Rizzo is not in the Yankees' lineup for Tuesday's game in Toronto, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

It's a rare day off for Rizzo in the divisional matchup. DJ LeMahieu will play first base and Isiah Kiner-Falefa will be at third base.

Diaz (groin) is not in the Rays' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Diaz departed Sunday's game against the Yankees with a left groin injury. Tests came back clean and he's considered day-to-day, but he's not ready to play yet even after an off day Monday. Harold Ramirez will be at first base.

Mountcastle is not in the Orioles' lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Angels, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Mountcastle is hitless in his last three games and in a 5-for-30 slide across his last eight contests, so he'll get a day off to regroup. Anthony Santander will play first base Tuesday.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-3 with a double, two walks, two RBI and one run in Monday's 18-1 win over the Brewers.

Goldschmidt has posted four hits across the past two games and has turned in three multi-hit efforts in his last four contests, bringing his season-long batting average up from .306 to .319. Though the Cardinals are still sitting eight games under .500 for the season, the team's struggles don't fall on the shoulders of the reigning National League MVP. His .949 OPS is only 33 behind his mark from 2022, and he's already two stolen bases away from matching last season's total of seven.

France went 2-for-5 with an RBI double and another two-bagger in a win over the Red Sox on Monday.

France joined Cal Raleigh as the only other Mariner with multiple extra-base knocks in Seattle's 15-hit barrage. The high-contact infielder extended his hitting streak to 12 games in the process, a stretch that's seen him pad his batting average 39 points to .277.

Diaz is considered day-to-day after an MRI on his left groin Monday didn't reveal anything serious, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Diaz had to depart Sunday's game versus the Yankees in the first inning when his groin tightened up on him, but he's managed to avoid a serious injury. The expectation is that he should be ready to return to the lineup within the next few days. Diaz has popped 10 home runs and sports a robust 1.022 OPS for Tampa Bay this season.

Bohm went 2-for-3 with a double, a home run and three RBI in Monday's 6-3 loss against the Giants.

Bohm was the only source of offense for the Phillies. He gave Philadelphia the lead with his second-inning homer. Bohm then cut the deficit to three with a sac fly. Bohm is producing again this season with a .278/.345/.430 slash line. The biggest difference for Bohm in 2023 is an improved plate discipline, as he is on his way to setting a career high in walks.

Wade isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Wade will take a seat with southpaw Bailey Falter set to serve as the primary pitcher Monday evening. Wilmer Flores draws the start at first base in Wade's absence.

Hiura has been placed on the 7-day injured list with a PCL injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Hiura has performed well for Triple-A Nashville before the injury with a .331 average, 1.074 OPS and 12 homers in 118 at-bats. The former top prospect will not be able to return to the field until late June at the earliest. Hiura is no longer on the 40-man roster and struggled mightily after showing some success as a rookie, but his strong performance for Nashville as a 26-year-old was encouraging to see prior to the injury.

Walker is not in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Monday's game in Oakland.

It appears to be a regular day off for the slugger. Pavin Smith will fill in for Walker at first base.
