Arroyo was scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the A's due to an illness, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Arroyo was set to start in right field Tuesday, but the ailment has caused him to be unavailable. He should be considered day-to-day until the team updates his status. Franchy Cordero will take Arroyo's spot in right field and bat ninth.

Chavis is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

Chavis started the past six games and will receive a contest off after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout during the matinee. Yu Chang will start at first base in Chavis' place in the nightcap.

Hernandez (hip) could return from the injured list when first eligible Saturday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Hernandez hit the injured list Wednesday with a strained right hip flexor, but his injury apparently isn't too serious. He'd posted a .789 OPS in his last 16 games before the injury, so the Red Sox will be excited to get him back.

Polanco (back) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Seattle, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

The 28-year-old will be withheld from the lineup for the second consecutive game due to back soreness. Polanco should be considered day-to-day, and it remains to be seen whether or not he'll be available off the bench.

Urias (hamstring) is starting at second base and hitting cleanup Tuesday against the Mets.

He has had a couple minor injuries recently, dealing with a thumb injury at the beginning of the month and then this hamstring issue that popped up Sunday. Urias hasn't had a multi-hit game since May 23 and is hitting .131 with three home runs over his last 17 games.

Espinal is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Orioles.

Espinal has quietly been very productive this season, especially lately, as he is hitting .380/.426/.640 with three home runs in 12 games this month. Cavan Biggio will start at the keystone and bat ninth.

Stott will sit Tuesday against the Marlins.

Stott started the last 11 games, with four of those games coming against southpaws. Yairo Munoz was called up Tuesday and will start against lefty Trevor Rogers, though that isn't necessarily a sign that Stott will slip into a platoon role going forward.

Torres (illness) will start at second base and bat fifth in Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Torres missed Sunday's series finale with the Cubs while he was dealing with an upset stomach, but the Yankees didn't miss his services in their 18-4 trouncing of Chicago. With the benefit of sitting Sunday coupled with a team off day Monday, Torres should be back to full strength as the Yankees open a six-game week.

Brujan is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Brujan will give way to Isaac Paredes at the keystone after starting in each of the Rays' last six games while going 5-for-22 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and five RBI. Though the 24-year-old switch hitter is slowly starting to settle in at the plate, he's still maintaining a poor .157/.206/.236 slash line at the big-league level in 2022.

Atlanta placed Albies (foot) on the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Albies' placement on the 60-day IL comes as little surprise after he was diagnosed with a fractured left foot shortly after exiting Monday's 9-5 win over the Nationals. A timeline for his return likely won't become available until a decision is made regarding whether Albies will require surgery, but even if he avoids a procedure, he'll be sidelined for a minimum of two months as a result of Tuesday's transaction. Phil Gosselin was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to take Albies' spot on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster, but David O'Brien of The Athletic expects Orlando Arcia to get the first crack at replacing Albies as Atlanta's everyday second baseman.
