The Brewers recalled Monasterio from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Monasterio slashed just .208/.303/.272 over 59 games with Milwaukee last season. He will be used as a utility infielder.

The Padres reinstated Cronenworth (ribs) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

The 31-year-old has been sidelined for the past month due to a non-displaced rib fracture, but he's ready to rejoin the Padres after going 3-for-7 with a homer and four walks during a three-game rehab assignment. Cronenworth was off to a hot start prior to the injury with an .895 OPS in 44 plate appearances.

Estrada (wrist) has resumed fielding drills and running the bases this week, MLB.com reports.

Estrada resumed swinging the bat last weekend as he works toward his Rockies debut after fracturing his wrist late in spring training. He's likely nearing a rehab assignment and should have the chance to be activated by late May or early June.

McLain went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Thursday's 5-4 extra-innings loss to Atlanta.

Soon after McLain's return from the injured list in mid-April, his average plummeted below the Mendoza Line and has stayed there. However, he is making the most of the times he does get on base. Over the last 11 contests, McLain is batting .190 (8-for-42) with six walks and six stolen bases. He's up to nine steals over 30 games on the season, putting him on pace to eclipse the career-high 14 steals he delivered in 2023. McLain's most prolific season in the minors was 2022, when he swiped 27 bags across 103 games at Double-A Chattanooga.

Marte went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.

Marte hit his first homer of the season, stretching Arizona's lead to 5-0 in the fifth inning. The second baseman missed nearly a month due to a hamstring issue, so he's likely still working on his timing at the plate. Through 14 contests this year, he's batting .267 with a .789 OPS, two RBI, eight runs scored and no stolen bases over 54 plate appearances. Marte should handle a starting role most of the time, but Tim Tawa has gotten some extra looks at the keystone while Marte gets regular rest to avoid aggravating his hamstring, which has been a recurring concern in his career.

Stott went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in Thursday's extra-inning win over the Rays.

Stott snapped a 13-game homerless drought, ripping multiple extra-base hits for just the second time this season. The middle infielder has settled in as Philadelphia's leadoff batter, having now hit first in 20 games this year, but his splits should continue to render him an inconsistent fantasy option. The lefty-hitting Stott is batting just .200 with a .584 OPS through 25 at-bats against left-handed pitching, but he's hitting .295 with an .816 OPS across 105 at-bats versus righties.

Amador isn't in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against Detroit.

Amador went 0-for-3 during a blowout loss in Game 1, dropping his batting average down to just .152 on the year. He'll grab a seat on the bench for the final half of Thursday's activities, opening up second base for Owen Miller.

Triple-A Memphis activated Helman (undisclosed) from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

Helman missed nearly three weeks of action with an undisclosed injury. He's slashed only .204/.283/.278 with Memphis this season, and the Cardinals seem likely to turn to Thomas Saggese or Jose Fermin before Helman if they need a utility player.

Freeman (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque this weekend, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Out since mid-April with a left oblique strain, Freeman has been cleared for game action and shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before rejoining the Rockies' active roster. The versatile 25-year-old has various paths to playing time if he can perform well, although the career .221/.304/.324 hitter is no safe bet in that regard.

Espinal will start at third base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Espinal will pick up his eighth straight start Wednesday and his third in a row at third base, which could be his primary home for the foreseeable future after Noelvi Marte was placed on the 10-day injured list with a Grade 2 oblique strain. The 30-year-old Espinal has recorded at least one hit in each of his previous seven starts to lift his average up to .333 over 87 at-bats. Espinal could continue to occupy a spot in the heart of the lineup while he's swinging a hot bat and while the Reds are without multiple key hitters due to injuries.
