Forsythe went 1-for-3 with an RBI double in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Colorado.

Forsythe is showing some signs of life at the plate, going 5-for-14 with three doubles over his last five games. He is still batting just .188 on the year, but he can build on that if his luck turns around (.203 BABIP) and he continues his recent hot streak.

Albies went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and three runs scored Tuesday against the Phillies.

Albies blasted a home run off Vince Velasquez in the third inning, his 14th of the season. He reached base on two other occasions, scoring a run each time and crossing the plate for each of the Braves' three runs on the night. He continues to lead the National League in runs scored -- he now has 45 on the season -- and trails only Mookie Betts for the major-league lead.

Dubon (knee) underwent successful ACL surgery on Tuesday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Dubon was hitting an impressive .343/.348/.574 with four homers and six steals across 27 games with Triple-A Colorado Springs prior to tearing his ACL. He'll now focus on getting back to full health for next season, though it's still unclear if he'll be ready for the beginning of spring training at this point.

Guillorme got the start at third base and hit seventh in Monday's win over the Marlins, going 0-for-3.

The 23-year-old has started consecutive games for the first time since his promotion in early May, but Guillorme's 0-for-7 performance doesn't suggest he's seizing his opportunity. The Mets will likely continue platooning him with Wilmer Flores at third base while Todd Frazier (hamstring) is sidelined and Jose Reyes (2-for-22 in May) works on his swing. Guillorme shouldn't be expected to make a fantasy impact during that small window of playing time.

Forsythe is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks, Andy McCullough of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Forsythe, who is hitting just .190/.250/.302 through 17 games this season, will take a seat on the bench for Monday's series opener after starting three of the past four games. Chase Utley will pick up the start at the keystone and hit eighth in his stead.

Diaz (head) was placed on the minor-league disabled list Sunday.

The move, which is retroactive to May 18, comes after Diaz exited Wednesday's game at Double-A Jacksonville after getting hit in the helmet with a 90 mph fastball. Specifics regarding the injury remain unclear, as does a timetable for his return. Diaz was hitting just .194/.325/.336 through 37 games with the Jumbo Shrimp before suffering the injury.

Rosario went 2-for-3 with two home runs, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's matchup against the Diamondbacks.

The 22-year-old shortstop went deep in both the sixth and seventh inning of Sunday's game for his first two home runs of the season. Through 40 games this season, Rosario has put together a .248/.273/.368 batting line and has driven in 14 runs. The Mets begin a three-game set with the Marlins on Monday.

Hernandez went 1-for-2 with a home run, two walks, two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Nationals.

Hernandez got his first start since Thursday and took advantage by hitting his sixth home run of the season, one that gave the Dodgers a 3-2 lead. The return of Justin Turner and Logan Forsythe has crowded the Dodgers' infield and caused Hernandez to lose at-bats. Moving forward, he figures to see most of his at-bats come with left-handed pitchers on the mound, and he will fill in all over the field defensively.

Marte is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

We may see this more often in the days and weeks ahead with Jake Lamb supplanting Daniel Descalso at third base. Descalso has been one of the team's most consistent hitters to this point, so he will continue to play, seemingly at Marte's expense. Marte is batting just .218/.317/.273 in May.

Forsythe is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Forsythe will continue the trend of not starting in consecutive games since coming off the disabled list Tuesday. Chase Utley will bat sixth and start at second base as Washington sends Max Scherzer to the mound.
