Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Yoshi Tsutsugo will fill in at first base for Diaz, who has fallen into a 5-for-35 slump over his past 11 games. Meanwhile, Tsutsugo is slashing .164/.233/.209 on the season, so he wouldn't appear to be a serious threat to unseat Diaz for an everyday role at this point.

Bell is not in the lineup Sunday against the Marlins, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Bell went 2-for-4 with a double and four RBI in his first multi-hit game of the season Saturday, but he'll take a seat for the series finale with lefty Trevor Rogers on the mound for Miami. Ryan Zimmerman will start at first base and bat cleanup Sunday for the Nationals.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Goldschmidt will head to the bench for only the second time in 28 games this season in what amounts to a maintenance day following a busy Saturday night in which he went 3-for-4 with an RBI single, a double, a walk and four runs. Matt Carpenter will fill in at first base for Goldschmidt, who is batting .234 with three home runs, one steal, 18 runs and 15 RBI across 114 plate appearances.

Bohm went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Mets.

His sixth-inning shot off Taijuan Walker knotted the game at 4-4, but the Phillies couldn't find another run. Bohm is heating up at the plate, going 6-for-15 (.400) over the last four games to raise his slash line on the season to .229/.264/.354 with three homers, two steals, 11 runs and 15 RBI through 27 contests.

Lowe went 1-for-4 with two RBI in Saturday's 8-6 win over Boston.

Lowe delivered a two-out, two-run single in the third inning, upping his RBI total to 24, second in MLB. He's been money with runners in scoring position, batting .462 (12-for-26) in those situations. He is also hitting .395 with two outs in an inning.

Walker (oblique) played five innings in a game Friday at Arizona's alternate site, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Walker came out of the session feeling good, per manager Torey Lovullo, who added the injured first baseman was scheduled to play seven innings Saturday. The Diamondbacks are hoping to have Walker back during the team's upcoming road trip that begins Tuesday.

Naylor went 2-for-4 with a double, a run and a strikeout as Cleveland fell 7-3 to Chicago on Saturday.

Naylor doubled and scored in the fourth in what was Cleveland's best inning, and he later singled in the sixth. He is one of only three Cleveland regulars batting over .215 on the season.

Bell went 2-for-4 with a double and four RBI during Saturday's 7-2 win over the Marlins.

The 28-year-old was 1-for-22 over the previous six games, but he delivered twice with RISP to power the offense Saturday. Bell has a .140/.219/.298 slash line with two homers, two doubles, nine RBI and 12 runs through 16 games this season.

Kirilloff went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and three strikeouts as Minnesota fell 11-3 to Kansas City on Saturday.

Kirilloff followed up Friday night's two-homer performance with a solo shot in the seventh to get Minnesota on the board. The Twins' top prospect played first base and may receive more time there with Miguel Sano on the IL.

Santana went 2-for-4 with a walk, two runs, an RBI and a strikeout in Saturday's 11-3 win over Minnesota.

Santana reached base and scored in each of his first two at-bats and singled in the ninth to round out a solid all-around game. He remains a much stronger option in OBP formats and points leagues due to his on-base abilities.
