Freeman went 2-for-4 with three RBI, a run scored and a walk in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Philadelphia.

Freeman got Atlanta on the board with a two-RBI double in the third inning, and he later scored on a Marcell Ozuna single. In the ninth, Freeman ripped another double to left-center field to score one run, but Dansby Swanson was thrown out at the plate to end the game. The 30-year-old Freeman is batting .302/.427/.542 with four homers, 17 RBI and 22 runs scored through 28 games.

Hoskins went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 5-4 win over Atlanta.

He's reached base safely in 19 straight contests, helping him post a walk rate of 20.8 percent this season, but Hoskins is also striking out at a 23.8 percent clip.

Bohm went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Sunday's 5-4 win over Atlanta.

Bohm opened the scoring with his solo shot in the second inning, which was his first homer of the year. The third baseman also got on with a single in the fourth and came around to score on an Andrew McCutchen single. Bohm has recorded multiple hits in four of his last seven games, going 9-for-22 (.409) in that span. He's batting .344 with four RBI and six runs scored in 39 plate appearances this year.

Solano is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Solano started the first two games of the series but will take a seat after going 1-for-8 with one RBI and one walk. Wilmer Flores starts at the keystone Sunday while Pablo Sandoval serves as the designated hitter.

Cabrera is out of the lineup Sunday against the Marlins.

Cabrera started the past 14 games and had a .888 OPS with four homers during that stretch, so he'll receive a well-earned day off. Carter Kieboom receives the start at the hot corner Sunday for the Nationals.

Bell is out of the lineup Sunday against the Brewers.

Bell started the past 14 games and had a .578 OPS and 29 percent strikeout rate during that stretch, but he'll take a seat for Sunday's series finale. Colin Moran will cover first base while Gregory Polanco serves as the designated hitter.

Cronenworth went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and two additional runs scored in a 13-2 victory over Houston on Saturday.

A day after San Diego's major-league record of four straight games with a grand slam came to an end, Cronenworth started a new streak with a bases-clearing homer in the second inning. The long ball was part of a career night for the rookie, who established big-league highs with three hits and four RBI in the rout. Cronenworth also extended his hitting streak to seven games, a span in which he has gone 11-for-26 (.423).

Hiura went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and a walk during Saturday's 12-5 loss to the Pirates.

The Brewers didn't have much going for them Saturday offensively, but the 24-year-old capitalized with a pair of runners on base during the seventh inning. Hiura has a .240/.306/.470 slash line with seven home runs and 16 RBI, and he also has a 34.2 percent strikeout rate.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-1 with three walks in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Reds.

Goldschmidt wasn't able to directly contribute to the offense, but he did his part to keep the line moving in all four of his plate appearances. The first baseman is slashing .347/.492/.490 with two homers, five RBI and nine runs scored in 15 games this season.

Naylor is out of the lineup Saturday against the Astros.

The 23-year-old was recalled from the alternate training site last weekend but hasn't seen consistent playing time in the absence of Tommy Pham (hand), as he's started only two of six games. Naylor has a .308/.357/.385 slash line through 28 plate appearances.
