Amy Gutierrez of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Longoria finds himself on the bench for just the third time this season. Pablo Sandoval gets the call at third base.

Rendon's elbow has swollen up in the last two days and may force him to head to the injured list, source reports.

Rendon missed four games with an elbow bruise after getting hit by a pitch in the left elbow. He returned Friday but perhaps shouldn't have, as that only increased the swelling. The Nationals will make a decision on whether or not to send him to the injured list Monday. Jake Noll would be called back up from Triple-A Fresno should such a move be necessary.

Candelario is starting at third base and batting leadoff in Sunday's game against the White Sox.

This will now be six straight appearances as the Tigers' leadoff hitter for Candelario, as he's clearly taken the baton from the struggling Josh Harrison. The 25-year-old hasn't been lighting the world on fire with his .239/.333/.315 slash line, but his placement atop the order could lead to more runs moving forward.

Rendon is not in the lineup Sunday against San Diego.

Rendon returned from a four-game absence due to an elbow bruise on Friday, but he's since been back on the bench for two straight. Howie Kendrick gets the start at third base.

McMahon is not starting Sunday against the Braves.

McMahon is riding a six-game hitting streak. He'll sit Sunday, with Garrett Hampson getting the start at second base.

Segura is in the lineup Sunday against the Marlins after a pitch struck him in the head in Saturday's game, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic reports.

Segura's helmet did its job, as the pitch was enough to knock him out of the game but did not lead to a concussion. He'll bat second and play shortstop as usual.

Arenado went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Saturday's 9-5 win over Atlanta.

It took the third baseman until April 14 to hit his first homer, but since then Arenado's been on fire, hitting .356 (16-for-45) with four doubles, six home runs and 14 RBI over his last 11 games. The hot streak has pushed his slash line up to .292/.336/.538, and given his career numbers there should be plenty more production to come.

Segura did not suffer a concussion when he was hit in the head by a pitch Saturday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Thankfully Segura remained somewhat protected as he was hit in the helmet by the fastball, but it was still a scary situation as he stayed down for some time before eventually walking off the field. Sean Rodriguez figures to fill in at shortstop should Segura require any time off.

Segura left Saturday's game against the Marlins after getting hit in the head by a fastball, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Segura stayed down for some time but was eventually able to walk off the field. The at-bat was just his second since returning from the injured list earlier in the day. Sean Rodriguez replaced him in Saturday's contest and would be in line for more starts if Segura is forced to miss more time.
