Alonso went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two walks and two total runs in Monday's 7-2 win over the Nationals.

Alonso reached base four times in the contest, the fifth time he has accomplished that feat this season. The All-Star first baseman hit his 27th homer of the campaign in the third inning, taking Patrick Corbin deep to left field. Alonso has been on a roll since the All-Star break, batting .438 (14-for-32) with three homers, eight RBI and a 6:2 BB:K through nine contests.

Rizzo went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 7-2 victory versus the Mariners.

Rizzo gave the Yankees an early lead with his three-run home run in the first inning. This was the veteran's third straight game with a long ball and his second consecutive contest with three RBI. Rizzo is tied for sixth in the majors with 26 homers on the season.

Flores went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-2 loss to the Dodgers.

Flores' fifth-inning blast was the Giants' lone extra-base hit in the contest. He's gone yard three times in his last six games, and he's up to 16 homers this year. The infielder has added a .251/.330/.455 slash line with 56 RBI, 54 runs scored and 20 doubles through 97 games. With both Thairo Estrada (concussion) and Brandon Crawford (knee) out, Flores should be an everyday player at second base for the foreseeable future.

Freeman went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 8-2 win over the Giants.

Freeman has multiple hits in three straight games, and he's gone 8-for-14 in that span. The first baseman provided a pair of RBI singles in addition to his double Monday. For the season, he's up to a remarkable .328/.404/.541 slash line with 15 home runs, 68 RBI, 72 runs scored, 36 doubles and nine stolen bases through 102 contests.

Kirilloff (wrist) isn't starting Monday against the Tigers.

Kirilloff was removed from Saturday's matchup against San Diego due to right wrist soreness, and he'll be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. Kyle Garlick will take over in left field and bat fifth.

Naylor (ankle) is starting Monday against the Diamondbacks.

Naylor was out of the lineup for the last three games due to a sore right ankle, but he'll serve as the designated hitter and bat cleanup Monday. Over his eight games since the All-Star break, he's hit .344 with a homer, four doubles, six RBI, four runs and a stolen base.

Rizzo went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in a loss to the Royals on Sunday.

Rizzo's three-run blast in the seventh inning looked to be a game-changer, as it gave New York its first lead of the contest. However, the Royals bounced back for four runs over the final two frames to claim the victory. Rizzo's long ball was his third over his past five games after he had failed to go deep across his previous 15 contests. The veteran is up to 25 homers on the season, the first time he has reached that mark since he hit 27 homers with the Cubs in 2019.

France (wrist) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

An MRI performed on France's injured wrist revealed no structural damage, but he is not ready to get back on the field just yet. He could do so before the Mariners wrap up their three-game set in New York, though.

Bohm went 4-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and three runs scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Pirates.

Bohm doubled and scored in the first inning and crossed home again in the fifth. He then capped off his huge day with a solo shot off of Dillon Peters in the sixth. The hot-hitting infielder went 33-for-76 (.434) with 15 runs scored and eight extra-base hits in 20 games this month. Bohm boosted his season slash line to .299/.331/.415 through 94 games.

Beaty (shoulder) resumed his rehab assignment at Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday and has gone 2-for-11 with a walk and two runs while playing in games four of the past five days.

Beaty, who has been on the Padres' injured list since early May with a left shoulder impingement, is in the midst of his third separate rehab assignment following a recent two-and-a-half-week hiatus. Whenever he's finally activated from the 60-day IL, Beaty will likely handle a limited role off San Diego's bench.
