The Padres placed Adam (quad) on the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Adam was diagnosed with a ruptured tendon in his left quadriceps after being carted off the field during Monday's game against Baltimore. Although the Padres haven't offered an official timeline, the 34-year-old's injury will likely end his season. Alek Jacob was recalled from Triple-A to help replenish San Diego's bullpen depth.

Trout was scratched from the lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Royals due to a skin infection.

Trout's infection will prevent him from starting Tuesday, and it's currently unclear if his absence will extend further into the Angels' series against Kansas City. Jo Adell will fill in as the Halos' designated hitter while Trout sits, opening up right field for Chris Taylor.

Scherzer (back) is feeling better and is on track to make his regular turn through the rotation Saturday against the Yankees, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The 41-year-old surrendered four runs over four innings Sunday versus the Brewers while pitching through upper-back tightness, but he's been able to go through his regular between-starts routine the past couple days. Assuming Scherzer has no further issues, he should be ready to go for Saturday's divisional matchup.

Duran is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

It's the second straight game on the bench for Duran following three consecutive starts. Cody Freeman is receiving another start at second base while batting sixth.

Garcia (quadriceps) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Garcia will be absent from the starting nine for at least one game after suffering the quadriceps injury during Monday's win in Arizona. The 32-year-old outfielder should be considered day-to-day heading into Wednesday's series finale.

O'Hearn isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Baltimore, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

O'Hearn will get a day to rest Tuesday after going 11-for-40 (.275) with an RBI and five runs scored across his last 10 contests. His absence will allow Gavin Sheets to serve as San Diego's designated hitter while batting fourth.

Iglesias isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Iglesias has been filling in for Xander Bogaerts (foot) at shortstop recently, but the former will get a day off Tuesday while Mason McCoy starts and bats eighth.

Tatis (lower body) will start in right field and bat leadoff Tuesday against the Orioles, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Lower-half tightness caused Tatis to be a late scratch from Monday's lineup, but a day of rest has him feeling better and ready to play Tuesday. The 26-year-old has been less productive than usual recently, slashing .231/.348/.385 with five RBI and seven runs scored across his last 10 games.

Burnes (elbow) is scheduled to throw a live batting practice session Tuesday and will throw another later in the week, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

The right-hander is working his way back from an elbow strain and appears to be on the cusp of returning to game action. If Burns comes out of his two sessions this week with no issues, and he could then head out on a rehab assignment before potentially rejoining the Reds in the second half of September.

Cruz is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

Cruz has gone 3-for-19 with four walks and a homer in six games since coming off the injured list last week, and he'll take a seat for Tuesday's series opener versus Los Angeles. Alexander Canario will instead start in center field and bat sixth versus Dodgers lefty Clayton Kershaw.
