Lewis is not in the lineup for Monday's game in San Francisco.

Lewis has slashed just .183/.207/.243 with one home run and a 4:28 BB:K over his last 30 games to drop his season batting line to .227/.290/.381. Aaron Sabato is starting at first base for the Twins on Monday, and he could continue playing over Lewis at the position during the final week of the regular season.

Jenkins will start in center field and bat leadoff in Monday's contest versus the Giants.

It's the second straight day in the leadoff spot for Jenkins, who had not hit higher than eighth in any starts prior to this two-game stretch. After going 4-for-45 (.089) in his first 16 major-league games, Jenkins is 9-for-17 with a pair of home runs across his last four contests.

The Tigers will recall Jung from Triple-A Toledo prior to Monday's game versus the Nationals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Jung has spent almost all of the 2026 campaign at Toledo, slashing .227/.344/.421 with 22 home runs over 133 contests. The 25-year-old can handle first base, second base and third base, but his playing time in the final week of the regular season will not be assured.

Bregman has been diagnosed with multiple facial fractures after being struck on the left side of the face with a foul ball while on the on-deck circle during Sunday's game versus the Reds, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

The injury will end Bregman's regular season, but he does not need surgery and is hopeful of returning at some point during the postseason. When exactly that return might happen is unclear, but more could be known later this week after the Cubs see how the third baseman progresses. Bregman overcame a slow start to finish with a .262/.352/.452 batting line and 26 home runs over 153 games in his first season with the Cubs. With Bregman out, the Cubs could turn to Pedro Ramirez at third base.

Atlanta president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos said Monday on 680 The Fan that it's "highly likely" Suarez (elbow) will be activated from the 60-day injured list Wednesday or Thursday, Lindsay Crosby of BravesToday.com reports.

Suarez made a rehab appearance with Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday, striking out one in a scoreless inning. It was the veteran reliever's first outing in three months, as he's been slowly working his way back from right elbow inflammation. A healthy Suarez should be a big boost to the Atlanta bullpen, though it's unlikely he'll be available to pitch on back-to-back days for a bit.

Davidson will join the Giants in San Francisco and is likely to be added to the roster before Monday's game against the Twins, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

There's no word on whose roster spot he will take, but Jung Hoo Lee (groin) and Bryce Eldridge (head) are both banged up. Davidson has slashed .290/.361/.527 with 29 home runs, 20 stolen bases and a 53:118 BB:K over 125 games between the Double-A and Triple-A levels this season to earn his first promotion to the big leagues. The 24-year-old outfielder has experience at all three outfield spots but has primarily played center field in the minors.

Cease does not need surgery on his injured right shoulder, but his immediate availability is up in the air, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

An MRI showed inflammation, with Cease saying his shoulder feels a "bit heavy and achy and not normal." In the unlikely event that the Blue Jays squeeze their way into the postseason, the right-hander could eventually return to pitch. However, it's a long shot that he will be back later this week before the curtains close on the regular season. Cease has collected a 2.40 ERA and 239:78 K:BB over 169 innings covering 29 starts in his first year with the Blue Jays.

Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said Monday that it's unlikely Holliday (wrist) will return this season, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Holliday will be eligible for activation from the 10-day injured list later this week, but the Orioles are a safe bet to be officially eliminated from the postseason picture by then. Additionally, the club is still trying to get a better handle on Holliday's left wrist injury, as he will seek out additional opinions before determining a course of action. Holliday will finish his disappointing 2026 campaign with a .229/.300/.340 batting line, seven home runs and eight stolen bases over 98 contests.

Guerrero (back) is absent from the lineup for Monday's game in Baltimore.

Guerrero was lifted from Sunday's 7-2 win over the Rangers because of lower-back tightness, and he's not feeling well enough a day later to return to the lineup. He's considered day-to-day, but with the Blue Jays' playoff hopes fading, Guerrero could be shut down if he doesn't improve in a hurry. Sean Keys will handle first base in Guerrero's stead Monday.

McGonigle is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

McGonigle will receive a rare day of rest after starting each of the previous 14 contests for the Tigers. Detroit will slot in Hao-Yu Lee at third base and John Peck at shortstop in Monday's series opener.
