McMahon went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Giants.

McMahon has been productive throughout the team's current homestand, as he's tallied four multi-hit performances in his last five starts. He's also collected two home runs, seven RBI and six runs scored in that span while hitting .400. Despite a 28.3 percent strikeout rate, McMahon has maintained a .268/.359/.441 line across 145 plate appearances on the campaign.

Segura went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Padres.

The shortstop reached on an error in the bottom of the second and subsequently stole second base. Segura now has five swipes on the season, four of which have come in the last five games. He also extended his hit streak to 13 consecutive games Tuesday, adding a single in the bottom of the seventh. Over that stretch, Segura has batted .417 with four homers, nine RBI, 12 runs and four stolen bases. The hot stretch has raised his season-long batting average from .227 to .307 over 114 at-bats.

Arenado is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mets, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Arenado went 0-for-4 with a strikeout during Game 1 and will take a seat for the nightcap after starting 15 consecutive games. Brendan Donovan will shift to the hot corner while Edmundo Sosa starts at shortstop.

Peterson is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

Peterson will head to the bench after starting seven of the last eight games while seeing action at three different positions. Andrew McCutchen (illness) is expected to return from the COVID-19 injured list later this week and close off a potential avenue to playing time in the outfield, but Peterson could continue to pick up starts in the infield if Willy Adames (ankle) is forced to the 10-day IL.

Longoria is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Longoria has been back from the injured list for less than a week, so it's no surprise that the Giants don't want him starting on four consecutive days just yet. Wilmer Flores will be the third baseman Tuesday.

Hayes is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Hayes' off day is just his fourth this season. While he's yet to homer this season, he's having a strong year at the plate, hitting .293/.390/.371. He's also added three steals. Michael Perez will start at third base in his absence.

Anderson will start in left field and bat fifth in Tuesday's game against the Nationals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

After making four straight starts at the hot corner and going a collective 3-for-14 with a home run, a double, two walks, four runs and two RBI over that span, Anderson will remain in the lineup for the fifth time in a row, this time filling in as an outfielder for the resting Jorge Soler. Anderson should have a clear path to steady playing time at the hot corner for the duration of Joey Wendle's (hamstring) stint on the 10-day injured list before likely transitioning back into a utility role.

The Dodgers promoted Busch from Double-A Tulsa to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Sam Dykstra of MiLB.com reports.

Busch spent the entire 2021 campaign at Tulsa, but he earned the call-up to Oklahoma City after raising his performance at the plate just over five weeks into his second tour of Double-A. Over 137 plate appearances at Tulsa, Busch submitted a 1.112 OPS -- a 242-point jump from his 2021 mark. Even though Busch is 24 years old and likely won't benefit much from further development time on the farm, his lack of a 40-man roster spot along with the Dodgers' impressive depth in both the infield and outfield could hurt his chances of receiving a late-season call-up to the majors.

Farmer (general soreness) will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Tuesday's game in Cleveland.

After sitting out the final two games of the Reds' weekend series in Pittsburgh with the minor injury, Farmer is good to go coming out of Monday's team off day. He should settle back into an everyday role at shortstop, likely closing Alejo Lopez's window to take on extra work in the middle infield.

Newman (groin) is scheduled to begin a minor-league rehab assignment at Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

After incorporating running workouts into his regimen of baseball activities late last week, Newman showed enough progress in his recovery from the left groin strain to advance to the final stage of his rehab program. He'll most likely play in at least two games at Indianapolis before potentially rejoining the Pirates for the start of their homestand Friday. Once activated from the 10-day injured list, Newman should settle back in as the Pirates' everyday shortstop, leaving Rodolfo Castro and Diego Castillo to battle Josh VanMeter for playing time at second base.
