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.

The Dodgers announced that Muncy's removal in the bottom of the third inning of Sunday's game against the Rays was due to a left hamstring cramp.

Muncy suffered the injury while running the bases in the top of the third, and though he was initially able to stay in the game, James Outman came off the bench to replace Muncy when the Dodgers returned to the field for defense in the bottom of the frame. Before departing, Muncy delivered the goods for fantasy managers, going 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run. So long as follow-up tests on his hamstring don't reveal any sort of strain, Muncy could conceivably return to the lineup for the Dodgers' next game Monday versus the Nationals.

Muncy left Sunday's game against the Rays after suffering an apparent injury in the top of the third inning, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports. He went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored before leaving the contest.

Muncy was seen limping around while running the bases, and while he was initially able to stay in the game, he wasn't able to stay in the game when the Dodgers returned to the field in the bottom of the third. The Dodgers should provide an update on the hot-hitting Muncy later Sunday, but for now, he can be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener with the Nationals.

Baty is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Baty will take a break Sunday after going 3-for-9 with a pair of runs driven in over the first two games of the series. Mark Vientos will get the start at third base and hit fifth in Baty's absence.

Suarez went 1-for-3 with a run-scoring single, an RBI sacrifice fly and a run in a win over the Pirates on Saturday.

While Suarez's season average sits at a lackluster .219, the veteran slugger's knack for clutch hitting has resulted in him now compiling 31 RBI across 52 games. Suarez is hitting a blistering .375 over 67 plate appearances with men in scoring position, and he already boasts 11 multi-RBI games in 2023. The veteran's productive day Saturday snapped a brief 0-for-16 skid that had encompassed his previous four contests.

Candelario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Candelario will take a seat for just the third time in May, giving way at third base to Michael Chavis. The 29-year-old has gotten off to a strong start to the season and has performed well in May in particular, accruing an .876 OPS so far this month.
