Frazier is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers.

Frazier will take a seat on the bench for Wednesday's series finale with left-hander Drew Pomeranz tabbed to start what will be a bullpen game for the Brewers. Pablo Reyes will start at the keystone in place of Frazier, who is just 4-for-35 (.114) over his last 10 appearances.

Guillorme went 1-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.

Getting the start at second base and hitting sixth, the 24-year-old banged out his first extra-base hit in the majors this season. It's not yet clear how the Mets will replace Robinson Cano (hamstring) at the keystone, but Guillorme's start came with Adeiny Hechavarria at shortstop to cover a rest day for Amed Rosario and Jeff McNeil going to right field, and Guillorme might need both guys stationed elsewhere on the diamond to see much future action.

Albies went 4-for-6 with a triple, three runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 12-7 win over the Twins.

The 22-year-old is now slashing .364/.404/.545 over his last 10 games with three steals, four RBI and nine runs. Albies is thriving in the two hole between Ronald Acuna and Freddie Freeman, giving Atlanta arguably the most dangerous top of the order in all of baseball -- the trio combined for 10 hits, nine runs, eight RBI, two homers and two steals in Tuesday's slugfest.

Rosario isn't in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

Rosario went 3-for-9 with a solo blast during Monday's doubleheader, earning himself a day off. Adeiny Hechivarria draws the start at shortstop and is set to hit seventh with Rosario out of the equation.

McNeil (calf) is starting in right field and leading off Tuesday against the Marlins, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

McNeil exited the second half of Monday's doubleheader with cramps in his right calf, but as expected, he'll be ready to roll for Tuesday's clash. He leads the Mets with a .337 average over 99 games this season.

Diaz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the first game of Monday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Making his first career start in the big leagues, Diaz turned on a Jacob deGrom offering in the sixth inning for his first MLB hit and home run. The 23-year-old also got the nod at second base in the nightcap and was less successful, going 0-for-3 with a walk, but that usage is a clear sign the Marlins are going to give Diaz a long look at the keystone, at Starlin Castro's expense.

The Mets expect McNeil (calf) to return to the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

McNeil started in both ends of the Mets' doubleheader sweep Monday, going 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a pair of walks and an additional run before exiting the latter contest with a right calf cramp. After getting some time to rest up and properly hydrate, McNeil looks like he'll be good to handle his usual duties atop the batting order. Expect McNeil to see more action at the keystone than in the corner outfield for the final two months of the campaign after Robinson Cano (hamstring) was shut down Monday with a likely season-ending injury.

Rosario went 3-for-9 with a solo home run, two additional runs scored and a stolen base across both games of Monday's doubleheader sweep of the Marlins.

The shortstop hit second in both games, and with Robinson Cano (hamstring) now out of the picture, Rosario could well remain in a prime spot in the batting order for the rest of the season. Monday's output gives him 12 homers and 14 steals on the year, and he's slashing a dazzling .360/.400/.562 in 23 games since the All-Star break.

McNeil was removed from the second game of Monday's doubleheader against Miami due to a right calf cramp, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The Mets can breathe a sigh of relief, as McNeil appears to have avoided a significant injury. He figures to have a chance to return for Tuesday's matchup, though New York should provide an update on the 27-year-old's status following Monday's clash.

McNeil left Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against the Marlins with an undisclosed injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The team trainer came out to check on McNeil in left field during the third inning, and he was ultimately removed from the contest. He'll be considered day-to-day until the details surrounding his injury are revealed.
