Edman isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins.

Edman has gone 3-for-13 with a homer and two runs scored in four games since the All-Star break. He'll get a breather Tuesday while Hyeseong Kim starts at second base and Miguel Rojas covers third.

Burleson (foot) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Burleson will require an extra day of recovery after he fouled a ball off his right foot during Monday's contest. Jordan Walker will pick up a start in right field as a result and bat seventh.

Gordon is expected to be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Wednesday versus the Cardinals at Coors Field, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Gordon is set to join the rotation as a replacement for German Marquez (biceps), who is headed to the 15-day injured list. The 27-year-old righty has previously made three starts for Colorado this season, logging a 4.24 ERA and 1.35 WHIP in 17 innings.

Marquez said Tuesday that he has been diagnosed with right biceps tendon inflammation and is likely to land on the injured list, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Marquez sustained the injury in his start in Sunday's loss to the Twins. The Rockies haven't provided a timeline for Marquez's return, but he'll likely be out for longer than the minimum 15 days. The Rockies plan to recall Tanner Gordon from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday to replace Marquez on the 26-man active roster and in the rotation.

Cortes (elbow) is scheduled to make his next rehab appearance Thursday and is expected to throw around 90 pitches, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Cortes has thus far made three rehab appearances between High-A Wisconsin and Triple-A Nashville, covering 12.1 innings in total and striking out nine while allowing one run on six hits and two walks. Assuming he checks out fine physically following Thursday's outing, Cortes will likely be cleared to return from the 60-day injured list next week. Though all five of the Brewers' starting pitchers are pitching effectively at the moment, Milwaukee could expand to a six-man rotation in order to accommodate Cortes' return.

The Phillies recalled Rangel from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Since his demotion to Triple-A in late June, Rangel has posted a 3.86 ERA and 1.35 WHIP alongside a 17:8 K:BB through 16.1 innings. He'll now rejoin the Phillies' pitching staff as a replacement for the injured Joe Ross (back) and presumably take on a long-relief role.

The Phillies placed Ross on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with back spasms, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Ross has appeared in four games this month, giving up four earned runs over 6.1 innings while striking out five batters and walking two. He'll now remain sidelined until at least Aug. 6, and the Phillies will recall Alan Rangel from Triple-A to fill the open spot in their bullpen.

The Brewers sent Zastryzny (ribs) to Triple-A Nashville to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Zastryzny has been on IL for the entirety of the month due to a ribs stress reaction. With his rehab assignment imminent, he may have a chance to be activated before the end of July.

Thomas had surgery Wednesday to remove bone spurs and repair his UCL with an internal-brace procedure, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Thomas is likely looking at a return timeline of the first half of the 2026 season in a best-case scenario. The Rule 5 draft pick made just two appearances -- the first of his MLB career -- before being shut down, allowing 12 earned runs on 12 hits over 5.1 innings.

Bauers received a cortisone injection for his shoulder over the All-Star break, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Bauers will continue to receive treatment on his shoulder and sees mid-August as a possible return window. He had been going through some struggles at the plate before being placed on the IL, which may have been the result of playing through the shoulder discomfort that has sidelined him.
