Karros went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Karros had gone 1-for-12 with a walk and two strikeouts over his previous four games. His homer Tuesday ended a 19-game stretch without a long ball. The third baseman hasn't been able to tap into much consistent power this year with just 10 homers over 112 contests. He's slashing .265/.361/.424 with 44 RBI, 58 runs scored, 20 doubles, two triples and five stolen bases.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Tuesday's 8-6 win over the Nationals.

After tallying three hits in his last game Sunday, Bregman stayed locked in at the plate as he delivered his 13th home run of the season in the sixth inning Tuesday. The veteran third baseman is having a solid month so far with an .824 OPS, two long balls and seven RBI in 10 August contests. Bregman appears to be heating up in time for Chicago's playoff push, which is also good news for fantasy managers who have remained patient throughout the year while the 32-year-old struggled to get going.

The Pirates reinstated Yorke (shoulder) from the minor-league 7-day injured list Tuesday, Dominic Campbell of SI.com reports.

Yorke was on the 7-day injured list since June 18 due to a shoulder injury. He has rejoined Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday after spending his rehab assignment with Single-A Bradenton.

The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

There's no word yet on the corresponding roster move, but Pauley's promotion could signify Kyle Stowers (hamstring) is a candidate for the injured list. Pauley has slashed a dreadful .190/.229/.300 with one home run and a 5:25 BB:K over 41 games with the big club this season.

Arenado went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and a stolen base in Monday's 9-0 win over the Rockies.

Arenado set the tone early with a first-inning slam, allowing the Diamondbacks to cruise to the win. This was his fourth homer over nine games in August, and he's batting .250 (8-for-32) with eight RBI this month. The third baseman is hitting .242 with a .755 OPS, 18 homers, 58 RBI, 55 runs scored, 20 doubles and four steals over 113 contests this year, and he's trending up as Arizona remains in the thick of the playoff race.

Baty went 1-for-3 with a grand slam and a walk in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta.

Baty broke things open in the first inning with his first career grand slam off Bryce Elder. The 26-year-old Baty has gone just 4-for-27 over his past 10 games, but two of those hits have left the yard. On the season, he's slashing .215/.286/.330 with eight homers, 38 RBI, 42 runs scored and five steals across 379 plate appearances.

Bohm is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Bohm drew two walks and recorded two base hits Sunday against the Blue Jays, but after playing all 12 innings of the Phillies' 7-6 win, he'll be given a breather as Philadelphia opens up a three-game set in St. Louis. Kyle Schwarber will step in at first base in place of Bohm, who has gotten on base in each of his first eight starts of August.

Mathis (undisclosed) has gone 1-for-11 with a double, three walks, two RBI and a run scored in three games for High-A Brooklyn since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Acquired from the Cubs in a June 25 deal that sent left-hander David Peterson back to Chicago, Mathis didn't make his Mets organizational debut until July 23 while he recovered from an unspecified injury that had kept him on the shelf at High-A South Bend since June 21. After appearing in six rehab games between the rookie-level Florida Complex League and Single-A St. Lucie, Mathis was given the green light to join the Mets' South Atlantic League affiliate.

Reimer (groin) has gone 3-for-16 with one walk, four RBI and three runs in four games for Double-A Binghamton since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Reimer had been on the shelf since June 18 while recovering from a groin strain. The 22-year-old third baseman has turned in a .212/.318/.379 slash line with six home runs and 12 stolen bases over 54 games with Binghamton on the season.

Sanoja went 2-for-4 with three RBI and one run scored in Sunday's 12-3 win over the Angels.

Sanoja delivered an RBI single in the fourth inning before driving in two more in the fifth. The 23-year-old has now hit safely in seven of eight August contests, going 10-for-27 with five extra-base hits and seven RBI during that stretch. On the year, he's slashing .274/.312/.411 with four homers, 42 RBI, 29 runs scored and six stolen bases across 318 plate appearances.
