Henderson is not in the starting lineup Monday against the Guardians, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Henderson will take a seat as the Orioles face off with left-hander Logan Allen on Monday. The 21-year-old has struggled to find his stride this season, batting just .200 over 145 at-bats, though he is seeing the ball a little better recently, batting .267 over his last 14 contests. Righty bat Ramon Urias will draw the start at third base and bat fifth in the series opener with Cleveland.

The Twins reinstated Lewis (knee) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Minnesota is adding some reinforcements to its lineup ahead of Monday's series opener in Houston, as Lewis and outfielder Max Kepler (hamstring) are both returning from the IL. Manager Rocco Baldelli hasn't gone into specifics about his plans for Lewis, but the 24-year-old should get the chance to play on at least a semi-regular basis after he looked fully recovered from the torn ACL he suffered last season during his recent eight-game rehab assignment at Triple-A St. Paul. While seeing time at both third base and shortstop, Lewis slashed .333/.371/.727 with four home runs and two stolen bases across 35 plate appearances. The five-category upside he brings to the table makes Lewis worth at least a cursory pickup if he's available on the waiver wire, even in shallower leagues.

Wisdom went 2-for-3 with a pair of home runs, a walk and five RBI in Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Reds.

Wisdom drove in all five runs for the Cubs after hitting a home run in the second and then another in the eighth. Sunday was just his second multi-hit game this month and his first long ball since May 10. He had been held out of the lineup two of the previous three times the Cubs had faced a righty and will likely need to bring his strikeouts down before he can be considered as a regular fixture again. The 31-year-old is now slashing .225/.316/.556 with 14 homers, 28 RBI, 28 runs and a 19:65 BB:K over 172 plate appearances.

Peterson went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 10-1 loss to the Astros.

Peterson went hitless for the fifth time in his last six games, a span in which he's gone 1-for-19, but he was able to make an impact in his one trip on base. The steal was his fifth of the season. He's hitting just .146 (6-for-41) over his last 14 contests, but the Athletics are lacking for more effective options. Peterson has a .194/.291/.285 slash line with three home runs, 12 RBI and 13 runs scored through 165 plate appearances as Oakland's primary third baseman this year.

McMahon went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, five RBI, three runs scored and a walk in Sunday's 11-10 win over the Mets.

McMahon has homered in three straight games to close out the Rockies' current homestand, and he's knocked in 10 runs over his last six contests. The power surge has added 72 points to his slugging percentage since Wednesday. He's at a .238/.321/.443 slash line with seven homers, 28 RBI, 27 runs scored and four stolen bases over 52 games this season, and the vast majority of his damage has been done at Coors Field -- he has a .934 OPS at home but a .582 mark on the road.

Lewis (knee) will be reinstated from the 60-day injured list Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Lewis tore his ACL in June of 2022 and was forced to begin the season on the 60-day IL, but he began a rehab assignment in early May and will return from the IL when first eligible. Over 10 rehab games between Double-A Wichita and Triple-A St. Paul, he slashed .333/.395/.692 with four homers, two doubles, 11 RBI, 10 runs and four steals.

Muncy said after Sunday's 11-10 loss to the Rays that he will undergo an MRI on his left hamstring Monday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Though the Dodgers described Muncy's injury as a left hamstring cramp when he was removed in the bottom of the third inning, he'll still undergo imaging as the team looks to confirm that he's avoided a strain. Muncy, who went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run before exiting the contest, picked up the injury while running the bases in the top of the third. Even if the MRI yields good news, it wouldn't be surprising if Muncy sat out Monday's game against the Nationals for precautionary purposes.

Paredes went 3-for-5 with a double, a homer, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-10 victory over the Dodgers.

Paredes opened the scoring Sunday with a first-inning RBI single. He notched two more RBI with a double in the second before adding a solo homer off Phil Bickford in the fourth. Paredes has gone 17-for-49 with four home runs and 16 RBI in his last 15 games. He's now slashing .282/.354/.491 with eight homers, 37 RBI and 27 runs scored through 181 plate appearances this season.

Devers (calf) will start at third base and bat second in Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Devers was idle for the first two games of the series in Arizona while battling a sore left calf, but after he was able to run on the field without issue Sunday, he'll be cleared to enter the lineup for the finale. In his return to action, Devers will be looking to put an end to a 2-for-19 skid at the plate over his last five starts before he hit the bench with the injury.

Moustakas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports.

Moustakas finds himself on the bench for a fourth consecutive game and looks as though he'll remain relegated to a reserve role even while C.J. Cron (back) is without a definitive timeline to return from the 10-day injured list. Nolan Jones will receive his third straight at first base and appears set to serve as Cron's primary replacement.
