Schmitt (oblique) has begun baseball activities, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Schmitt is more than two weeks removed from suffering a Grade 2 left oblique strain but has been cleared to start ramping things up. The expectation when Schmitt went down was that he would miss around a month of action, so he's still got a couple weeks go go and will likely require a rehab assignment.

Wade is not in the Giants' starting lineup against the Cubs on Monday.

With the Cubs sending southpaw Matthew Boyd to the mound, the lefty-hitting Wade will begin Monday's game in the dugout while David Villar starts at first base and bats seventh. Wade has gone 7-for-28 with one run scored and four RBI over his last nine games.

Mervis is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

The Dodgers are opening the game with a left-handed pitcher (Jack Dreyer), so the left-handed-hitting Mervis will begin the contest on the bench. He could end up replacing Eric Wagaman at first base or Connor Norby at designated hitter once right-hander Ben Casparius enters the contest to serve as the Dodgers' bulk reliever.

Martinez has not played for Triple-A Nashville since April 22 after injuring his right thumb on a slide, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

He is not on the 7-day injured list, although he has missed almost two weeks worth of action and McCalvy notes that his timetable is to be determined. While Martinez, who turns 26 in June and is in his first season at Triple-A, is older than the typical prospect, he was off to a great start for the Sounds, slashing .303/.390/.485 with three home runs, one steal and an 18.2 percent strikeout rate in 77 plate appearances.

Walker went 2-for-4 with a run scored Sunday against the White Sox.

This wasn't a remarkable performance on the surface, but it marked Walker's fourth multi-hit effort in his last 11 starts. He's gone 12-for-43 in that span, raising his batting average to .200 after an abysmal start to the season. Walker's performance has begun to stabilize, as he also has six extra-base hits with six runs and five RBI in his last 11 games.

Gonzalez started at first base and went 1-for-2 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Minnesota.

Gonzalez started at first base in both games since Triston Casas went down with a season-ending knee injury Friday. Gonzalez is relatively new to the position -- he played 18 games there last season and was part of platoon in 2025 -- and it's unclear if he'll be the permanent fill-in for Casas. He's been consistent all season, hitting safely in nine of 11 starts, and enters Monday's day off with a .327/.382/.449 slash line, three steals, six RBI and 10 runs scored over 16 games.

Contreras went 4-for-8 with a home run and four RBI as the Cardinals swept Sunday's doubleheader versus the Mets.

Contreras had a big performance in the day game, during which he collected three of his hits, including a solo home run and a two-run single. He has posted multiple hits in three of his last six games, going 8-for-20 (.400) with two homers and eight RBI in that span. For the season, he's at a .244/.322/.374 slash line with four homers, 17 RBI, 14 runs scored and two stolen bases over 34 contests as the Cardinals' primary first baseman.

Naylor went 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 11-9 extra-inning win over the Phillies.

Naylor knocked in the tie-breaking run in the top of the 10th inning, then scored the eventual game-winning run. He's been a consistent contributor for the Diamondbacks since Opening Day, never going more than one game without reaching base safely. Naylor has a .304/.380/.472 line with six steals, four home runs, 20 RBI and 16 runs scored. From an offensive production standpoint, Arizona has not missed Christian Walker.

Aranda went 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two walks in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Yankees.

Aranda crushed a 409-foot solo shot in the third inning and later chipped in a two-run single in the seventh. While his platoon role caps his overall upside, the 26-year-old has torched righties this season, slashing a remarkable .350/.430/.650 with five homers and 17 RBI over 93 plate appearances.

Pasquantino went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Sunday's 11-6 win over the Orioles.

Pasquantino fell a triple short of the cycle Sunday, highlighted by a solo homer in the seventh inning. The first baseman has been heating up over his past 10 games, slugging four home runs with eight RBI and seven runs scored. While his overall slash line remains underwhelming at .197/.252/.386 across 143 plate appearances, he's provided some pop with six long balls and 22 RBI on the year.
