Adrianza will start at third base and bat sixth Sunday against the Dodgers.

After having started Atlanta's last four games in left field, Adrianza appears to have emerged as the primary option at the position with Marcell Ozuna (finger) on the shelf. Abraham Almonte will get the nod in left in the series finale, but the versatile Adrianza will stick in the lineup thanks to everyday third baseman Austin Riley receiving a rare day off.

Lindor went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, double, an additional run and three strikeouts in a 4-0 win over San Diego on Saturday.

Lindor's fifth-inning home run doubled New York's lead to 2-0 and he later scored an insurance run after doubling in the ninth. This was Lindor's eighth straight game with a hit as he's gone 14-for-25 in that stretch and raised his average from .182 to .222.

Seager has had no problems in his recovery from a broken right hand, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

The shortstop explained Saturday that he has been undergoing weekly scans on his hand to ensure that healing is happening as hoped. There have been no setbacks so far, and Seager has progressed to throwing and squeezing a bat with his injured right hand. He has yet to swing a bat with both hands, though, and he remains multiple weeks away from a return.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 7-5 win over Arizona.

The shortstop extended Milwaukee's lead to 5-2 in the sixth inning. Adames has settled in nicely since he was traded from Tampa Bay to Milwaukee. He's posted a .271/.364/.500 slash line in 14 games with his new team, adding three homers, 11 RBI and six runs scored.

Berti isn't starting Saturday against Pittsburgh, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Berti had started each of the last two games and went 3-for-6 with a double, two runs and a walk. Jose Devers will take over at second base and lead off.

Ahmed went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 5-1 loss to Milwaukee.

Ahmed's eighth-inning single broke up Freddy Peralta's no-hit bid and was Arizona's lone hit. He extended a modest hit streak to five games (9-for-19, .474) and stole his third bag of the season.

DeJong (ribs) will start a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville Saturday and hopes to rejoin the Cardinals at some point during their series with the Cubs next week, Jim Hayes of Bally Sports Midwest reports.

DeJong was placed on the 10-day injured list May 14 after suffering a non-displaced rib fracture. The Cardinals were hoping to have the shortstop back by the end of May, but he ultimately has been sidelined up to this point. He'll now head to Memphis to rehab, with next weekend's series against Chicago as his target for a return.

Story (elbow) threw on the field Friday and remains on track to return from the injured list Tuesday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Story is set to miss one day more than the minimum due to right elbow inflammation, as the Rockies don't play Monday, the first day he'd be eligible to return. Brendan Rodgers has handled shortstop in his absence, but Story should return to his everyday role once healthy.

The Brewers recalled Reyes from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Reyes faired decently in his first stint with Milwaukee this season, slashing .270/.270/.324 across 37 plate appearances. With Kolten Wong (oblique) landing on the 10-day injured list Friday, Reyes will rejoin the big club ahead of the game against Arizona.

Edman went 2-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Reds.

Edman singled and stole second in the first inning Thursday. He scored on a Tyler O'Neill single. The 26-year-old is slashing .275/.328/.394 with four home runs, 15 RBI and 31 runs in 256 plate appearances. He is tied for fourth in all of baseball with 11 steals.
