Peralta (elbow) is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Padres.

Peralta sat out of Monday's series opener versus San Diego after taking a pitch off his left elbow Sunday at Washington, but X-rays turned up negative and he's good to go for the Dodgers on Tuesday night. The 36-year-old will play left field and bat sixth.

Atlanta placed Lee on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with left shoulder inflammation.

Lee was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett following the first half of Monday's doubleheader against the Phillies, but that move has now been voided because he injured his shoulder while pitching in a major-league game. The 29-year-old southpaw is not expected to return to the NL East leaders in 2023.

Tauchman is not in the lineup Tuesday at Colorado.

Pete Crow-Armstrong will start in center field and hit eighth against the Rockies and right-hander Chris Flexen as Christopher Morel occupies the DH role and bats leadoff. Tauchman has gone 2-for-17 with five walks and five strikeouts over his last eight games.

The Cubs recalled Canario from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Canario was just optioned to Iowa on Monday, but he'll return as bench depth for Chicago as Jeimer Candelario (back) heads to the 10-day injured list. Canario drew only one plate appearance during his first 10-day stint in the majors and is not in the lineup Tuesday at Colorado.

The Cubs placed Candelario on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a lower-back strain, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Candelario suffered the injury in Sunday's series finale against the Diamondbacks and will be sidelined until at least a week from Thursday. Nick Madrigal is playing third base Tuesday at Colorado, with Cody Bellinger covering first base and Christopher Morel filling the DH role. Alexander Canario has been recalled from Triple-A Iowa as a depth option off the bench.

Crow-Armstrong will start in center field and bat eighth Tuesday at Colorado, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Crow-Armstrong made his major-league debut off the bench Monday and is now getting his first big-league start as the Cubs take on Rockies right-hander Chris Flexen. The dynamic 21-year-old top outfield prospect slashed .288/.364/.524 versus righties this season in the minors.

Ashby (shoulder) isn't expected to return from the 60-day injured list this season, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The left-hander hasn't suffered a setback in his recovery from the arthroscopic shoulder procedure he underwent in April, but the Brewers want him to focus on building up his arm in the minors over the next few weeks rather than gearing up for a return to the MLB bullpen. Assuming the Brewers don't deviate from that plan, Ashby will continue to make rehab appearances at Double-A Biloxi this week before moving up to Triple-A Nashville, where he'll finish the 2023 campaign. Ashby has resided on the Brewers' IL all season but began his rehab assignment at High-A Wisconsin earlier this month, striking out five and walking five while allowing three runs (two earned) in 3.2 innings over three appearances before moving up to Biloxi.

The Mets recalled Garrett from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

Garrett has allowed 13 earned runs in 12.1 major-league innings this season, but the Mets need a fresh bullpen arm after losing Sean Reid-Foley (lat) to the 15-day injured list.

The Mets placed Reid-Foley on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right lat strain.

Reid-Foley suffered the injury while pitching in relief Monday against the Diamondbacks and seems doubtful to make it back to the Mets' active roster before the end of the season. Reed Garrett is up from Triple-A Syracuse to fill the bullpen vacancy.

Smith was optioned Tuesday to Triple-A Reno, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

Smith went 1-for-7 with three walks and two strikeouts during his 11-day stay with the Diamondbacks and is slashing just .188/.317/.325 across 228 total major-league plate appearances this year. Jake McCarthy has been recalled from Reno in a corresponding move.
