Schneider went 4-for-5 with a home run, four RBI and one run scored in Sunday's 13-1 victory over the Red Sox.

After forcing his way to the big leagues by hitting 21 homers with a .416 OBP in Triple-A, Schneider has begun his big-league career on a tear. The 2017 28th-round pick was moved up to third in the batting order in place of a resting Vladimir Guerrero and delivered with four hits, including his second home run. Schneider now has nine hits -- an MLB record for the modern era in a player's first three games -- to go along with those two homers and five RBI. While that pace is obviously unsustainable, the Blue Jays will find a way to consistently include him in their lineup provided he continues to produce.

The Pirates optioned Gonzales to Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday.

Gonzales lost his spot on the 26-man active roster when the Pirates needed to make room for first baseman Alfonso Rivas, whom the team acquired from the Padres on Tuesday. Before the demotion to Triple-A, Gonzales had already seemingly lost hold of a regular role in the middle infield, as Liover Peguero and Alika Williams emerged as the Bucs' primary options at second base and shortstop, respectively. Gonzales turned in a .216/.268/.353 with two home runs and no stolen bases over 112 plate appearances with Pittsburgh in his first stint in the big leagues.

Lowe went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Sunday's win over the Tigers.

Lowe continues to terrorize opposing pitchers with his fifth home run over his last 10 games. The 28-year-old is still hitting just .226 on the year but has been showcasing tremendous power potential as of late. Lowe has typically been slotting in at the three spot against righties and will look to continue his momentum with the Rays lined up to face five right-handers in the upcoming week.

Albies went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Cubs.

He's hit safely in all five of his games in August, going 8-for-22 (.364) in that span. Albies has tallied five extra-base hits in that span. The second baseman continues to hit well in the top half of Atlanta's order -- he's sporting a .261/.321/.508 slash line with 25 home runs, 77 RBI, 67 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 109 contests this season.

Hoerner went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 6-4 win over Atlanta.

While Hoerner was held hitless for the second game in a row, he was able to pick up his sixth steal in his last 14 games. In that span, he's batting .300 (18-for-60) with eight extra-base hits. The infielder is up to 27 steals in 30 attempts this year while slashing .272/.329/.394 with eight home runs, 58 RBI and 67 runs scored across 103 contests.

Marte was lifted from Sunday's game against the Twins with left quadricep tightness, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

The 29-year-old went 0-for-3 before being replaced by Geraldo Perdomo during the bottom of the fifth inning. Marte will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery prior to Tuesday's series opener against the Dodgers.

Semien went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Marlins.

Semien has homered three times during his seven-game hitting streak, a span in which he's gone 10-for-27 (.370). The second baseman also notched his first steal since July 3, giving him 10 thefts on the year. For the season, he's slashing a strong .281/.350/.469 with 18 homers, 71 RBI, 92 runs scored, 29 doubles and two triples over 112 contests as the Rangers' main leadoff hitter.

Arroyo cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Arroyo was designated for assignment by Boston on Friday, and he'll remain in the organization after going unclaimed on waivers. Over 66 games with the Red Sox this year, the 28-year-old has hit .241 with three homers, 24 RBI, 23 runs and a stolen base.

Hernandez will start in left field and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Padres.

Hernandez will stick in the lineup for the seventh straight game and will appear in his 10th contest overall since beginning his second stint with the Dodgers on July 26. He's managed a .286/.300/.393 slash line through his first nine games with the Dodgers, but don't expect Hernandez's playing time to remain quite as robust moving forward. Hernandez has mostly benefited from the Dodgers having encountered a lefty-heavy slate of late, with Sunday's game marking the fifth time in six contests that Los Angeles has opposed a southpaw starter. He's not expected to be a lineup regular versus right-handed pitching.

Kemp (rib) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Kemp hasn't started since exiting Wednesday's 10-1 loss to the Dodgers with a rib contusion, but he made a cameo off the bench in Saturday's 2-1 win. He entered the game as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth and drew a walk, then played left field for the final frame. The injury could be behind Kemp at this point, as his continued absence from the lineup may be a result of him losing his spot in the everyday outfield after Esteury Ruiz returned from the 10-day injured list Saturday.
