Rosario went 3-for-7 with a solo home run and two runs scored across both games of Monday's doubleheader versus the White Sox.

He went back-to-back with Cesar Hernandez to put Cleveland ahead 2-0 early in Game 1 of the twin bill. Rosario looks to be heating up again -- he's gone 5-for-13 in his last four games. The shortstop is slashing .252/.318/.381 with three homers, 14 RBI, 21 runs scored and four stolen bases. He frequently hits second in the order, which should keep him involved in run-producing plays.

Lux went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Monday's win over the Cardinals.

Lux recorded his first multi-hit game since May 23, and perhaps coincidentally, that was the last time he belted a home run as well. The second baseman has settled in as a regular this season, but his numbers aren't eye-popping by any means -- he's only hitting .247 with a .701 OPS across 168 plate appearances.

Dubon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-1 win over the Angels.

Dubon entered the game in the sixth inning after Evan Longoria (side) exited. In the bottom of the sixth, Dubon extended San Francisco's lead to 4-1 with his solo shot, which was his second homer in as many games. The utilityman is slashing .244/.281/.387 with four homers, 17 RBI, 11 runs scored and a stolen base through 48 contests this year. If Longoria is forced to miss time, one of Dubon, Wilmer Flores or Donovan Solano would likely handle third base in a near-everyday role.

Altuve went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk and three runs scored in Monday's 11-2 win over Boston.

The second baseman extended Houston's lead to 4-0 with a two-run blast off Boston starter Eduardo Rodriguez in the third inning. Altuve also scored in the fifth and sixth innings on singles by Kyle Tucker and Alex Bregman. Altuve has racked up seven home runs, 23 RBI, 35 runs scored and a stolen base while slashing .303/.359/.455 through 198 plate appearances, mainly as a leadoff hitter.

Miller is out of the lineup for the second game of Monday's doubleheader with the White Sox.

For the first time since his May 23 call-up from Triple-A Columbus, Miller will head to the bench, ending a streak of nine consecutive starts. After a going 0-for-3 with a walk in Cleveland's 8-6 loss in Game 1 of the twin bill, Miller is sitting on a .125/.152/.156 slash line to begin his big-league career.

Polanco went 1-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's 3-2 win over the Orioles in 10 innings.

After putting the Twins on the board in the third inning with a fielder's choice grounder that scored the game's first run, Polanco supplied some important insurance in extra innings. The Twins took a 2-1 lead when Rob Refsnyder scored on a wild pitch early in the inning, but Polanco's two-out solo shot held up as the difference after the Orioles came through with a run in the bottom half of the 10th. Polanco has now produced four extra-base hits (two home runs and two doubles) over his last six starts.

Gorman owns a .274/.358/.417 slash line with three doubles, three home runs, 10 RBI, two stolen bases, 11 walks and 14 runs across 95 plate appearances for Double-A Springfield.

The promising prospect is more than holding his own in his first exposure to Double-A arms, and his current 26.3 percent strikeout rate, while elevated, is actually better than those he generated at the Low-A and High-A levels during the 2018 and 2019 campaigns. Gorman has also continued to display above-average patience at the dish, as evidenced by an 11.6 percent walk rate that's his highest since his first professional stop in rookie ball back in 2018. If he continues to enjoy similar success with Springfield into the latter portion of the summer, a promotion to Triple-A Memphis at some point before the conclusion of the minor-league season certainly wouldn't be out of the question.

Wong will start at second base and bat second Monday against the Giants, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Wong will stick in the lineup for the third game in a row after he went 1-for-7 with a double while starting at second base in both of the previous two contests. He looks like he may have a clear path to regular reps in the middle infield while Jose Iglesias (hamstring) is on the shelf.

Andrus is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Seattle.

Andrus went hitless over four at-bats in the final two games of the Athletics' series with the Angels, but he started to catch fire at the plate prior to that, going 8-for-15 over a four-game stretch. The 32-year-old's standing atop the depth chart at shortstop appears secure for the time being, but Chad Pinder will spell him at the position Monday.

India isn't in the lineup Monday against the Phillies.

India had started each of the last three games and went 3-for-9 with an RBI, a walk and four strikeouts. Max Schrock will start at second base and bat fifth.
