Ramos went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's 8-6 loss to the Blue Jays.

Ramos drove in the Giants' first run with an RBI single to left field in the first inning. The 25-year-old outfielder added a double in the seventh, marking his second multi-hit performance over his last three games. Across 62 plate appearances this month, Ramos is slashing .224/.258/.310 with five RBI, two runs scored, two doubles, one home run and a 24.2 percent strikeout rate in 15 outings.

Lee went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-6 loss to the Blue Jays.

Lee knocked a leadoff double to left field before coming around to score San Francisco's first run. He later added an RBI single in the sixth inning, though he was thrown out at second on the play. The 26-year-old outfielder has been productive in July, slashing .306/.340/.440 with seven RBI, four runs scored, three doubles and two triples over 53 plate appearances this month.

Acuna went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Yankees.

The superstar right fielder crushed a Devin Williams changeup 456 feet to center field to lead off the ninth inning, but the rest of Atlanta's bats couldn't add anything to the rally. It's Acuna's 13th homer of the year and fourth in his last eight games, a stretch in which he's batting .303 (10-for-33) with eight total extra-base hits, six RBI and nine runs.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Yankees.

The first baseman took Marcus Stroman deep in the sixth inning to get Atlanta on the board. It was Olson's first long ball since July 5 and his 18th of the season, but he's had a productive month overall, slashing .267/.353/.467 in 15 July games with three homers, eight runs and 12 RBI.

Dunning gave up one run on two hits and a walk over three innings of relief in Sunday's loss to the Yankees. He struck out two.

The veteran righty was acquired from the Rangers to provide a beleaguered Atlanta bullpen with some length, and Dunning did exactly that in his debut for the team. With only two healthy, reliable starters in the rotation in Spencer Strider and Grant Holmes, who took the loss in a quality start Sunday, Dunning figures to see plenty of action over the final months of the season. Through 13.2 big-league innings this season over six relief appearances between Texas and Atlanta, the 30-year-old has a 3.29 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB.

Chapman went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored in Sunday's 8-6 loss to the Blue Jays.

Chapman cut the Giants' deficit to 7-4 in the sixth inning with a two-out, opposite-field blast off Jose Berrios, his 13th homer this season. Chapman would also deliver just his second multi-hit effort in 11 games since returning from the IL -- he'd gone just 2-for-27 (.074) in seven contests prior to Sunday. Overall, the 32-year-old Chapman is slashing .234/.343/.425 with 33 RBI, 44 runs scored and seven steals across 318 plate appearances.

Ozuna said after Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees that he's no longer bothered by the sore hip that was affecting his performance earlier in the season, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports. "It was my hip earlier this season, but now I feel fantastic," Ozuna said. "I just lost my confidence at the plate. I just lost my timing, and that's what I've been battling. As soon as I get my timing back, everything's coming like last year and the year before."

The veteran slugger has lost his regular spot in the starting lineup while Atlanta has been using either Sean Murphy or Drake Baldwin at designated hitter on their non-catching days, and Ozuna's .139/.262/.333 slash line through 42 plate appearances in July, including an 0-for-4 effort Sunday, doesn't make much of a case for him to regain his job. He also acknowledged the trade rumors surrounding him as the team's playoff odds continue to shrink, but Ozuna didn't give any hint as to whether he would use his 10-and-5 rights to veto a potential deal. Until he shows signs of life at the plate, Ozuna's fantasy value and value as a trade asset will both be low.

Moreno will undergo a CT scan this week to check the healing of the hairline fracture in his right index finger, MLB.com reports.

If the scan shows that Moreno has made sufficient progress, he could be allowed to begin some baseball activities. Moreno was moved to the 60-day injured list over the weekend, making him ineligible to return to the Diamondbacks' 26-man active roster until mid-August.

Smith (oblique) was recently cleared to resume taking dry swings, MLB.com reports.

Smith is a little more than two weeks removed from landing on the 10-day injured list due to a right oblique strain and is at the beginning stages of a hitting progression. A timetable for Smith's return to the Diamondbacks' active roster should be available soon as he reaches the point that he's facing live pitching.

Ohtani went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Sunday in a loss to the Brewers.

Ohtani batted second in the lineup for the first time this season, and the move paid off when he followed a Mookie Betts single in the third inning with a two-run blast to left field. The two-way superstar has homered in each of his past two contests and is up to 34 long balls on the campaign, though he's been passed for the NL lead by Eugenio Suarez, who has 35 home runs after going deep four times over the weekend. Suarez is also up on Ohtani by 20 RBI, which is due in part to the latter hitting leadoff throughout the season until Sunday. If Betts can get his bat back on track while taking over in the leadoff role, Ohtani could see more run-scoring opportunities moving forward.
