Suarez (finger) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

The third baseman had X-rays on his right index finger come back negative after being hit by a pitch during Monday's contest, but it's not a surprise he's sitting Tuesday since manager Torey Lovullo said additional testing was scheduled. Suarez is arguably the top player available ahead of Thursday's trade deadline, so there's league-wide interest in his injury diagnosis. Blaze Alexander is manning the hot corner Tuesday for Arizona.

Garcia went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored, an RBI and a walk in Monday's 10-7 loss against Atlanta.

Garcia got a break from the field Monday, serving as the designated hitter and making a strong impact at the plate. He extended his hitting streak to five games, during which he's slashing .500/.571/1.167 with two doubles, two triples, two home runs, a stolen base and five RBI. The 25-year-old is enjoying a true breakout campaign, slashing .301/.357/.476 with 28 doubles, five triples, 10 homers, 19 stolen bases and 46 RBI through 105 games. After recording an OPS below .600 in both 2023 and 2024, Garcia's current .833 OPS ranks second among Royals qualifiers, behind only Bobby Witt.

Mauricio went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Padres.

The switch-hitting infielder took Padres closer Robert Suarez deep in the top of the ninth inning to tie the game at 6-6, only for San Diego to walk it off in the bottom of the frame. Mauricio has homered in back-to-back contests, and over 16 games in July he's slashing .292/.358/.563 with four doubles, three home runs, one steal four RBI and 10 runs as he stakes a claim to a strong-side platoon role at third base.

Chapman went 1-for-4 with an RBI triple and was hit by a pitch in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates.

Chapman lined a triple to right field in the first inning, driving in the Giants' first run. The third baseman initially struggled upon returning to game action following an extended absence due to a sprained right hand. However, he's turned things around recently, recording at least one hit in seven of his last eight games. During that span, he's slashed .355/.444/.903 with 11 RBI, seven runs scored, four homers, two triples and a double across 36 plate appearances.

Jung went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Angels.

Jung briefly tied the game at 3-3 with his sixth-inning home run. It extended the third baseman's hit streak to seven games and gave him four RBI over the last three contests. The home run was the 10th of the season for Jung, who has had a couple of rocky seasons since emerging as a rookie in 2023. A wrist injury derailed him in 2024, while a June swoon (.429 OPS) resulted in a trip back to the minors for a stretch this season.

Bregman went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Twins.

Bregman homered in his second straight game and collected a trio of RBI for the second time in the month of July. The star third baseman has posted at least one hit in 10 of his last 12 outings since coming off the injured list, during which he's batting a hot .302 with three round trippers, two doubles and nine RBI over 43 at-bats.

Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's victory over the Rangers.

After Taylor Ward gave the Angels a one-run lead to start the sixth inning, Rengifo padded the advantage a few batters later with a two-run homer. The switch-hitting infielder has posted just a .612 OPS this season after topping .720 in each of the previous three years. While never known for his power, his 13 doubles, one triple and five home runs through 100 games translate to a weak .328 slugging percentage. Despite his struggles, Rengifo has continued to see steady playing time, thanks in part to his defensive versatility but also due to injuries to fellow infielders Yoan Moncada (hand), Chris Taylor (hand) and Christian Moore (thumb).

Newman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's win over the Rangers.

The second baseman opened the scoring Monday with a rocket home run to left-center off ace Jacob deGrom in the third inning. It was Newman's second long ball of the season, coming exactly one month after his first on June 28. The veteran had struggled mightily in July, entering the game with a .217/.217/.217 slash line and just one RBI in 23 at-bats. Despite his season-long struggles, Newman has remained on the roster, largely due to injuries to Christian Moore (thumb), Chris Taylor (hand) and Yoan Moncada (hand).

Vientos went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in a loss to the Padres on Monday.

It could have actually been a bigger game for Vientos -- he was robbed of a homer by Fernando Tatis in the fourth inning. When Vientos next came to the plate with the bases loaded in the fifth, he ensured Tatis couldn't rob him again, smashing a 385-foot shot to clear the bases. The long ball ended a lengthy power drought for Vientos, whose previous home run had come May 28, a span of 23 games. Vientos now has seven homers over 74 contests this year, well off the pace of the 27 home runs he belted across 111 regular-season games in 2024.

Westburg went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 11-4 win over the Blue Jays.

It was Westburg's seventh game with at least three hits this season and his fourth such effort of the month of July. The 26-year-old infielder has gotten into a rhythm at the dish after missing about a month and a half due to a hamstring strain -- Westburg is slashing .289/.338/.504 with seven home runs, five doubles, 17 RBI and 26 runs scored across his last 130 plate appearances (32 games).
