Gimenez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Gimenez is mired in a 2-for-19 slump and will take a seat Sunday after he started Cleveland's first 21 games of the campaign. Gabriel Arias will step in at the keystone and bat eighth in the series finale versus Miami.

Arraez is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

Arraez went 4-for-8 over the doubleheader against the Guardians on Saturday and will take a seat with a .444 average over his first 72 at-bats with the Marlins. Jon Berti is leading off and playing second base in Arraez's absence.

Arroyo is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Arroyo returned to action off the bench while going 1-for-2 with a run scored during Saturday's loss to the Brewers, but he will take a seat for the series finale against Milwaukee on Sunday. Enrique Hernandez gets the start at second base while Yu Chang will play shortstop against Corbin Burnes and the Brew Crew.

Frazier is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's finale against the Tigers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The lefty-hitting Frazier will take a seat against southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez for the series finale. Ramon Urias will replace Frazier at second base and bat cleanup.

Arroyo went 1-for-2 with a run scored in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Brewers.

Arroyo had not started a game since April 17 due to a hamstring injury, although he did make an appearance Friday. He singled in the fifth inning and came around to score on Yu Chang's home run. He was later pinch hit for by Raimel Tapia against right-handed reliever Peter Strzelecki.

Arraez went 4-for-8 with two walks, a double, a run scored and two RBI across both games of Saturday's doubleheader sweep of the Guardians.

After smacking a two-run single in the matinee to help fuel a 6-1 win, Arraez reached base four times in the nightcap as the Marlins eked out a 3-2 victory. The former Twin continues to rake in his new uniform, and he leads the majors in both batting average (.444) and OBP (.506). Arraez has become something of an unconventional No. 3 hitter for an underpowered Miami lineup, and through 20 games he has only one homer, one steal, eight runs and nine RBI to show for all his trips on the basepaths.

Estrada went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Mets.

Estrada was the only Giant to record multiple hits in the contest. He's picked up three of his five steals over the last five games, and he's hit safely in each of those contests, going 6-for-20 (.300) in that span. The second baseman is up to .329/.378/.500 slash line with three home runs, six RBI and 15 runs scored through 20 games.

Albies went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's loss to the Astros.

Albies brought Atlanta back into the game with a two-run shot to cut the deficit to one in the sixth inning, but that was the end of the team's scoring Saturday. Albies has left the yard three times in his last six games, The second baseman has 18 RBI in 21 games this season.

Hoerner went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Dodgers.

After not hitting a home run over the first 18 games of the season, Hoerner has gone deep in back-to-back matchups versus the Dodgers. The 25-year-old infielder continues to shine as the Cubs' leadoff hitter, and he's totaled 11 RBI, nine stolen bases and 19 runs across 20 games.

Jackson has gone 1-for-7 with a double, a walk and two RBI in two games since Double-A Rocket City reinstated him from the temporary inactive list Tuesday.

Jackson was out of commission for about two weeks while he was on the inactive list, but the missed time shouldn't hinder his development in any significant way.
