Rivera was designated for assignment by Miami on Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Rivera will be subjected to waivers after hitting just .183 with three RBI over 34 games this season with the Marlins. Hector Noesi was promoted to the big leagues in a corresponding move.

Newman went 1-for-4 with a three-run double against Milwaukee on Monday.

He's showing few signs of slowing down the way he did in 2018, when he struggled as a September callup. Newman has swiped four bases in his last six starts and continues to hit -- he's slashing .310/.354/.426. Interestingly, he's posted identical career batting averages (.287) to date in both the minor and major leagues.

Anderson went 4-for-7 with three doubles and three runs scored across both games of Monday's doubleheader against the Mets.

His barrage of two-baggers didn't help the Marlins win either end of the twin bill, but it did continue an impressive power display from Anderson. Over his last 10 games, the 26-year-old is slashing .324/.409/.730 with four homers and eight RBI in addition to Monday's doubles.

Segura went 2-for-4 with a walk and a pair of RBI in Monday's win over Arizona.

Batting out of the fifth spot for the first time in over a month, rather than his usual No. 2 spot, Segura came through twice with runners in scoring position. He drove in Bryce Harper with an RBI single in the third inning and knocked in Cesar Hernandez with another single in the seventh. Segura has hit .375/.457/.500 over his last 10 games, with twice as many multi-hit performances (six) as strikeouts (three).

Davis went 2-for-2 with a double and a solo home run in the second game of Monday's doubleheader sweep of the Marlins.

After getting the start in left field in the matinee and going 0-for-2 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored, Davis was on the bench to begin the nightcap but entered the lineup as part of a double switch before going yard in the seventh -- the first of three solo shots by the Mets in the inning that turned the game around. The 26-year-old is slashing .371/.452/.597 with three homers and 10 RBI in 20 games since the All-Star break, and with Jeff McNeil likely to be needed more frequently at second base in the wake of a potentially season-ending injury to Robinson Cano (hamstring), Davis should be a fixture in an outfield corner as long as he's raking.

Rendon went 2-for-5 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's 4-0 win over the Giants.

It was a rare stolen base for Rendon; his second of the year matches his total from the 2018 season. Monday was also his second multi-hit outing over the last three days, bumping his slash line to .317/.402/.604 in 430 plate appearances.

Senzel went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Monday against the Angels.

Senzel extended Cincinnati's lead to four in the first inning, plating a pair of runs on a single to right field. The 24-year-old has pieced together a .278/.335/.458 slash line with eight homers and 33 RBI over 75 games this season for the Reds.

Longoria is not in the lineup Monday against the Nationals.

Longoria returned from a three-week stay on the injured list Sunday, going 1-for-4 in what was his first game since July 14. He'll give way to Pablo Sandoval on Monday as the Giants look to ease him back into action.

Davis went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a walk Sunday in the Mets' 13-2 win over the Pirates.

Davis and Michael Conforto both left the yard in the top of the first inning to stake the Mets to an early lead they wouldn't relinquish. Victors of nine of their last 10 games, the Mets enter Monday's doubleheader versus the Marlins just one game under .500, with Davis' efforts during that stretch aiding the resurgence. Over the past 10 contests, Davis has gone 11-for-30 (.367 average) with two home runs, seven RBI, five runs and a 6:8 BB:K. He'll man left field and bat fifth in the first game of Monday's twin bill and should be locked into a full-time role for the duration of Dominic Smith's (foot) stay on the injured list.

Muncy went 4-for-5 with a home run, two doubles, three runs scored and three RBI in Sunday's walk-off win over San Diego.

Muncy put the Dodgers on the board with a solo shot in the second inning, but his biggest hit came with a pair of runners on base in the ninth. After battling Padres closer Kirby Yates to a full count and fouling off a pair of splitters, he lined a fastball into the right field corner to plate the winning runs. The walk-off hit was the first in the regular season in Muncy's career, though he cemented a spot in baseball lore with his 18th-inning walk-off homer to defeat Boston in game three of the World Series last year. Through 447 plate appearances this season, the 28-year-old is slashing .265/.371/.528 with 27 home runs and 74 runs batted in.
