Castro is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

After a run of nine consecutive starts, Castro finds himself on the bench Tuesday for a second straight game. He posted a .602 OPS and 31.7 percent strikeout rate during that nine-game stretch, though he still has a .292/.388/.472 slash line across 23 contests in June.

McNeil is not in the lineup versus the Dodgers on Tuesday.

McNeil is starting Tuesday's game from the bench while the Dodgers send southpaw Justin Wrobleski to the mound. The second baseman did not start in Monday's game either due to another lefty, Eric Lauer, starting. Joshua Kuroda-Grauer is starting at second base and is batting ninth Tuesday.

Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the

Lowe posted a .690 OPS and 29.2 percent strikeout rate while starting the previous 19 games, but he'll hit the bench Tuesday with ace lefty Cristopher Sanchez pitching for Philadelphia. Nick Gonzales will shift to second base while Jared Triolo receives a start at the hot corner.

McLain worked out in center field pregame Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

The Reds have lost Blake Dunn (elbow) and Dane Myers (shoulder) indefinitely, creating a need for a right-handed-hitting center fielder. McLain has never played the outfield in pro ball, but he was used there extensively in college at UCLA and also saw some action in center field during the Arizona Fall League. Edwin Arroyo has surged past McLain as the Reds' top option at second base versus righties, so McLain proving capable in the outfield would give him another path to playing time.

Manager Aaron Boone said Chisholm (head) has one remaining concussion test to pass before fully clearing the protocol, but the second baseman is expected to be available off the bench Tuesday against the Tigers, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

The second baseman was placed in concussion protocol after colliding with Jasson Dominguez in shallow right field Monday, but Chisholm expects to go through a normal pre-game workout and should be back in the lineup in short order.

The Astros recalled Delgado from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

The 26-year-old was optioned to Sugar Land on Monday but will quickly return to the majors since Jeremy Pena (calf) landed on the injured list. Delgado received his first promotion to the majors in mid-June and is batting .280 (7-for-25) with a homer, four RBI and two runs in his first 13 games.

The Reds selected Johnson's contract from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Johnson has put up a healthy .290/.388/.489 batting line with nine home runs, 11 stolen bases and a 26:49 BB:K over 55 games this season with Louisville. The 27-year-old has played mostly at second base and in left field in 2026, but he has experience at every position other than first base, catcher and pitcher. Johnson will be making his major-league debut if he gets into a game.

Arraez went 2-for-4 with a double in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Arraez singled in the third inning and hit a double in the eighth, marking his second straight game with multiple hits. The veteran infielder has recorded at least one hit in all but one of his last 10 appearances, batting .378 with seven runs scored, five RBI and one home run in 43 plate appearances during that span. He's slashing .326/.362/.450 with 42 runs scored, 31 RBI, six stolen bases and three long balls across 349 plate appearances this season.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that Chisholm (head) will not be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Tigers.

Chisholm was forced from Monday's contest after taking an elbow to the head from teammate Jasson Dominguez while the two were chasing a popup. He was placed in concussion protocol and is still being evaluated. Boone added he hopes Chisholm will be available off the bench Tuesday, though the skipper is still waiting on an update from the team's medical staff.

Edwards went 1-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Rockies.

The 26-year-old infielder stole a bag for a second straight game while extending his current hitting streak to eight games. Over that span, Edwards is batting .400 (12-for-30) with a double, a triple, two steals, three RBI and three runs, and on the season he's swiped 13 bags in 16 attempts over 85 contests, keeping him in range of a third straight campaign with 25 or more steals.
