Albies went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run during Atlanta's 4-0 win over the Mets on Tuesday.

Albies opened Tuesday's scoring with a solo homer off Nolan McLean in the fifth inning. It was Albies' sixth home run since the All-Star break and 20th of the year, marking the first time he's recorded at least 20 homers in a season since 2023 (33) and the fifth time in his major-league career. He has a .751 OPS with two steals and 64 RBI across 515 plate appearances on the year.

Olson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during Atlanta's 4-0 win over the Mets on Tuesday.

Olson doubled Atlanta's lead in the eighth inning when he took Chayce McDermott deep to right field for a 423-foot, two-run homer. It continues a hot stretch at the plate for Olson, who has eight long balls over his last 14 games and is up 35 home runs on the year. Not only is that now tied with Kyle Schwarber and Yordan Alvarez for most in the majors, but it is the third time in Olson's big-league career that he's recorded at least 35 homers in a season. Olson also ranks fourth in the majors this season in slugging percentage (.554) and ninth in OPS (.897) over 525 plate appearances.

Perez (8-6) earned the win against the Mets on Tuesday, allowing four hits and three walks while striking out two across six scoreless innings.

Perez allowed at least one baserunner in five of the six innings he pitched Tuesday, but the only time the Mets advanced a runner to third base was in the sixth, which ended with a 4-6-3 double play. Perez has now tossed 16 straight scoreless innings spanning three starts and sits at a 2.96 ERA and 1.15 WHIP over 106.1 innings this season. His next start is lined up for next week on the road against the Twins in what projects to be a two-start week for the veteran southpaw.

Pratt (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list sometime in late August, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Pratt is making good progress in his recovery from a strained right hamstring, but he's still likely multiple weeks out from returning to the starting lineup. With Joey Ortiz (back) also dealing with an injury, David Hamilton and Ji Hwan Bae have seen an increase in playing time recently.

Glasnow (back) will make another minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Glasnow is set to be stretched out to roughly four innings and/or 60 total pitches in the outing as the Dodgers continue to slowly ease him back into a full workload. The right-hander is then expected to throw one more rehab start following Friday's outing before Los Angeles would consider activating him from the 60-day injured list. Glasnow has been sidelined since May 8 while recovering from lower back spasms, and he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster before the end of August.

Gallen (elbow) completed a 33-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Gallen was able to complete the throwing session without any issues, successfully taking the next step in his recovery from right elbow inflammation. The right-hander isn't eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list until Sept. 7, so Gallen could throw another bullpen session or two before moving on to facing live hitters and eventually heading out on a rehab assignment.

Burnes (elbow/shoulder) threw a 30-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Burnes has been sidelined for the entirety of the 2026 campaign while recovering from June 2025 Tommy John surgery and a teres major strain, the latter of which resulted in him being shut down from throwing in early June. The right-hander has been throwing bullpen sessions for approximately two weeks and looks to be on track for a return from the 60-day injured list in early September.

Treinen (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Treinen has been on the injured list since June 20 while recovering from right elbow inflammation, and he was able to face live hitters July 29. The 38-year-old will still be eligible to be activated from the IL late next week, though he will likely require a multi-outing minor-league rehab assignment, making a return in late August or early September more likely. In a corresponding move, Blake Snell (elbow) was activated from the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

The Dodgers optioned Barnes to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Barnes was brought up to the big club Monday, but he'll now be pushed off the active roster without making an appearance for the Dodgers to make room for Blake Snell (elbow), who returned from the IL to start Tuesday's game against Kansas City. Barnes has given up 10 runs in 13 major-league innings this season but could return to Los Angeles down the stretch to provide a fresh bullpen arm.

Snell (elbow) was activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his start Tuesday night against the Royals.

Snell will officially make his return to action with the Dodgers after missing nearly three months while recovering from a procedure to remove loose bodies from his left elbow. The southpaw has made just one start with Los Angeles this season, surrendering five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters over three innings May 9 versus Atlanta. Snell was able to build up to 73 total pitches in his final minor-league rehab start Aug. 4 with Triple-A Oklahoma City, so he will likely be able to handle a somewhat regular workload against Kansas City.
