Muncy (wrist) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

As expected, Muncy will miss a fourth consecutive start after being hit on the wrist by a pitch Friday. Manager Dave Roberts said Monday that he was hoping to have Muncy back in action Wednesday, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, though the team is also not ruling out the possibility of an IL stint if Muncy is still limited in the coming days.

Gilbert is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

The Diamondbacks are sending southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez to the mound, so the left-handed hitting Gilbert will take a seat. The Giants have Jesus Rodriguez, Harrison Bader and Victor Bericoto manning their outfield Tuesday.

Susac is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

Susac went 1-for-11 in the three games he started after his last game on the bench May 22. As he rests Tuesday, Eric Haase starts behind the plate, batting eighth.

Arraez is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

Arraez is taking a seat for the first time since May 6, which is when he sat due to a sore thumb. Since then, the infielder has a slashed .324/.397/.485 across 17 games. While the left-handed bat of Arraez takes a seat Tuesday, Casey Schmitt will start at second while Bryce Eldridge serves as the designated hitter.

Phillips (elbow) is facing hitters Tuesday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Phillips had surgery on his elbow in early June 2025. Before the 2026 season began, the reliever was eyeing a return in July or August. Now facing live hitters, he appears on track for a return within that timetable.

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

Vientos will hit the bench following a stretch of 22 consecutive starts, during which he produced a .227/.253/.420 slash line with four home runs, 15 RBI and nine runs. The Mets reinstated Jared Young (knee) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday and will insert him into the starting nine at first base in Vientos' stead.

Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

The Mets are sending a lefty (David Peterson) to the bump for the second game of the series, so the left-handed-hitting Lowe will retreat to the bench. Spencer Steer will cover first base in place of Lowe, who went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks and a run in the Reds' 8-2 win Monday in the series opener.

Friedl is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Friedl will head to the bench for the fifth time in six games and looks to have faded into a reserve role while he's struggled to a .176/.255/.257 slash line and a career-worst 23.7 percent strikeout rate over 169 plate appearances. The Reds appear prepared to move forward with a tandem of Blake Dunn and Dane Myers in center field for the time being.

Caissie is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Caissie will take a seat for the first time since last Wednesday, bringing an end to a stretch of five consecutive starts during which he went 5-for-14 with one home run, two doubles, one walk and seven RBI. Heriberto Hernandez will take Caissie's spot in the outfield and will bat seventh.

Norby (elbow) will start at first base and bat fifth in Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Norby will rejoin the starting nine after he was held out of action in Monday's 8-2 win over Toronto due to the left elbow injury he sustained in Sunday's 4-0 victory over the Mets. The 25-year-old will enter Tuesday's contest having produced a .213/.324/.328 slash line with one home run, four stolen bases, nine runs and four RBI through 20 games in May.
