Hayes isn't in the Pirates' lineup Tuesday against San Diego, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Hayes -- slashing .337/.337/.518 since the start of June -- will get another day off Tuesday after also sitting out Sunday's game. Rodolfo Castro will take over at the hot corner and bat sixth.

Anderson is not in the lineup Monday versus the Mets.

Blake Perkins will start in right field and bat eighth against the Mets and right-hander Justin Verlander. Luis Urias is handling third base and hitting seventh. Anderson got off to an excellent start this season with the Brewers but has slashed just .160/.292/.227 over his last 89 plate appearances dating back to late May.

The Marlins reinstated Segura (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Miami optioned Garrett Hampson and Jacob Amaya to Triple-A Jacksonville to make room for the returns of two everyday players in Segura and Jazz Chisholm (toe), who was also brought back from the 10-day injured list. Before he was deactivated June 17 due to the left hamstring strain, Segura had been one of the majors' worst-performing regulars, as he mustered a lowly .190/.259/.234 slash line over 225 plate appearances. With the Marlins currently finding themselves atop the National League wild-card standings entering play Monday, Segura may not have a long leash on a spot in Miami's regular lineup if he continues to struggle at the plate in his return to action.

Candelario went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, three runs scored and three RBI in Sunday's victory over the Padres.

Candelario wasted no time opening the game's scoring with his first-inning solo shot before later adding a two-run double. The 29-year-old has started to pick things up over his last 10 games, going 13-for-35 (.371) with nine extra-base knocks and eight runs scored. Candelario is now slashing .261/.338/.471 with 10 homers, 24 doubles and 36 RBI through 73 games.

Davis went 2-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Davis has hit safely in four of his last six games, going 6-for-23 (.261) with four RBI in that span. The third baseman has resumed his everyday role at third base since recovering from an ankle injury. For the season, he's slashing .285/.364/.469 with 10 home runs, 44 RBI, 32 runs scored and a stolen base over 72 contests.

Newman went 0-for-1 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 7-6 loss to Atlanta.

Newman has gotten on base safely in all but one of his last seven games, and he's added two steals and four RBI in that span. The infielder's playing time is on the decline with the Reds' infield at full health, and he'll likely be confined to a short-side platoon role going forward. Newman has a .266/.325/.380 slash line with three home runs, 26 RBI, 22 runs scored and six steals through 206 plate appearances this season.

Riley went 0-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Reds.

Both of Riley's steals this season have come in June -- the other was versus the Nationals on June 9. The third baseman has gone 12-for-46 (.261) with five walks over his last 11 contests. He's slashing .265/.333/.440 with 13 home runs, 38 RBI, 50 runs scored and 14 doubles through 77 games. While that's still above average from a league-wide perspective, Riley's had a bit of trouble hitting for power this year compared to his last two seasons.

Rivera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at San Francisco.

Rivera will take a seat for the second time in Arizona's past three games. Evan Longoria will start at the hot corner Sunday, and the pair should split playing time at the position going forward after Josh Rojas was demoted Monday.

Hayes is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.comreports.

The 26-year-old started the past six games and will take a seat after he posted a .640 OPS and 32 percent strikeout rate during that stretch. Rodolfo Castro will man the hot corner and bat eighth in Hayes' place Sunday.

Candelario went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Padres.

Candelario had gone 11 games without a homer, though he hit .270 (10-for-37) in that span. His blast came off Matt Waldron in the first inning and was ultimately all Washington needed in the win. Candelario has hit safely in seven of his last nine games and is up to a .255/.333/.454 slash line with nine long balls, 33 RBI, 35 runs scored, two stolen bases and 23 doubles over 72 contests in 2023. He continues to hold down a starting job at third base.
