Gordon (wrist) remains out of the lineup Monday against Oakland, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Gordon hasn't played since getting hit by a pitch Thursday, although Greg Johns of MLB.com reports the infielder took grounders with the rest of the team during batting practice Monday. Shed Long remains the starting second baseman in his absence.

Lindor went 2-for-4 and scored a run Sunday in the Indians' 5-3 win over the Athletics.

Lindor finished the weekend with back-to-back two-hit performances, propping his average up to .278 since he was activated from the 10-day injured list April 20. There was some concern that the right calf strain Lindor suffered prior to spring training and the left ankle sprain he sustained in late March might limit his impact on the basepaths, but he was successful in his first three stolen-base attempts before being thrown out Sunday.

Baez went 2-for-3 with an RBI double and a walk Sunday in the Cubs' 4-1 win over the Brewers.

Baez's fifth-inning extra-base knock drove home Kris Bryant and broke a 1-1 stalemate. After reaching base three times in the series finale, Baez's OPS now sits at a robust .987 for the season, more than 100 points better than his mark from his runner-up MVP season in 2018. It bears mentioning, however, that Baez has benefited from a .402 BABIP (career .342 mark), suggesting his .323/.360/.627 slash line should be viewed with a fair dose of skepticism.

Diaz went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 15-5 win over Texas.

Diaz has started five of the last six games and produced his best stretch of the season, going 5-for-18 (.278) with a home run, seven RBI and three runs scored. A lack of consistent plate appearances has limited Diaz to a .232 batting average, but with Jose Altuve (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list, Diaz will get consistent at-bats over the next week.

Ahmed went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Braves.

Six of Ahmed's last eight hits have gone for extra bases. Sunday's double was his 13th, ranking him seventh in MLB. He's sacrificed the flyball approach that enabled him to hit 16 home runs in 2018 but has maintained a higher batting average (.255), slugging percentage (.416) and OPS (.717) with an approach focused on line drives and groundballs.

Camargo went 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Camargo knocked in a pair of runs in the third inning on a single to left, extending Atlanta's lead to three. The 25-year-old has struggled to hit for average so far this season over 32 games (.241), but he's hit safely in three straight ballgames.

Seager went 1-for-3 against Washington on Sunday, driving in five runs with a grand slam and a sacrifice fly.

Seager's run-scoring flyball put the Dodgers on the board in the second inning, and he blew the game open with a bases-loaded blast to deep right field in the eighth. Seager has struggled out of the gate in his first season back from Tommy John surgery, so perhaps his big game Sunday is a step toward turning things around.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 5-1 victory against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

With the three-hit afternoon, Anderson improved to 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers and six RBI in the last seven games. He's only walked six times this season, but Anderson still supports a healthy .331/.362/.535 slash line. Anderson also has eight home runs, 24 RBI and 25 runs in 142 at-bats this year.

Crawford will start at shortstop and bat second Sunday against the Red Sox, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

Crawford will slot into the two hole for the second game in a row, with the Mariners likely hoping the on-base skills he displayed in the minors carry over in his return to the big leagues. The 24-year-old's stay in the lineup could prove to be short-lived, however, as the Mariners have thus far resisted moving Dee Gordon (wrist) to the injured list and view the speedy second baseman as day-to-day.

Adrianza will start at second base and bat seventh Sunday against the Tigers, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Adrianza was in the lineup for both halves of Saturday's doubleheader, finishing the day 1-for-6 with a pair of walks. Though he'll stick in the starting nine Sunday in place of a resting Jonathan Schoop, Adrianza likely won't be in store for a more extended run in the lineup anytime soon while he maintains a .423 OPS on the season.
