Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that Chisholm (head) will not be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Tigers.

Chisholm was forced from Monday's contest after taking an elbow to the head from teammate Jasson Dominguez while the two were chasing a popup. He was placed in concussion protocol and is still being evaluated. Boone added he hopes Chisholm will be available off the bench Tuesday, though the skipper is still waiting on an update from the team's medical staff.

Seigler started at second base and went 2-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 win over Washington.

Seigler made a seventh consecutive start Monday and has hit safely in all seven. He's 11-for-23 with three doubles, a home run, three RBI, one steal and five runs during the streak. Injuries to Trevor Story (abdomen) and Marcelo Mayer (forearm) have created an opportunity for Seigler.

Lopez started at shortstop and went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's 6-3 win over the Guardians.

Lopez covered shortstop Monday while Corey Seager receiving a planned maintenance day. When Seager is back in the lineup, Lopez could end up seeing most of his reps at second base. That said, Lopez will have to fend off Ezequiel Duran for playing time at that position if Duran isn't needed in the outfield while Brandon Nimmo (shoulder) appears to be at risk of joining Wyatt Langford (hamstring) on the injured list.

Kuroda-Grauer went 3-for-4 with a double, one RBI and one run scored in Monday's 9-4 loss to the Dodgers.

Kuroda-Grauer got the start at second base in his big-league debut, and he delivered one of the Athletics' best performances in the game. The infielder should at least get steady playing time against left-handed pitchers -- he should fill a platoon role at second base alongside Jeff McNeil at a minimum. Kuroda-Grauer could also push fellow right-handed hitters Alika Williams and Darell Hernaiz for time at shortstop until Jacob Wilson (thumb) returns. If Kuroda-Grauer can claim a decent share of playing time, there's fantasy upside to be had with his speed.

Young went 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs and three total RBI in Monday's 6-2 win over the Angels.

Young logged his second multi-hit effort in a row and the first multi-homer game of his career. He's had a lively bat in June, clubbing five of his nine homers on the season this month while batting .294 (30-for-102) over 26 games. For the season, he's hitting .260 with a .713 OPS, 40 RBI, 37 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases across 86 contests.

Lee went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 7-3 win over the Yankees.

Lee is starting to trend upward, as he's now batting .356 over his last 15 games, and he's tallied five multi-hit performances during that time. The rookie is getting an extended look at second base with Gleyber Torres (oblique) on the injured list. Lee should return to the bench or possibly Triple-A Toledo once Torres is healthy, but for now, Lee is worth a look in deeper formats as long as he stays hot, and his dynasty value seems to be increasing as well.

The Yankees announced that Chisholm has been placed in concussion protocol after exiting Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning following a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez.

He struck out in his lone at-bat before leaving the game. The Yankees haven't confirmed that Chisholm sustained a concussion, but he'll need to pass all the steps of the league's protocol before returning to the diamond. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to replace Chisholm at second base Monday, though Amed Rosario and Jose Caballero could also factor into the mix for playing time at the position if Chisholm misses additional time.

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

With a lefty (Eric Lauer) on the bump for the Dodgers, the left-handed-hitting McNeil will be given a break after he started in each of the Athletics' last five games. Joshua Kuroda-Grauer will replace McNeil at second base and will bat ninth.

Chisholm was removed from Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning after a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. He struck out in his lone plate appearance before leaving the game.

Chisholm was down on the ground for a while following the collision and then was evaluated by team trainers while he was taking a knee. He appeared to be getting checked for a concussion after his head made contact with Dominguez's elbow. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to step in at second base in place of Chisholm, who can be viewed as day-to-day until the Yankees provide an update on the nature of his injury.

Donovan (groin) ran sprints on the field Monday and will be re-evaluated after the Mariners' homestand to determine whether he's ready to begin a rehab assignment, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

The Mariners' homestand runs through Sunday, so Donovan is at least a week from playing in games. That timeline seemingly rules him out for a return before the All-Star break, though he could conceivably be ready for the start of the second half if all goes well. Donovan has been limited to just 25 games this season due to a recurring groin injury.
