Stott will start at second base and bat fifth in Tuesday's game versus the Cubs.

Stott has been the Phillies' regular leadoff man against right-handers since mid-April, but he's moving down in the order as the Cubs send righty Colin Rea to the bump. The 27-year-old Stott is slashing only .195/.244/.260 since the start of May.

The Giants recalled Koss from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

The 27-year-old was demoted last week but will rejoin San Francisco with Matt Chapman (hand) landing on the injured list. Koss has a .219/.275/.266 slash line over 72 plate appearances in the majors this season and will likely fill a reserve role while up with the big club.

Muncy went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Angels.

Muncy has found his power with three homers over his last four games. He has gone 6-for-21 (.286) across five games since his recall from Triple-A Las Vegas. The infield prospect started slow during his first stint in the majors, but he looks to be putting the pieces together the second time around. He's at a .202/.228/.382 slash line with four homers, 10 RBI, seven runs scored, four doubles and no stolen bases over 92 plate appearances. He has a short-term path to a starting role at third base, but Gio Urshela (hamstring) is set to begin a rehab assignment soon and could pose a threat to Muncy's playing time later in the month.

Frazier went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins.

Frazier recorded his fourth three-hit game of the season, with each coming in his last 12 games. During this span, the veteran utility man is batting a torrid .395 (17-for-43) with one home run, four doubles, five RBI and six runs scored. Frazier regularly sits against southpaws and continues to see limited playing time since Nick Gonzales returned -- Frazier has taken just 19 at-bats versus lefties in 2025 and has started just four of Pittsburgh's past eight contests.

Gelof (ribs) is expected to be sent out on a minor-league rehab assignment later in the week, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Gelof was cleared to resume a hitting progression at the end of May, and he's since made enough progress to see live at-bats in the minors. The Virginia product hasn't played in a game yet this season, so he'll presumably need at least a handful of appearances in the minors before being activated from the 60-day injured list.

The Guardians optioned Wilson to Triple-A Columbus on Monday.

Wilson had just a .498 OPS and 39 percent strikeout rate over 24 contests during his first stint in the majors. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for the return of Lane Thomas (foot).

LeMahieu went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to Boston on Sunday.

LeMahieu gave New York a one-run lead with a solo shot in the fifth inning, but Boston responded with five runs in the following frame. The long ball was LeMahieu's second of the campaign and his first since May 17. The veteran infielder is slashing a modest .258/.333/.371 on the campaign, though he's been swinging a hot bat since the start of the month, going 9-for-21 (.429 average) with six RBI over six games so far in June.

Lopez went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Rays.

The 26-year-old has swiped a bag in back-to-back games, giving him seven on the season in 10 attempts. Lopez has picked up the pace at the plate over the last few weeks, slashing .255/.333/.412 over the last 14 contests with two homers, four steals, six runs and eight RBI.

Muncy went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 5-1 win over Baltimore.

Muncy went yard for the second time in three games, tagging Bryan Baker for a solo shot in the eighth inning. The third baseman spent over a month in Triple-A before being called up June 4, and he's 4-for-17 (.235) with four RBI and six strikeouts since.

Edman went 2-for-3 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Cardinals.

Edman was clutch throughout the game, driving in a run in each of the second, fourth and eighth innings. Over his past 10 games, he's hit safely seven times with a homer, six RBI, seven runs scored and a stolen base. While the 30-year-old has surprisingly swiped just three bags this season, he's hitting .244 with nine home runs, 32 RBI and 29 runs scored across 190 plate appearances. Most impressively, he's batting .343 with a 1.096 OPS with runners in scoring position.
