Gorman is absent from the lineup for Monday's game in Miami.

Gorman will begin this one on the bench as the Cardinals face left-hander Braxton Garrett. St. Louis will go with Tommy Edman at second base and Luken Baker at designated hitter.

Montes was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque following Sunday's 14-9 loss to the Tigers.

Montes will head back to Albuquerque after being called up June 11. Over 18 games with the Rockies, the 26-year-old produced a disappointing .184/.244/.316 slash line with only three extra-base hits while striking out 12 times over 38 at-bats. He'll look to get back into a groove in Triple-A before potentially making a return to Colorado's roster later this season.

Jones signed a major-league contract with the Brewers and was added to the 26-man active roster ahead of Monday's game against the Cubs.

Before he opted out of his minor-league deal with the Dodgers over the weekend, the 25-year-old infielder has spent the entirety of the 2023 season at Triple-A Oklahoma City and put together a .292/.427/.542 slash line over 263 plate appearances. Jones will now get the opportunity to return to the big leagues with the Brewers, who are in need of added infield depth in the short term after Brian Anderson was placed on the paternity list Monday. Jones could end up serving as a short-side platoon player while he's up with the big club.

Albies went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's win over the Marlins.

He took Sandy Alcantara deep in the fifth inning to put Atlanta in the lead for good. Albies has reached 20 homers for the fourth time in his career, needing only 83 games to get there, and the 26-year-old seems poised to set new career highs in the power categories -- his previous best was 30 home runs over 156 games in 2021.

Kemp went 2-for-5 with an RBI single, a stolen base and two runs in a loss to the White Sox on Sunday.

Back atop the order for the sixth consecutive game, Kemp's torrid stretch at the plate continued with his third straight two-hit effort. The veteran's offensive transformation, which began June 15 after three consecutive days off, has been nothing short of astounding -- Kemp owns a .340 average, .964 OPS and microscopic 3.2 percent strikeout rate over that 16-game span, giving his average a 50-point boost to .196 in the process.

Gimenez went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer, a double, a steal and three runs scored in Sunday's win over the Cubs.

Gimenez reached three times after he was hit by a pitch to lead off the game and also swiped second in the frame. He eventually opened up the scoring with a two-run blast off Jameson Taillon in the third and wound up scoring the winning run as the ghost runner in extra innings. The long ball was his first since June 17 and just his second extra-base hit over his last 11 games. Gimenez has been heating up at the plate, however, with multiple hits in three of his last seven games. He's now slashing .246/.315/.382 with six homers, 31 RBI, 37 runs and a 16:52 BB:K in 313 plate appearances.

Donovan went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's win over the Yankees.

Donovan returned to the leadoff spot after not appearing in Saturday's doubleheader due to a minor arm issue and picked up right where he left off with his second home run in his last three games. The 26-year-old has cemented himself as the Cardinals' leadoff hitter against righties and has rightfully earned it, as he's slashing .325/.428/.513 with six homers, 15 RBI, 19 runs and a 15:15 BB:K in his last 32 games after struggling to get going in April and the large majority of May.

Lopez went 2-for-5 with a double, four RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

Lopez tied his career-high with four RBI after he had a two-run double in the fourth followed by run scoring single and fielder's choice. Though he's only had 144 plate appearances this year, Lopez currently leads the Royals in on-base percentage (.355) and sports a career-best 14 percent walk rate. He's primarily only in the lineup against righties and is now up to a slash line of .222/.355/.308 with seven extra-base hits, 11 RBI, 14 runs and a 19:26 BB:K.

Estrada will be re-evaluated Monday after being hit by a pitch on his wrist during Sunday's loss to the Mets, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Estrada was hit by a pitch in the top of the eighth inning but remained in the game down the stretch. The extent of his injury isn't yet clear, but he should tentatively be considered day-to-day ahead of Monday's series opener against the Mariners.

Castro went 3-for-3 with two runs scored in Sunday's 14-9 loss to the Tigers.

Castro had gone 12 games without a multi-hit effort, batting .250 (7-for-28) with a home run and four RBI in that span. He played well Sunday, twice coming home on sacrifice flies from Brenton Doyle. Castro is batting .281 with a .643 OPS, one home run, 22 RBI, 19 runs scored and eight doubles through 179 plate appearances this season. He's on the strong side of a platoon at second base, sharing the position with Coco Montes.
