Ramirez went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and stolen base in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Minnesota.

The third baseman has logged seven of his 21 stolen bases this year in his last 16 games. Ramirez, along with Myles Straw, were the only Cleveland batters to reach base multiple times in Tuesday's low-scoring contest. Through 126 games, Ramirez is slashing .261/.352/.546 with 32 home runs, 86 RBI and 91 runs scored as the brightest star in Cleveland's offense.

Bregman went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and three RBI in Tuesday's victory against the Mariners.

The 27-year-old doubled and drove in teammate Michael Brantley in the third inning and singled in the fifth inning before tying the game in the ninth with a two-run blast off Paul Sewald. Since returning from the injured list Aug. 25, Bregman has secured at least one hit in 10 out of 11 games while batting .357 and striking out only three times in 42 at-bats.

Muncy will sit Tuesday against St. Louis, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Muncy has been in a slump over his last 16 games, hitting .133/.212/.283 while striking out 30.3 percent of the time, well above the 18.2 percent strikeout rate he'd managed prior to that point. He'll rest against lefty J.A. Happ, with Albert Pujols starting at first base against his former team.

Sosa is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

The shortstop will receive the day off after appearing in the last four games for the Cardinals. Paul DeJong gets the start at shortstop and is batting seventh.

Urias (upper leg) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Kansas City.

Urias left Sunday's game against the Yankees due to upper leg soreness, and the issue will force him out of the lineup for a second straight contest. Kelvin Gutierrez will start at the hot corner and bat ninth.

Walls was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

Walls had been back with the big-league squad since the start of September but went just 2-for-15 at the plate in five games, dropping his season slash line to .203/.301/.305 across 147 plate appearances. He'll head to the minors as the Rays recall reliever Louis Head.

Toro went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk and two RBI in Monday's 11-2 loss to the Astros.

Toro doubled home the only two runs of the game for the Mariners after sending a ball to deep left field off Lance McCullers in the third inning. The 24-year-old has four multi-hit efforts over his last six games and has nine RBI over that span. Since coming over from Houston, Toro is slashing .314/.394/.457 with four homers, 21 RBI, 17 runs scored, two steals and 15:18 BB:K over 37 games.

McMahon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and a hit-by-pitch in the loss to the Giants on Monday.

The 27-year-old opened up the scoring for his team in this one with a solo blast off of Kevin Gausman in the second inning. After posting a 10-game hitting streak in early August, McMahon has struggled to a .192 batting average with five total extra-base hits in 73 at-bats over 21 games. On the season, he has still posted a career-high .255 batting average while hitting 21 home runs.

Segura went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, two runs scored and a walk in Monday's 12-0 victory over Milwaukee.

Segura scored a run in the first inning on Bryce Harper's two-run homer. He later crushed a grand slam as part of a seven-run eighth inning. The veteran infielder has produced multiple hits in six of his last 11 games, raising his season slash line to .295/.358/.441 with 11 long balls and 49 RBI.

Hayes went 3-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 6-3 win over the Tigers.

Hayes ripped three singles in the victory, including a two-run base knock in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old entered Monday's game in a 12-for-58 (.207) skid in 16 games since his last multi-hit performance on Aug 14. He improved his season slash line to .252/.321/.376 with 30 RBI through 321 plate appearances.
