Grissom (oblique) had his rehab assignment moved to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday, Taylor Blake Ward of TheSportingTribune.com reports.

Grissom began his minor-league rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday, going 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in his only contest with the team. The 25-year-old has been on the 10-day injured list since June 8 while recovering from a left oblique strain, but he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster in the near future.

Palacios is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Palacios will head to the bench as Tampa Bay squares off with southpaw Justin Wrobleski. Ben Williamson will take over at second base and bat sixth versus Los Angeles.

Peraza isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Arizona, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Peraza will move to the bench Tuesday after going 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in Monday's series opener. Nick Madrigal will take over as the Angels' second baseman and bat fifth.

The Dodgers activated Edman (ankle) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Edman is officially ready to go for the Dodgers on Tuesday after not seeing the field since Nov. 1, which was Game 7 of the 2025 World Series. The 31-year-old had surgery on his ankle not long after with hopes of being ready for spring training, but his absence extended far longer. The Dodgers designated Santiago Espinal for assignment in a corresponding move Tuesday. While Edman is back on the active roster, he is not in the lineup Tuesday. Alex Freeland has the start at second and is batting eighth, but he will likely lose playing time as Edman gets eased back in.

Smith (glute/wrist/illness) is starting at second base and batting seventh versus the Twins on Tuesday.

Smith was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday and came off the bench versus the Twins, getting his first plate appearance since May 3. Tuesday is the 28-year-old's first start following his activation Monday.

Gonzalez (shoulder) is beginning a rehab assignment with Double-A Portland on Tuesday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Gonzalez has been on the shelf all season after undergoing shoulder surgery in March, but he's finally been cleared for game action. The 29-year-old is expected to split his playing time between second base and designated hitter in the minors, and he'll likely need at least a handful of games during the rehab stint before being activated from the IL.

Nunez went 2-for-2 with a walk and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Royals.

The 25-year-old infielder's glove work and speed have kept him in the lineup at second base this season, but Nunez's bat is beginning to show signs of life in June as well. He's hit safely in seven of his last eight games, batting .321 (9-for-28) during that stretch with a double, three steals, five runs and six RBI.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that Edman (ankle) will start 3-to-4 days per week initially after being activated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Edman is finally ready for his season debut following a long rehab from offseason right ankle surgery. While most of Edman's playing time is likely to come at second base, he will see reps at third base and in left field, as well. The 31-year-old super utility player slashed .275/.351/.392 with one home run, one stolen base and a 6:16 BB:K over 14 rehab games with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Lopez started at shortstop and went 1-for-3 in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Twins.

Lopez filled in at shortstop after the Rangers placed Corey Seager on the 7-day concussion list. Lopez should share starts with Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran while Seager is sidelined.

McNeil went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, two additional RBI and two additional runs scored in Monday's 11-2 win over the Pirates.

McNeil went off at the dish, first driving in a run with a single in the second inning before clubbing a two-run homer in the fourth frame. The 34-year-old also added another RBI single in the seventh inning to widen the Athletics' lead. Monday marked a much-needed offensive outburst, as the second baseman entered the contest having gone 2-for-27 (.074) to begin June after posting a .562 OPS across 25 games in May. Overall, McNeil is slashing .238/.311/.324 with three homers, nine doubles, 19 RBI, 19 runs and a stolen base across 65 appearances this season.
