Garcia is batting second and starting at second base Tuesday against the Mets.

Garcia has shown a little more life at the plate lately and even drew back-to-back turns out of the cleanup spot over the weekend in Minnesota, but he's slashing just .224/.270/.345 overall this season. Lacking in both power and speed, the 22-year-old still profiles as a non-factor in most fantasy formats even with a prominent lineup spot.

Guillorme will start at second base and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

The lefty-hitting Guillorme will pick up his fifth start in six games, with one of those assignments even coming against a left-handed pitcher. Though he still appears to be on the outside looking in for an everyday role, Guillorme's high contact rate, on-base skills and quality defense in the infield may be enough for him to earn a handful of starts per week.

Rojas did not start or play in Monday's 5-4 win over Kansas City.

Rojas was given a rest day after starting 15 consecutive games. Geraldo Perdomo took his spot atop the order, while Evan Longoria slotted in at the hot corner.

Wisely was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento by the Giants on Monday, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Wisely went 1-for-14 at the dish during his first stint in the big leagues. He's clearing out to make room for Mitch Haniger's return.

Arraez is not in the Marlins' lineup Monday against Atlanta due to a left knee bruise, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Now it makes sense that Arraez is on the bench for the second day in a row. The injury looks to be a day-to-day situation. Jon Berti is at second base in Arraez's place Monday, with Garrett Hampson covering shortstop.

Arraez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta, Isaac Azout of SBNation.com reports.

Arraez played both legs of a doubleheader Saturday in Cleveland but will now receive his second day off in a row. The Marlins haven't suggested that Arraez is dealing with an injury, so he may just be receiving some extra rest after taking on a heavy workload the first few weeks of the season. Jon Berti will fill for Arraez at the keystone Monday.

Trejo will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game in Cleveland, Suzie Hunter of TheDNVR.com reports.

With the Rockies phasing the slumping Elehuris Montero out of a regular role of late before optioning him to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday, Trejo looks to be the main beneficiary from a playing-time perspective. Ryan McMahon has shifted over from second base to serve as the replacement for Montero at third base, leaving the keystone open for Trejo. The 26-year-old will collect his sixth start in seven games Monday, but with a .237 average to go with no home runs or steals in 40 plate appearances on the season, Trejo has offered little to get excited about for fantasy purposes.

Estrada went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Mets.

Estrada's hitting streak is up to six games (7-for-23), and his long ball was his first since April 14. The second baseman continues to stand out for the Giants with a .329/.384/.532 slash line, four homers, seven RBI, 17 runs scored and five stolen bases through 20 contests.

Gorman went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in Sunday's win against the Mariners. He was also caught stealing.

The hot-hitting infielder took Chris Flexen deep in the fourth inning with what proved to be the game-winning long ball. Gorman is up to 11 extra-base hits and 22 RBI with an impressive .313/.397/.657 slash line through 78 plate appearances. He was stuck in a small 3-for-15 skid since his last multi-hit performance April 16.

Villar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Villar started five of the past six games but went just 2-for-17 with two doubles, three RBI and nine strikeouts during that span. J.D. Davis appears to have taken ahold of the starting job at third base, as he's starting there Sunday for the 10th time in San Francisco's last 11 contests.
