Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Done for the season
Hayes will miss the remainder of the regular season with a broken rib, Pirates Prospects reports.
He missed more than a month with a back issue and had begun a rehab stint before shutting things down with the broken rib. Hayes slashed .263/.319/.393 with six homers and six stolen bases for Low-A West Virginia. The 19-year-old, who will probably advance to High-A Bradenton at some point in 2017, has little competition at the upper organizational levels but is still likely several seasons away from debuting for the Bucs.

Reds' Eugenio Suarez: Homers in Tuesday's loss
Suarez hit his 20th homer in the loss to the Angels on Tuesday, his 20th of the season.
It was the first homer for Suarez in over two weeks. He's now sitting at .248/.316/.429 for the season with those 20 homers, 61 RBI and 65 runs. That's a decent line for a shortstop-eligible player, which Suarez has been this year, but next year he's most likely going to be third base-only in most leagues, with just two games at shortstop so far in 2016.

Jean Segura 3B | CLE
Diamondbacks' Jean Segura: Returns to lineup Tuesday
Segura (illness) is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Giants.
An illness kept Segura from Sunday's series finale against the Reds but he's been deemed good to go following Monday's off day. Despite going 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in his last full game, Segura is still batting .340 in August, his fourth month of the season hitting over .300. He has 15 extra-base hits this month (.567 SLG) and nine steals in 10 attempts.

Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI
Rockies' Nolan Arenado: Drives in league-leading 112th RBI
Arenado went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a run in Monday's 8-1 win over the Dodgers.
Arenado was a little late to the party, but drove in DJ LeMahieu in the seventh for Colorado's sixth run of the game and his 112th RBI of the season. Baseball's leading run producer has been on fire with six multi-hit efforts in his last eight games. Things could get even better in his next eight, with all of them coming at the hitter-friendly Coors Field.

DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY
Rockies' DJ LeMahieu: Drives in three Monday
LeMahieu went 2-for-5 with a double, a run and three RBI against the Dodgers on Monday.
LeMahieu has put up two multi-hit games in three tries since returning from a minor wrist injury, pushing his average up to .344 along the way. He's hitting an even .400 at home, so owners should be licking their chops with the Rockies at Coors Field for their next eight games.

Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI
Rockies' Nolan Arenado: Huge performance in Sunday's win
Arenado went 4-for-4 with a triple, a home run and three RBI in Sunday's win over the Nationals.
He's been on fire recently, hitting .552 (16-for-29) with five homers, 13 RBI and seven runs scored over the last seven games to push his slash line on the season to .291/.361/.576. Perhaps more impressively, Arenado did most of that damage on the road -- only the first of those seven games took place at Coors Field. With the Rockies returning home this week, the All-Star third baseman may not be ready to cool down just yet.

Jean Segura 3B | CLE
Diamondbacks' Jean Segura: Out again with illness
Segura (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Jody Jackson of Fox Sports Arizona reports.
For the second day in a row, Segura is out of Arizona's lineup with an illness. Brandon Drury will start at second and hit seventh Sunday when the Diamondbacks take on Homer Bailey and the Reds. The club has Monday off, so consider Segura day-to-day heading into Tuesday's game against the Giants.

Rockies' DJ LeMahieu: Has three hits in return to lineup Saturday
LeMahieu (wrist) went 3-for-5 with a run in Saturday's 9-4 extra-inning victory over the Nationals.
After missing the prior three games with wrist inflammation, LeMahieu made an encouraging return to the lineup. The 28-year-old has had a jaw-dropping August, with 11 multi-hit efforts, four homers and 13 RBI. He's also now hitting .469 (38-for-81) during the month, bringing his season average to a stellar .347.

Rockies' DJ LeMahieu: Back in lineup Saturday
LeMahieu (wrist) is back in the Rockies' lineup Saturday against Washington, Jenny Cavnar of ROOT Sports reports.
LeMahieu missed the last three games with inflammation in his wrist, but he said Friday that the ailment had begun to clear up. The 28-year-old will be back at his usual second base spot Saturday, and he'll bat second in the order behind leadoff man Charlie Blackmon.
