Garcia (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Garcia will miss a third straight contest while he manages a tight back, but the Nationals are viewing him as day-to-day after an MRI came back negative, per MLB.com. According to Andrew Golden of The Washington Post, Garcia was spotted fielding grounders prior to Sunday's game, which could bode well for his chances of returning to the lineup Monday in Kansas City.

Atlanta designated Gonzalez for assignment Sunday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

He'll surrender his spot on the 40-man roster to waiver claim Connor Seabold. A 25-year-old right-hander, Gonzalez has yet to make his MLB debut and has spent the entire 2025 season at Triple-A Gwinnett, logging a 3.95 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 39:19 K:BB in 41 innings out of the bullpen.

Atlanta claimed Seabold off waivers from Tampa Bay on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Though he'll report to Triple-A, Seabold will provide Atlanta with organizational starting pitching depth as the big club navigates numerous injuries to its rotation. Seabold made a pair of multi-inning relief appearances for Tampa Bay but has primarily worked out of the rotation at Triple-A Durham this season, logging a 6.49 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 57:26 K:BB across 61 innings.

Kemp is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

With Edmundo Sosa emerging as the Phillies' preferred option at third base in the absence of Alec Bohm (rib), Kemp will be on the bench for the second day in a row. Kemp has posted a respectable .740 OPS since the All-Star break but has struck out at a 30.9 percent clip.

Kepler is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

With southpaw Patrick Corbin starting for the Rangers, Kepler will take a seat for the series finale. Weston Wilson will replace Kepler in left field and bat ninth.

Marsh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Marsh will take a seat while Texas sends southpaw Patrick Corbin to the hill. Harrison Bader will replace Marsh in center field and bat sixth.

Frelick is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

After starting the last three games, Frelick will join Christian Yelich and Brice Turang on the bench as Milwaukee leans heavily on right-handed bats to counter Mets southpaw Sean Manaea. Brandon Lockridge will spell Frelick in right field and bat eighth.

Yelich is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Yelich will join Sal Frelick and Brice Turang on the bench as the Brewers roll out a right-handed-heavy lineup to counter Mets southpaw Sean Manaea. William Contreras will get a day off from catching duties and serve as the designated hitter.

Turang is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Though Turang isn't a strict platoon player, he'll take a seat against Mets lefty Sean Manaea as the Brewers go for their ninth straight win Sunday. Andruw Monasterio will step in at second base.

Seigler is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

The switch-hitting Seigler has been seeing more starts against right-handed pitching lately at Caleb Durbin's expense, but Durbin remains the Brewers' clear top option at third base when Milwaukee faces a lefty, such as Mets starter Sean Manaea. Seigler has done little at the plate to earn extra playing time however, batting just .192 (5-for-26) since the All-Star break with zero extra-base hits.
