The Orioles placed Arauz (finger) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports.

The sprained finger Arauz suffered Monday will keep him out at least until next Friday. Baltimore won't miss much offense in his absence, as he's managed just five hits with 12 strikeouts in 38 at-bats this season.

Rojas is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Giants.

Rojas will get a day off after he went 2-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and three stolen bases in Monday's series opener. Sergio Alcantara will take over at the hot corner and bat seventh versus San Francisco.

Arraez is not in the lineup Tuesday in Milwaukee, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Arraez has gone 4-for-9 with a pair of runs and three RBI in two games after the break. He figures to re-enter the lineup Wednesday versus Corbin Burnes, if not Tuesday as a pinch hitter.

Andrus went 3-for-4 with a pair of RBI singles and a run in a win over the Astros on Monday.

The veteran shortstop was one of the most productive hitters for the Athletics in the upset win, and he extended his hitting streak to eight games in the process. Andrus sports a stellar .297/.388/.473 slash line overall over his last 22 games, yet Monday marked only his second multi-hit effort over that extended sample.

Stott went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a two-run double in Monday's 6-4 win over Atlanta.

The five RBI were a new career-high total for the rookie, who had previously driven in three runs on two other occasions this season. Stott's two-out homer in the bottom of the eighth inning allowed the Phillies to take their first lead of the night and eventually put an end to a three-game losing streak. Though Stott is still under the Mendoza Line for the season (.196 average), he's slashing a more palatable .234/.312/.426 since the beginning of June.

Lowe went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Orioles.

The second baseman took Austin Voth deep in the third inning, but it was all the offense the Rays could muster. The long ball was Lowe's sixth of the year and first since coming off the injured list just before the All-Star break, but he's been plenty productive during that time, going 10-for-23 (.435) in his last six games with two doubles, two RBI and five runs in addition to Monday's homer.

India went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a grand slam and a second run scored in Monday's 11-2 rout of the Marlins.

The 25-year-old cleared the bases off Zach Pop in the fifth inning for his first career slam. India appears to have found his Rookie of the Year form once again -- over his last 14 games, he's slashing .315/.383/.611 with four homers, a steal, 11 RBI and 12 runs.

Kemp went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two total runs and three total RBI in Monday's 7-0 victory versus Houston.

Kemp put Oakland on the board with his solo shot to right field in the third inning, and he knocked in two more runs with a double in the fourth. This was his second straight contest with a long ball following a 20-game homerless streak between June 26 and July 22. Power has never been a big part of his game, so fantasy managers in need of homers shouldn't seek him out despite the recent results.

Merrifield went 2-for-5 with a double, a run and a stolen base in a 7-0 win against the Angels on Monday.

Merrifield hit sixth in the order in each of the Royals' first two games following the All-Star break, but he was back in the leadoff spot for the second straight contest Monday. The veteran scored two of the team's seven runs and swiped his 15th bag of the season, eighth-most in the American League. Though Merrifield's .247/.297/.354 slash line isn't head-turning, it's impressive that he's reached those numbers after slashing .139/.179/.167 through his first 27 contests.

Rojas went 2-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and three stolen bases in Monday's 7-0 win over the Giants.

Entering Monday, Rojas had never had multiple steals in a major-league game, let alone three. This was also his second straight multi-hit effort. The infielder's rampant running has him up to 11 steals in 65 contests, and he's yet to be caught stealing. He's added a .279/.352/.408 slash line with five home runs, 28 RBI and 36 runs scored through 267 plate appearances.
