Pederson went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in a victory over the Phillies on Sunday.

After leaving four men on base in his first four plate appearances, Pederson drilled a two-run shot to cap a seven-run eighth inning for the Dodgers. Despite sitting most games against lefties, Pederson is now tied for fourth in the majors with 18 homers this season. He also ranks second to Christian Yelich with a 9.0 AB/HR. His season slash line rests at .272/.374/.667.

Dickerson (wrist) was activated off the 10-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

Dickerson has been out with the right wrist sprain for almost two weeks and will return to the minors after going 3-for-19 with one run and two RBI in 12 games with the Friars. The 29-year-old will look to continue tearing the cover off the ball at El Paso, where he has a 1.055 OPS in 104 plate appearances this season.

Reyes is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Reyes started the last five games and went 4-for-20 with a solo homer after missing time with a sore shoulder last weekend. Josh Naylor will start in right field and bat second in his stead Sunday.

Turner (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Phillies, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Turner will remain out of the starting nine for the fourth consecutive game while he continues to nurse a sore right hamstring. According to David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports, manager Dave Roberts expects the veteran third baseman to rejoin the lineup Monday at Arizona.

Manager Bud Black said Blackmon (calf) won't be activated off the 10-day injured list Tuesday and will likely require a rehab assignment, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.

Blackmon previously said he expected to return when first eligible Tuesday, but it looks as though he'll require some additional recovery time. The 32-year-old has been out since May 24 with the right calf issue and shouldn't require a lengthy rehab stint in the minors. On an encouraging note, Blackmon was able to take batting practice Sunday and is gradually ramping up his baseball activities, per Thomas Harding of MLB.com.

Ozuna went 3-for-4 with an RBI single and a run in a win over the Cubs on Saturday.

Ozuna was a thorn in the side of Cubs pitching throughout the night, posting his third multi-hit effort of the last four games in the process. The veteran has also driven in at least one run in five straight games while swatting a pair of homers over that span as well.

Carpenter is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Cubs.

Carpenter will head to the bench for the second time in four games after going 2-for-8 with one RBI and one walk in the first two games of the series. Jedd Gyorko will start at third base and bat sixth with lefty Cole Hamels on the mound for the Cubs.

Ramirez went 1-for-5 with a double, a run scored and three RBI in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Padres.

It's the rookie's first game as a Marlin with multiple RBI -- an impressive rebound after he saw his 10-game hitting streak snapped Friday. Ramirez is now slashing .355/.403/.468 with a homer, eight RBI and 10 runs through his first 17 big-league contests.

Winker grounded into two double plays in Saturday's loss to the Nationals, as the team hit into three double plays and left nine runners on base.

Though Winker had a single in the game, he was one of many Reds to fail in clutch situations Saturday. He's hitting .239/.312/.450 on the season.

Harper went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs scored in a 4-3 loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.

Harper scored his first run of the night on a J.T. Realmuto single in the fourth inning before tying the game with his eighth-inning blast that also scored Jean Segura. Harper has multiple hits in four of his last five games, going 10-for-20 with two homers, five doubles and nine RBI in that span. Overall, the right fielder is hitting .252/.366/.495 with 11 homers in 58 games this season.
