Camargo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Mets.

The 24-year-old has homered in back-to-back games, giving him four on the season, and he's also hit safely in six of his last seven contests. Camargo will need to stay hot if he wants to hang onto the starting third base job for the Braves and keep top prospect Austin Riley down at Triple-A Gwinnett, however.

Baez went 2-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Pirates.

Baez got his team on the board with an RBI single in the first inning, but the Cubs' offense fizzled from there. The 25-year-old now has a solid .271 average and .864 OPS to go along with a team-high 43 RBI.

Castro is hitting just .140 with the Rockies this season and hasn't started since May 23.

A hot start at Triple-A earned the versatile infielder a promotion in early May, but he's done little at the plate since joining the big-league team. Castro is making contact at an 84 percent clip, but he's doing little with the balls he puts in play. The Rockies recently called up Ryan McMahon to fill in for DJ LeMahieu (thumb) at second base, so Castro appears to be relegated to a full-time bench role once again.

Camargo went 2-for-5 with a walkoff solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's win over the Mets.

His ninth-inning blast off Gerson Bautista was Camargo's third homer of the year, and his first career walkoff shot. The 24-year-old now has a .296/.486/.519 slash line over his last 10 games with a stunning 9:3 BB:K. Until the Braves decide Austin Riley is ready to tackle the big leagues, the starting third base job should remain Camargo's.

Arcia is out of Wednesday's lineup against the Cardinals.

He was recalled from Triple-A ahead of this game less than a week after being optioned down. Tyler Saladino (ankle) landed on the disabled list, but it's not clear that the Brewers are ready to return Arcia to an everyday role, given that he is out of the lineup in his first game back. Eric Sogard is starting at shortstop and hitting seventh.

Arcia was brought up from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Wednesday.

Arcia figures to resume his role as the starter at shortstop with Tyler Saladino (ankle) forced to hit the shelf. The 23-year-old was sent down to the minors Friday after hitting just .194 with two home runs and 13 RBI through 44 games.

Rojas is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas figures to serve as the Marlins' primary third baseman while Martin Prado (hamstring) is on the shelf, but he'll head to the bench Tuesday after starting the previous three games at the hot corner. Brian Anderson will start at third base and hit cleanup in his stead.

Baez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

Baez has collected five hits over the last three games, including a pair of homers, but he'll head to the bench for a breather after starting seven straight games. Ben Zobrist will start at the keystone in his stead, opening up a spot for Jason Heyward to start in right field.

Rojas went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Monday's 7-2 win over the Padres.

It was yet another solid showing from Rojas, whose .263 average, seven home runs, 24 RBI and two stolen bases on the season have made him a surprising asset in deeper mixed and NL-only leagues. While fantasy owners will likely continue to deploy Rojas at shortstop or a middle-infield slot, the 29-year-old nonetheless appears poised to gain third-base eligibility in the near future if he doesn't have it already -- he made 15 appearances at the position in 2017. He has made his last three starts at the hot corner and should serve as the primary option there with Martin Prado (hamstring) likely in store for an extended absence.

Owings went 1-for-3 with a home run, walk, three RBI and three runs in the Diamondbacks' 12-5 win over the Reds on Monday.

Owings plated all three of the runs on his fifth-inning round tripper, which gave the Arizona pitching staff all the cushion it would need in the series opener. The home run was just Owings' fifth hit in 51 at-bats, with the offensive skid leaving the utility man's season line at an unpalatable .183/.247/.296. Owings should continue to see steady playing time in the outfield while A.J. Pollock (thumb) and Steven Souza (pectoral) are on the disabled list, but Owings will probably need to put together a few quality performances in a row before he generates much intrigue outside of NL-only formats.
