Flores (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

For the fifth game in a row, Flores will remain on the bench while he contends with a tight left hamstring, but Slusser relays that the Giants remain hopeful that with the help of an off day Thursday, the veteran first baseman will avoid a trip to the injured list. With Flores sitting out once again, Rafael Devers will serve as the Giants' designated hitter, though Casey Schmitt will replace the left-handed-hitting Dominic Smith at first base while the Pirates send southpaw Andrew Heaney to the hill.

Alvarez (hand) took batting practice on the field Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Alvarez is at the team's spring training facility in Florida and continued his hitting progression. His last known activity was hitting off a tee and soft-toss pitches, so Tuesday represented a step forward. Alvarez was last known to be targeting a mid-August return, but the situation remains murky.

Keaschall went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's win against the Tigers.

In his first MLB at-bat since April 25, Keaschall ripped a two-run shot for his first career home run. He later knocked an RBI single in the fifth inning. Keaschall fractured his forearm in April but picked up right where he left off before the injury. He's produced a 1.185 OPS with five RBI and five stolen bases through 30 plate appearances.

O'Hearn isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

O'Hearn will retreat to the bench for a second consecutive game Tuesday, even with right-hander Ryne Nelson set to start on the bump for Arizona. Luis Arraez will start at first base for the Friars while O'Hearn sits, and Manny Machado will serve as the DH with Jose Iglesias at third.

Flores (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Flores exited Friday's context due to hamstring tightness and is sitting Tuesday for a fourth straight game. It's not believed to a be a serious injury, but an IL stint could be considered if he misses much more time. Dominic Smith is receiving the start at first base Tuesday while Rafael Devers serves as the designated hitter.

Suzuki is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Suzuki started the previous 86 games for the Cubs, so it's a well-deserved day off for the 30-year-old. He's struggled to a .143/.284/.214 slash line in 16 games since the All-Star break, and he'll take a day to reset Tuesday. Kyle Tucker is receiving a turn at designated hitter while Willi Castro is manning right field.

Del Castillo isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus San Diego.

Del Castillo will grab a seat on the bench for the third day in a row after going 8-for-36 (.222) with a .487 OPS through his first 10 MLB games this season. Lourdes Gurriel will take over as the Diamondbacks' designated hitter, allowing Jake McCarthy to start in left field.

The Twins reinstated Keaschall (forearm) from the 60-day injured list, and he's starting at second base and batting fifth Tuesday against the Tigers.

The rookie second baseman had been sidelined since late April due to a fractured forearm, but he's back on the active roster after a 14-game rehab assignment. Keaschall played in just seven MLB games prior to the injury but had a hot start to his career, going 7-for-19 with three doubles and five steals in 26 plate appearances.

Stanton went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks in Monday's extra-inning loss to Texas.

Stanton's long ball was a 427-foot laser to center field in the fourth inning. The slugger has done his best to prop up New York's offense in the absence of Aaron Judge (elbow) -- since Judge last played July 25, Stanton has four homers and 10 RBI in nine games. He's also struck out 16 times during that span, but as long as he continues to mash, he should be an everyday presence in both the Yankees' and fantasy managers' lineups.

Herrera went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Monday's 3-2 win over the Dodgers.

Herrera has logged three straight multi-hit efforts, but the homer was just his second since June 15. The 25-year-old missed about a month in that span due to a hamstring injury, but he has settled in as the Cardinals' main designated hitter since his return just before the All-Star break. He's also made three starts in left field over the last week, which gives him another path to playing time if he can learn the position on the fly. He's hit well enough to stay in the lineup regularly -- Herrera is batting .310 with an .880 OPS, 10 homers, 40 RBI, 28 runs scored and four steals over 247 plate appearances this season.
