Allen went 1-for-4 in Monday's extra-inning loss to the Cubs, and over his last 13 games he's batting just .111 (3-for-27) with a 0:10 BB:K.

The 26-year-old offers a good glove at shortstop, but Allen has never figured out how to hit big-league pitching and has a .534 OPS through 405 plate appearances this season, and a .536 OPS for his career. Atlanta claimed Ha-Seong Kim (back) off waivers from the Rays on Monday, and he's expected to take over as the team's starting shortstop once he's activated from the IL, which could happen as soon as Tuesday. Allen will likely be relegated to a late-inning defensive role after Kim joins the active roster.

Arias (hand) is expected to return to lineup Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Arias has missed three games after taking a pitch off his right hand Friday. He was available off the bench Monday but did not play. In his absence, Brayan Rocchio has filled in at shortstop.

Adames went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk and three total RBI in Monday's 8-2 victory versus Colorado.

Adames' first RBI came on a bases-loaded walk in the fifth inning. The veteran shortstop then capped the scoring in the contest with a two-run blast in the seventh. Adames has had his power stroke working of late, belting seven home runs and driving in 13 runs while batting .341 over his past 11 games. He's up to 26 long balls on the campaign, putting him within range of his third career 30-homer season.

Pena went 2-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, an RBI and a run scored Monday against the Angels.

Pena played a big role in the Astros' eight-run performance Tuesday, leading off the third inning with a double before coming around to score. Three frames later, he drove in a run with another two-base hit. Pena has multiple hits in five of his last 10 starts, also tallying six RBI and five runs scored in that span.

Perdomo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-5 extra-inning loss to the Rangers.

Perdomo has hit three homers and has a total of five extra-base hits over his last 10 games, going 10-for-41 (.244) in that span. The shortstop went back-to-back with Ketel Marte in the first inning to give Arizona an early advantage. Perdomo is up to 16 homers this season, two more than he had overall in the first three full campaigns of his career. He's added a .285/.385/.448 slash line with 88 RBI, 86 runs scored and 24 stolen bases across 138 contests.

Bichette went 4-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Reds.

Bichette amassed at least four hits for the fifth time this season, and the homer was his 17th on the year. After logging a career-worst .599 OPS during an injury-ruined 2024 regular season, Bichette has returned to form as one of fantasy's top shortstops in 2025. The infielder leads MLB in hits (176), and Bichette is batting a scorching .374 with six long balls, 22 doubles and 39 RBI over his last 211 at-bats since the start of July.

Montgomery went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-5 victory over Minnesota.

The rookie shortstop opened the game's scoring with a 395-foot solo shot off Twins starter Bailey Ober in the second. This marks the second consecutive contest Montgomery has gone deep, as he's launched a long ball in six of his last eight games. Despite a mediocre .229 batting average, the 23-year-old has been a reliable fantasy option since debuting July 4, tallying 16 homers, 39 RBI and 27 runs scored in 47 games.

Story went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional RBI in Monday's 6-4 victory over the Guardians.

The Boston shortstop poked a ball around Pesky's Pole in right for a 306-foot round tripper off Cleveland reliever Jakob Junis in the eighth. Monday's contest marked Story's 10th three-hit performance of the season, as he is coming off a hot August during which he slashed .278/.345/.472 with five homers and seven steals over 119 plate appearances. Overall, the 32-year-old is now slashing .260/.307/.437 with 23 homers, 24 steals, 86 RBI and 78 runs scored in 558 total plate appearances.

Meidroth is day-to-day after exiting Monday's game versus the Twins with a right ankle sprain, Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Meidroth initially remained in the game after tweaking his ankle, but he was eventually removed for a pinch runner in the eighth inning after reaching base on an error. The rookie infielder went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run before departing Monday's contest.

Williams is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

Williams had started each of the previous eight tilts upon his promotion from Triple-A Durham, but he'll get a breather during Monday's series opener as he navigates through a 1-for-13 stretch at the plate. One big potential road block to Williams' playing time was cleared when Ha-Seong Kim (back) was claimed off waivers by Atlanta, increasing his chances at keeping an everyday role at shortstop even if he goes through a rough stretch at the plate. It will be Tristan Gray subbing in for Williams at shortstop Monday.
