Bride was a late addition to Saturday's lineup against the Mariners.

He will hit seventh and start at the keystone. Bride enters the lineup after Skye Bolt was scratched with left knee soreness.

Longoria is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Longoria went 0-for-4 in the series opener, and he will now miss out on a Coors Field game as the Giants go with J.D. Davis at third base and Wilmer Flores at DH against right-hander Ryan Feltner. The team has been giving the veteran maintenance days here and there -- easily justified given his history and the fact that he's just getting past a hamstring injury.

Bride is not in Saturday's lineup against the Mariners.

Bride is hitting .214 with two doubles in 13 games this month. Tony Kemp will start at second base and hit leadoff.

Urshela is not in Saturday's lineup against the Rangers.

While Urshela is not in a strict platoon, he typically gets his days off against righties, and that is the case in this one with Glenn Otto on the hill for Texas. Jose Miranda will start at the hot corner and bat sixth.

Donaldson was a late scratch from Saturday's lineup against the Blue Jays due to a stomach bug, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

Estevan Florial was added to the lineup with Oswaldo Cabrera shifting from right field to third base. Donaldson should be considered day-to-day.

Segura went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 7-2 loss to the Mets.

The veteran infielder needed a couple games to shake off the rust after returning from a lengthy absence earlier this month, but Segura is locked in now. Over his last 10 games, he's batting .351 (13-for-37) with five runs scored and three of his 11 stolen bases on the year.

Madrigal went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Friday's 8-7 win over the Brewers.

Madrigal gave the Cubs a spark as their leadoff hitter. The second baseman is now batting .250 this season, though he's upped that to .325 across 12 games this month, which has been his first action since June due to a groin injury. If Madrigal stays healthy, he could be primed for a good finish to the year as Chicago's primary option at the keystone and a regular leadoff hitter.

Wisdom went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-7 win over the Brewers.

Wisdom connected in the fifth inning for his 22nd home run of the season. That total leads the Cubs, and the infielder is also pacing the team with 57 RBI. Wisdom had a breakout 2021 campaign with a career-high 28 long balls and 61 RBI, and he's now within distance of surpassing both figures if he has a strong finish this season.

Riley went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's victory over Houston.

Riley's three-run shot in the third inning scored Ronald Acuna and Dansby Swanson. It was Riley's 31st home run of the year, tying him with Yordan Alvarez for third-most in baseball. The third baseman has back-to-back two-hit games and despite batting just .239 for the month, has a .291 batting average on the season.

Suarez went 2-for-5 with two home runs and five RBI in a 10-2 win over the Athletics on Friday.

Suarez is a perennial 30-homer hitter and he is making a push to reach that mark once again in 2022. He blasted two long balls off Cole Irvin as part of a five-RBI night to give him 22 homers and 68 RBI on the season. Suarez now has six home runs in August and is slashing .190/.324/.534 through 17 games this month.
