San Francisco transferred Mathis (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Mathis was diagnosed with a right shoulder strain last week and is officially done for the remainder of the 2023 regular season. Kyle Harrison will fill the vacated 40-man roster spot as he prepares to make his major-league debut Tuesday night in Philadelphia.

Estrada (hand) is back in the lineup Tuesday at Philadelphia.

Estrada will start at second base and bat second against the Phillies and right-hander Taijuan Walker after missing Monday's series opener due to a bruised right hand. X-rays turned up negative for any structural damage.

Peguero is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.

Peguero went 1-for-3 with two walks and two RBI in Monday's series-opening rout of St. Louis, but he'll grab some pine Tuesday as Alika Williams covers shortstop and Ji Hwan Bae handles second base.

Alu is absent from the lineup Tuesday versus the Yankees.

Ildemaro Vargas is covering second base and Carter Kieboom is at third as the Nationals go with a right-heavy attack against left-hander Carlos Rodon. Alu has batted just .233/.266/.300 through his first 64 major-league plate appearances.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk Monday in a 4-3 extra-innings win against the Rangers.

With Arizona trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the ninth inning, Marte tagged Aroldis Chapman for a solo shot to left field to tie the score. The long ball was his 20th of the campaign, just the second season in his career that he has reached that mark. The other time was in 2019, when Marte went deep 32 times and drove in 92 runs. He'll be hard-pressed to reach those totals this year, but with 20 homers and 63 RBI, he's already posted his best numbers in those categories since that 2019 season.

Kim went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, a double, two total runs and a stolen base in a 6-2 win over the Marlins on Monday.

Kim scored the Padres' first run in the first inning, leading off the frame with a double, stealing third base and racing home on a sacrifice fly. He made an even greater contribution in the second, belting a grand slam to left-center field after Miami starter Ryan Weathers loaded the bases on three straight walks. Kim could be found on fantasy waiver wires early in the campaign, but he's broken out and become a must-roster player, posting a .280/.370/.449 slash line along with 17 homers, 49 RBI, 71 runs and 28 thefts over 121 contests.

Arraez was pulled from Monday's game against San Diego due to a stomach cramp, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Arraez will be considered day-to-day until further notice, but given the nature of the issue, he's unlikely to miss additional time.

Arraez left Monday's game against the Padres due to an undisclosed injury, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

The severity of Arraez's injury is unclear at this time. He was replaced by Jon Berti at second base during the fourth inning.

Manager Brian Snitker does not believe Albies (hamstring) "will play in a rehab game before being activated," Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Albies has not encountered any issues since landing on the injured list a little less than a week ago, and as a result he may not need a tune-up before rejoining the big club. He is eligible to be activated by Atlanta this upcoming Friday, Aug. 25.

Gorman (back) will hit off a tee Monday and "increase baseball activity," John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Gorman is showing signs of progress, but he's still not feeling well enough to take part in defensive drills. He's eligible to be activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, but he may need to make significant strides in the coming days to be ready to go by the weekend.
