Naylor went 3-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Blue Jays.

Naylor provided all the offense Cleveland was able to muster in this one, as he took Ross Stripling deep in the fifth inning for his fifth long ball of the campaign. The right fielder is trying to bounce back from an ugly stretch, as he entered this game with just one hit over his previous 16 at-bats.

Kirilloff went 3-for-4 with three singles and a walk in Sunday's 6-3 loss to Kansas City.

Despite a productive day at the plate, Kirilloff didn't get involved in any run-scoring plays. He produced three of Minnesota's five hits in the game, although the team also drew seven walks. The outfielder is slashing .256/.289/.474 with four home runs, 15 RBI, 12 runs scored and no stolen bases in 83 plate appearances this year. He's mainly hitting between third and fifth in the order, which should put him in a good position to get involved on offense.

Alonso (hand) is expected to be activated from the injured list for Sunday's game versus Atlanta, or Monday should the game be postponed, Buster Olney of ESPN reports.

The 26-year-old didn't return from the injured list when first eligible Saturday, but he should be back in the lineup a day or two later. Alonso has been taking grounders and hitting off a pitching machine over the past few days and won't require a rehab assignment given his short time on the shelf.

White (hip) resumed taking swings this weekend but isn't ready for a rehab assignment, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

The 25-year-old resumed baseball activities Thursday and has progressed to making swings, but he needs to ramp up his work a bit more before embarking on a rehab assignment. White doesn't have an official timeline for his return but shouldn't be expected to be activated until at least the second week of June.

Cronenworth is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Cronenworth will get a rare day off. Newly recalled Tucupita Marcano will get the start at the keystone.

Wade went 1-for-2 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 11-6 win over the Dodgers.

Wade pinch hit for Wilmer Flores in the seventh inning and the former stayed in the game at first base after singling, stealing second and scoring in the plate appearance. The 27-year-old Wade is 5-for-15 with a double, a stolen base, one RBI and three runs scored in seven games this season. He's likely to split time with Flores at first base while Brandon Belt (oblique) is out.

Flores (hamstring) went 3-for-3 with an RBI single and two runs scored in Saturday's 11-6 win over the Dodgers.

Flores had a minimum stay on the injured list, and he was productive while playing six innings in his return. The infielder is slashing .241/.325/.361 with three home runs, 15 RBI, 14 runs scored and a stolen base through 123 plate appearances. With Brandon Belt (oblique) and Darin Ruf (hamstring) out, Flores is likely to split time with LaMonte Wade at first base.

Solano went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, two additional runs scored and a walk in Saturday's 11-6 win over the Dodgers.

Solano cranked a two-run home run off Julio Urias in the third inning to extend the Giants' lead. Long balls are rare for the 33-year-old -- he has never hit more than four homers in any season of his career. Both of his home runs this season have come in the last three games against the Dodgers. He is slashing .269/.302/.410 in 86 plate appearances overall.

Mountcastle is out of the lineup Sunday against the White Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Mountcastle missed a few games due to a hand injury before rejoining the lineup for Saturday's doubleheader, and he went 1-for-6 a triple, a run and five strikeouts across the twin bill. Trey Mancini (elbow) will serve as the designated hitter while Tyler Nevin starts at first base Sunday.

Gurriel (finger) is not in the lineup Sunday against the Padres, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

The 36-year-old was scratched from Saturday's lineup with left middle finger inflammation, and he remains absent from Sunday's starting nine. It's unclear if Gurriel will be available off the bench for the series finale.
