Miller went 3-for-7 with a double, a walk, three RBI and two runs scored during Saturday's doubleheader versus the Blue Jays.

Miller hit cleanup in both games, drawing one start at first base and the other at second. The infielder's versatility and strong hitting over the first month of the season have made him a regular presence in the lineup. He's gone 4-for-18 in May, but his overall slash line is at .353/.432/.588 with two home runs, 11 RBI, 18 runs scored and 10 doubles through 21 contests.

Rosario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Rosario will get a breather for the series finale after he started at shortstop in both ends of Saturday's doubleheader while going a collective 1-for-8 with two runs and a walk. Andres Gimenez will cover shortstop in Rosario's stead, while Owen Miller shifts over from first base to cover Gimenez's normal post at the keystone.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Rockies.

Rojas was activated from the injured list Friday and started the past two games at third base, and he'll receive a day off after going 2-for-7 with a walk, a run and a strikeout. Geraldo Perdomo will man the hot corner in his place during the series finale.

Dubon went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and four total runs in Saturday's 13-7 victory against St. Louis.

Dubon made an early impact with a second-inning two-run homer that gave San Francisco a three-run lead. He had already scored in the first frame after reaching base on an infield single. The long ball was the first of the campaign for Dubon, who has mostly struggled this season to the the tune of a .182/.200/.303 slash line across 35 plate appearances.

Urias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Urias was activated from the injured list Tuesday and started the past five games, and he'll head to the bench after going 6-for-17 with a home run, four walks, two RBI and five runs during that span. Jace Peterson will start at the hot corner in his place Sunday.

Lowe went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs, two walks and three runs scored Saturday against the Mariners.

Lowe took Marco Gonzales yard in consecutive plate appearances, bringing his homer total to five on the season. Lowe extended his hitting streak to six games with the effort, though this was his first multi-hit effort in that span. He is still having a subpar start to the season, but he has improved his line to .214/.310/.408 to go along with 11 RBI and 18 runs scored across 113 plate appearances.

Rojas started at third base for a second consecutive game and went 1-for-4 in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Rockies.

Rojas started both games since being activated off the injured list, slotting in at the hot corner in each contest. It looks like there's no need for Arizona manager Torey Lovullo to ease him back into the lineup, and Rojas appears to be the Diamondbacks' primary third sacker.

Hoerner went 3-for-7 with a double across both games of Saturday's doubleheader against the Dodgers.

The Cubs managed to score only two runs in total while getting swept in the twin bill, so Hoerner's efforts didn't result in any real offense. The 24-year-old infielder did extend his current hitting streak to five games, and he's putting together a solid season in general, slashing .289/.314/.434 with two homers, two steals and 11 RBI. However, he has scored only five runs in 25 games as he consistently hits toward the bottom of the order for one of the weaker offenses in baseball.

Marte went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Colorado.

Marte extended his hitting streak to seven straight, during which he's 8-for-24 with six extra-base hits, two RBI and six runs scored. He was hitting a paltry .135 before the seven-game run and currently sits at .184 for the season.

Altuve went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored Saturday against the Tigers.

Altuve took Eduardo Rodriguez yard in the third inning to record his fourth homer of the season. He has a five-game hitting streak -- three of which have been multi-hit efforts -- during which he has collected three home runs, three RBI and six runs scored. Overall, Altuve has a .255/.359/.473 line while also chipping in two steals across 64 plate appearances on the campaign.
