Burns (0-1) took the loss after throwing just 0.1 innings, allowing seven runs (five earned) on five hits and two walks, during Monday's 13-6 loss to the Red Sox.

Burns had a tough go of things during his second career start. In a bit of a reversal from his first outing, in which he struck out the first five batters he faced, the rookie right-hander got tagged for seven runs in the first inning, and he lasted just 33 pitches and one out before his evening came to a close. With Hunter Greene (groin/back) still on the shelf, the 22-year-old is likely to stick and make at least one more start, but he will need to have a short memory with the NL East-leading Phillies looming next.

Stott went 1-for-3 with a steal, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 4-0 win versus the Padres.

Stott swiped his second base of the month when he took second off San Diego starter Matt Waldron in the fourth. June was tough for the Philadelphia second baseman, as he entered this contest with an anemic .210/.289/.272 slash line over 90 plate appearances. Perhaps this stolen base, his first since June 18, can kickstart Stott, who now sports a .244 average, five homers, 36 runs scored and 35 RBI while going 13-for-16 on steal attempts across 77 games.

Bohm went 1-for-3 with a walk in Monday's 4-0 victory over the Padres.

Bohm wraps up a productive month of June on a modest four-game hitting streak. Through his last 27 outings, the corner infielder is batting .301 with two home runs, four doubles, 16 RBI and one stolen base covering 103 at-bats. Bohm has been swinging a hot bat since the beginning of May as well, slashing .312/.359/.454 with seven homers, eight doubles and 29 RBI over his last 54 contests (223 plate appearances).

Castellanos went 1-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in Monday's 4-0 victory over the Padres.

The Philadelphia outfielder extended his team's lead to 4-0 when he hit a 372-foot solo shot off San Diego starter Matt Waldron in the fifth. This marks Castellanos' 12th consecutive season with double-digit homers, with the only season he didn't reach the plateau being his 11-game cup of coffee in 2013. Through 345 total plate appearances, the 33-year-old is slashing .282/.325/.451 with 45 RBI and 38 runs scored across 84 games.

Waldron (0-1) suffered the loss in Monday's contest at Philadelphia, conceding four runs on six hits and six walks over 4.2 innings with three strikeouts.

Waldron's season debut was absolutely disastrous, as the knuckleballer issued a career-worst six free passes (his previous worst was four). Despite the avalanche of walks, the San Diego right-hander managed to limit the Phillies lineup to just one extra-base hit -- a Nick Castellanos solo homer in the fifth -- across his 104 pitches. Waldron hadn't been particularly sharp before his callup, pitching to a 5.04 ERA across 30.1 frames in two minor-league stops, but he could stay with the big-league team, as San Diego starting pitchers Ryan Bergert (forearm), Yu Darvish (elbow), Michael King (shoulder), and Joe Musgrove (elbow) are all on the injured list. If Waldron continues to stick in the rotation, his next turn is scheduled to come against the Rangers at home this weekend.

Wheeler (8-3) earned the win in Monday's game against San Diego, allowing six hits and no walks over eight scoreless innings. He struck out 10.

The veteran right-hander notched his third double-digit K performance of the season -- his first since April 18 vs. Miami -- as he generated an impressive 19 whiffs out of his 107 total pitches. Wheeler scattered five singles and yielded just one extra-base hit -- a Xander Bogaerts double in second. With this effort, Wheeler wrapped a masterful month, pitching to a 0.58 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 42:7 K:BB in 31 June innings. The 35-year-old currently lines up to make his first July start against the Reds at home this weekend.

The Rockies are expected to place Goodman (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Christian Saez of TheDNVR.com reports.

Goodman hasn't played since June 25, and his hamstring hasn't responded to the time off, necessitating the upcoming move to the injured list. With Goodman heading to the shelf, the Rockies are expected to call up Austin Nola from Triple-A Albuquerque to add depth behind the plate. Goodman has been one of Colorado's top offensive producers this season, slashing .287/.332/.512 with 14 home runs, 48 RBI, 40 runs scored and one stolen base across 310 plate appearances. Braxton Fulford and Nola will handle catching duties for the Rockies while Goodman is out.

Wisely is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Wisely went 3-for-12 with a double, three walks and two RBI while starting each of the Giants' last four games at second base, but he'll hit the bench in Monday's series opener. Though Casey Schmitt (wrist) joined Matt Chapman (hand) on the injured list Monday to open up an everyday role at third base for Christian Koss, Wisely's playing time at the keystone could be threatened by the arrival of Tyler Fitzgerald, who was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento. Fitzgerald will get the start at second base Monday and will bat seventh.

Chapman (hand) may be able to return to action ahead of the Giants' six-game homestand beginning July 7 versus the Phillies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Chapman took batting practice Monday, after which manager Bob Melvin said it's possible that the third baseman could be available for the entirety of San Francisco's upcoming homestand. Chapman has been out since June 8 due to a right hand sprain, and he seems to be on track to return prior to the All-Star break.

Yastrzemski is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Arizona.

Yastrzemski will break a streak of 13 consecutive starts Monday, ceding his spot in right field to Daniel Johnson. In his last 18 games, Yastrzemski is slashing .290/.375/.452 with a pair of home runs.
