The Brewers optioned Toro to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Toro hadn't started since June 6 and appeared in just one other game over the past week, so the Brewers deemed him expendable with the club needing to make room on the 26-man active roster for outfielder Raimel Tapia, who finalized a one-year deal Wednesday. During his two-week stay with Milwaukee, Toro went 4-for-8 with a home run and five RBI.

Farmer went 2-for-3 with a double and a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Brewers.

Getting the start at second base and batting seventh, Farmer chased Corbin Burnes from the game by leading off the seventh inning with his fourth homer of the season. The 32-year-old infielder has started only two of the last seven games, and with Edouard Julien getting a look at the keystone and Royce Lewis handling the hot corner, playing time will likely be scarce for Farmer despite his solid .270/.328/.393 slash line on the season.

Devers went 2-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

The star third baseman got the Red Sox on the board by taking Chase Anderson deep in the fourth inning for a two-run shot, then launched another two-run homer in the 10th off Matt Carasiti. Unfortunately for Boston, Colorado had scored three times in the top of the 10th. Devers has gone yard four times in the last five games, but a feast-or-famine June that has seen him fail to collect a hit in six of his 13 games has left him with a .250/.351/.563 slash line on the month to date.

Devers went 2-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to Colorado.

Devers launched his third and fourth homers over the last five games, giving him 17 home runs and an MLB-leading 56 RBI through 65 games. Prior to this recent outburst, the third baseman endured a power outage. Devers had gone 16 games without a home run and had a .230 slugging percentage in that span.

Giants manager Gabe Kapler said after Tuesday's 11-3 win over the Cardinals that it's unclear if Davis (ankle) will need a stint on the 10-day injured list, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Kapler said that one or both of Luis Matos and David Villar will be called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, as San Francisco will place Mitch Haniger on the injured list with a fractured forearm. It's widely been reported that Matos is heading to St. Louis to join the club, and Villar's potential promotion likely hinges on whether the club believes Davis can get back on the field in the coming days.

Henderson went 3-for-5 with a grand slam in Tuesday's 11-6 win over Toronto.

Henderson's now homered in three straight games while recording multiple hits in his last four contests, going 11-for-18 (.611) with eight RBI in that span. It's been an incredible stretch for the 21-year-old rookie after a very slow start to the season. Henderson is now slashing .246/.355/.475 with 10 homers, 35 runs scored, 25 RBI and four stolen bases through 214 plate appearances this season.

Davis left Tuesday's game versus St. Louis with a sprained right ankle, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Davis injured the ankle early in the contest sliding into third base, and the veteran infielder was unable to continue. He should be considered day-to-day for now, but David Villar was removed from Triple-A Sacramento's game Tuesday, and will likely receive a promotion if and when the Giants place Davis on the 10-day injured list.

Davis was lifted from Tuesday's game against the Cardinals with an apparent ankle injury, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Davis appeared to injure his right ankle during an awkward slide into third base. The Giants will take a look at him and should provide more details shortly, but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the time being.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that Muncy is out of the lineup due to a left hamstring strain, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Muncy apparently strained his hamstring while running to first base during his final at-bat Sunday. He's scheduled to receive an MRI on Wednesday and won't return to the lineup until Thursday at the earliest.

Muncy is not in the lineup Tuesday against the White Sox.

Chris Taylor is covering third base and Mookie Betts will play shortstop as the Dodgers open a three-game series with Chicago. Muncy has gone 2-for-28 (.071) over his last eight games.
