Perdomo (ankle) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

It's not a major surprise the 26-year-old is on the bench Sunday after he suffered a left ankle sprain during Saturday's contest. However, it may be a brief absence given that manager Torey Lovullo said he doesn't expect Perdomo to require a trip to the injured list, per Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic. Jose Fernandez is filling in at shortstop Sunday while Tim Tawa replaces Perdomo in the lineup.

Garcia (elbow) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

The 26-year-old will sit for a third straight game after exiting Wednesday's contest due to right elbow cramps. Garcia was expected to rejoin the lineup Friday, then Saturday, before ultimately sitting out both times, but there's been no indication yet he made need an IL stint. The Royals have a team day off Monday, so Garcia will get an extra day to recover ahead of Tuesday's series opener against the A's.

Adames is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

It's the first day off this season for Adames, who has gone 1-for-27 with 13 strikeouts over the past six contests. Christian Koss will step in at shortstop while Jung Hoo Lee moves up to the leadoff spot.

The Cubs placed Martin on the 15-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to April 24, due to left elbow inflammation.

Martin has been an effective bullpen piece this season with a 2.16 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 10:2 K:BB over 8.1 innings, but he's now the latest in a long line of Cubs relievers to go down with an injury. The left-hander will be eligible to be reinstated May 9, but it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.

The Angels placed O'Hoppe on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left wrist fracture.

O'Hoppe departed Saturday's game against the Royals after being struck by a foul tip behind the plate. The 26-year-old is without an official timeline for his return, but it seems likely he'll be sidelined beyond the 10-day minimum. Travis d'Arnaud should step in as the Halos' primary catcher while O'Hoppe is on the shelf. Sebastian Rivero was called up Sunday to take over the backup job.

The Rockies recalled Castano from Triple-A Albuquerque to serve as the 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Castano was claimed off waivers from Seattle on Tuesday and will now receive his first look in the majors with his new organization. The right-hander has allowed one earned run over 7.1 innings at Triple-A between Albuquerque and Tacoma.

The Mets recalled Warren from Triple-A Syracuse to serve as the 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Rockies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Warren was demoted to Syracuse on Thursday but will briefly rejoin the big club for the doubleheader. The right-hander has given up an earned run with a 4:0 K:BB across 1.2 frames in his two outings with the Mets this year.

The Nationals recalled Granillo from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.

The right-hander opened the campaign in Washington's bullpen but was demoted in early April after giving up six earned runs in his first five outings of the season. Granillo also struggled at Rochester with an 18.00 ERA and 6:6 K:BB over five innings, so he may not be up in the majors for long.

The Nationals recalled Schultz from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.

The right-hander was sent to Rochester last weekend but will quickly rejoin the big club with Clayton Beeter (forearm) landing on the injured list. Schultz has given up four earned runs with a 7:1 K:BB over eight MLB innings this season and should fill a low-leverage relief role while up with the Nationals.

Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers

Lowe went 2-for-9 with a double, a run and three strikeouts in the first two games of the series and will hit the bench for the finale. It's likely just a maintenance day for Lowe with a lefty starter (Kyle Harrison) taking the mound for Milwaukee.
