Urias isn't starting Monday's game against the Cubs.

Urias went 0-for-13 with a run, one stolen base, four walks and four strikeouts in his last four games. Daniel Robertson will take over at shortstop for Monday's series opener, batting eighth.

Guillorme will split time with Jonathan Villar at third base while J.D. Davis (hand) is on the injured list.

The two won't be deployed in a strict platoon as Villar is a switch hitter, but Guillorme was listed in the starting lineup Sunday before that game was postponed due to rain, as he could see the majority of the action due to his superior defensive reputation. Guillorme is 3-for-6 with three singles and two strikeouts to begin the season.

Albies went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Phillies.

Albies got things rolling quickly as he launched a 404-foot home run to right center field to give Atlanta a 2-1 lead in the first inning. He was held hitless the rest of the game, but it was still encouraging to see him hit his first long ball of the season. Albies is starting to find his groove a bit, as he's notched a hit in five straight games while tallying four RBI in that span.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Nick Ahmed's return from the injured list Saturday appears to have closed Rojas' window for everyday playing time. Rojas wasn't able to take advantage of the extra opportunities he received to begin the season, going 2-for-27 with a 3:7 BB:K. He'll likely transition into a utility role for Arizona.

The Giants acquired Estrada from the Yankees on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

San Francisco will add Estrada to its 40-man roster, but the infielder will be optioned to the Giants' alternate site as his new organization looks to get an extended evaluation of him. Estrada had appeared in 61 games for the Yankees across the past two seasons, generating a .214/.267/.348 slash line in 121 plate appearances.

India is out of the lineup Sunday at Arizona.

The 24-year-old started the first eight games of the season but will head to the bench for Sunday's contest. Kyle Farmer will start at second base in place of India for the series finale.

Kim went 1-for-2 with a home run, a walk, a hit-by-pitch and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.

Kim's first career home run off Jordan Lyles tied the game in the fifth inning. The Korean is receiving more playing time in Fernando Tatis Jr.'s (shoulder) absence on the injured list. Kim is getting everyday starts at shortstop to prove why he deserves to be a starter on a major-league roster. Although he is only batting .210 to start the season, he still has at least until April 16 to receive everyday at-bats until Tatis can return.

Trejo's contract was selected by the Rockies on Saturday.

Trejo will join the major-league club for the first time after Chris Owings (thumb) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The 24-year-old should serve as infield depth with Owings and Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) sidelined. Trejo spent the 2019 campaign with Double-A Hartford and slashed .243/.290/.391 with 15 home runs, 49 RBI and five stolen bases in 125 games.

Rodgers (hamstring) is making significant progress in his recovery, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Rodgers suffered a right hamstring strain in mid-March but has been participating in baseball activities recently. He's been doing light running, and he'll take batting practice and work on fielding Saturday. Manager Bud Black said Saturday that Rodgers is getting close to a return, but Black declined to give a specific timetable for the second baseman to make his season debut.

Rojas went 0-for-4 in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Reds.

Rojas, who is filling in at shortstop for the injured Nick Ahmed (knee), had his batting average drop to .074 following the game. He opened the season as the primary leadoff hitter but was quickly dropped amid the hitting woes. If fantasy managers haven't benched him yet, news that Ahmed is expected to return this weekend should prompt that move.
