Young went 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs and three total RBI in Monday's 6-2 win over the Angels.

Young logged his second multi-hit effort in a row and the first multi-homer game of his career. He's had a lively bat in June, clubbing five of his nine homers on the season this month while batting .294 (30-for-102) over 26 games. For the season, he's hitting .260 with a .713 OPS, 40 RBI, 37 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases across 86 contests.

Lee went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 7-3 win over the Yankees.

Lee is starting to trend upward, as he's now batting .356 over his last 15 games, and he's tallied five multi-hit performances during that time. The rookie is getting an extended look at second base with Gleyber Torres (oblique) on the injured list. Lee should return to the bench or possibly Triple-A Toledo once Torres is healthy, but for now, Lee is worth a look in deeper formats as long as he stays hot, and his dynasty value seems to be increasing as well.

The Yankees announced that Chisholm has been placed in concussion protocol after exiting Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning following a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez.

He struck out in his lone at-bat before leaving the game. The Yankees haven't confirmed that Chisholm sustained a concussion, but he'll need to pass all the steps of the league's protocol before returning to the diamond. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to replace Chisholm at second base Monday, though Amed Rosario and Jose Caballero could also factor into the mix for playing time at the position if Chisholm misses additional time.

McNeil is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

With a lefty (Eric Lauer) on the bump for the Dodgers, the left-handed-hitting McNeil will be given a break after he started in each of the Athletics' last five games. Joshua Kuroda-Grauer will replace McNeil at second base and will bat ninth.

Freeland is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Athletics.

Miguel Rojas will receive the start at second base as Freeland moves to the bench after going 4-for-17 with a double, three walks and five runs while covering the keystone in the Dodgers' previous five games. With Los Angeles bringing Teoscar Hernandez (hamstring) back from the injured list Monday, utility man Tommy Edman's opportunities in the outfield could become more limited. Edman could end up poaching more starts from Freeland at second base as a result.

Chisholm was removed from Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning after a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. He struck out in his lone plate appearance before leaving the game.

Chisholm was down on the ground for a while following the collision and then was evaluated by team trainers while he was taking a knee. He appeared to be getting checked for a concussion after his head made contact with Dominguez's elbow. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to step in at second base in place of Chisholm, who can be viewed as day-to-day until the Yankees provide an update on the nature of his injury.

Donovan (groin) ran sprints on the field Monday and will be re-evaluated after the Mariners' homestand to determine whether he's ready to begin a rehab assignment, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

The Mariners' homestand runs through Sunday, so Donovan is at least a week from playing in games. That timeline seemingly rules him out for a return before the All-Star break, though he could conceivably be ready for the start of the second half if all goes well. Donovan has been limited to just 25 games this season due to a recurring groin injury.

Monasterio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

Though Marcelo Mayer (forearm) recently joined fellow infielders Trevor Story (sports hernia), Nick Sogard (oblique) and Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm) on the injured list, Monasterio hasn't been able to gain a foothold in the Boston lineup. Monasterio will remain on the bench for the fifth game in a row while the Red Sox go with Anthony Seigler and Tsung-Che Cheng as their starters in the middle infield.

The Padres reinstated Cronenworth (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Monday. He'll start at second base and bat ninth in the Padres' series opener versus the Cubs.

San Diego optioned infielder/designated hitter Will Wagner to Triple-A El Paso to clear a spot on the 26-man active roster for Cronenworth, who returns to the Padres after a nearly two-month stint on the shelf. Cronenworth proved his health last week during a three-game rehab stint with El Paso, going 3-for-12 with a home run and a double while making one start apiece at second base, designated hitter and shortstop. The 32-year-old is likely to see most of his playing time at the keystone, which will result in Fernando Tatis transitioning back into more of a full-time role in right field after he split time between the infield and outfield while Cronenworth was out of commission.

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

Castro will get his first day off since June 17, ending a stretch of nine consecutive starts for the veteran infielder. While Castro hits the bench Monday, the Rockies will turn to Edouard Julien at second base and Kyle Karros at third base.
