Santana was traded to the Brewers on Thursday in exchange for Jhonny Severino, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Santana is well past his prime at age 37, but he was sporting a decent .723 OPS with 12 home runs and 53 RBI through 94 games this season for the Pirates, who signed him to a one-year, $6.73 million contract over the winter and have now flipped him into a promising young shortstop prospect. Brewers first basemen have posted a combined .212/.272/.340 batting line this year, so Santana represents an upgrade at the position for Milwaukee. He can also cycle in at designated hitter.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 11-7 win over the Diamondbacks.

Goldschmidt went 4-for-12 with a pair of homers and five RBI during the Cardinals' three-game set in his old stomping grounds in Arizona. That productive stretch doubled his homer total for July. The first baseman is slashing .285/.373/.477 with 18 long balls, 55 RBI, 64 runs scored, 21 doubles and nine stolen bases through 99 contests.

Toglia went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Wednesday against the Nationals.

Toglia has gotten five consecutive starts at first base with C.J. Cron (back) sidelined. He's now collected hits in each of his last three games while tallying a double, a homer, three RBI and three runs scored. Cron is expected back Friday, so Toglia's playing time in the short term will likely dry up, but he could see more run across the final two months of the campaign depending on the Rockies' moves at the trade deadline.

Santana went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Padres.

All three Pittsburgh runs came on solo shots, but it was Santana's blast in the top of the ninth inning off Robert Suarez that proves to be the difference-maker. The 37-year-old switch hitter has been productive since the All-Star break, slashing .250/.388/.575 with four doubles, three homers and eight RBI in 12 games.

Montero went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's loss to the Nationals.

Montero jumped on a hanging curveball from Jake Irvin in his first at-bat of the contest and sent it into the stands in left field, scoring Harold Castro as the Rockies took a 2-0 lead. The 24-year-old third baseman would then go down on strikes in each of his next three plate appearances as Colorado fell to the Nationals in dramatic fashion. It was certainly a nice start for Montero in his return to the lineup after being promoted from Triple-A, though he's now struck out seven times over his last three games in the big leagues.

Walker went 3-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 11-7 loss to the Cardinals.

Walker's ninth-inning, two-run homer was the first baseman's second in three games. The first half of July was not kind to Walker (4-for-40), but he's turned it around in the second half. Walker's hit safely in seven of the last nine games, going 13-for-34 (.382) with four doubles, four home runs, nine RBI and nine runs scored during that stretch. His 22 home runs and 67 RBI lead the Diamondbacks.

Steer is not in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Brewers.

Steer will get a breather after he went 1-for-7 with a run scored over the first two games in Milwaukee. Christian Encarnacion-Strand will take over at first base and bat seventh in the series finale with the Brewers.

Cooper is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

After sitting out Sunday's series finale with the Rockies due to an illness, Cooper returned to the lineup for Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Tampa Bay, going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. Cooper isn't believed to be dealing with any health-related setbacks, so his absence from the lineup Wednesday is likely just a byproduct of the Marlins playing a day game after a night game.

Toglia will start at first base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

He'll stick in the lineup for a fifth consecutive game, manning first base once again while C.J. Cron (back) remains out of the lineup. Over the previous four games, Toglia went 3-for-16 with a double, two runs and two RBI. Cron has said that he expects to return to the lineup Friday versus Oakland, so Toglia could soon be headed back into a reserve role.

Alonso went 3-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and five RBI in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Yankees.

The first baseman ended a 12-game power drought by taking Domingo German deep in the third and sixth innings. Alonso began July by slashing .114/.286/.273 through his first 13 contests on the month, but he's now hit safely in five straight while batting .474 (9-for-19) with five extra-base hits including two doubles and a triple. If the Mets are looking for excuses not to blow up the roster at the trade deadline, a return to form for Alonso could provide them with one.
