McMahon is not in the lineup Sunday at San Diego, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

McMahon went 3-for-3 with a grand slam Friday but is otherwise 0-for-8 with five strikeouts in the series, and he'll take a seat for the finale versus the Friars. Rio Ruiz will start at the hot corner in his place.

The Giants optioned Vosler to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

Vosler was dropped from the 26-man roster to make room for the newly acquired Kris Bryant, who was activated ahead of his team debut Sunday against the Astros. During his latest stint with the big club, Vosler appeared in nine games and went 1-for-14 with a base hit and seven strikeouts.

Muncy is out of the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Muncy will take a maintenance day in the series finale after going 3-for-8 with a double, two walks, an RBI, two runs and a steal through the first two games in Arizona. Albert Pujols will start at first base in his absence.

Donaldson (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

He'll take a seat for the fourth game in a row while he manages a tight right hamstring. Luis Arraez will fill in at third base for Donaldson, who will hope to be ready to go for Tuesday's game in Cincinnati with the benefit of Monday's team off day.

Urshela (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Both Urshela and DJ LeMahieu (triceps) will remain on the bench with their respective injuries for the third game in a row. According to Lindsey Adler of The Athletic, manager Aaron Boone said he expects LeMahieu to rejoin the lineup Monday against Baltimore, while the skipper suggested Urshela is progressing but expected to need more recovery time. A trip to the injured list could be in the offing for Urshela if he fails to take a meaningful step forward in his rehab program in the next day or two.

Kieboom will start at third base and bat sixth Sunday against the Cubs.

After Washington dealt away Trea Turner and Josh Harrison ahead of Friday's trade deadline, Kieboom's spot in the everyday lineup appears fairly secure at this point. He'll draw his fifth start in six games Sunday, even though he's gone just 3-for-17 at the plate since being called up from Triple-A Rochester on July 24.

Urias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

Urias will be on the bench Sunday, but the 27-year-old should be locked in as Baltimore's everyday shortstop for the rest of the season after the injured Freddy Galvis (quadriceps) was shipped to Philadelphia ahead of Friday's trade deadline. The promise of steady playing time should keep Urias relevant in AL-only leagues and perhaps in deeper mixed leagues in which fantasy managers are seeking a boost in batting average. Urias enters Sunday's series finale with a robust .283 average on the season, but his contributions in other categories (four runs, 24 RBI, 19 runs and one stolen base in 169 plate appearances) are fairly lean.

Davis is not in the lineup Sunday against the Reds, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Davis is 0-for-11 with six strikeouts over his past five games and finds himself on the bench for the third straight contest Sunday. Brandon Drury will start at the hot corner in his place.

Newman is out of the lineup Sunday against the Phillies, Jake Crouse of MLB.com reports.

Newman started the first two games of the series and will sit for the finale after going 3-for-7 with a triple, a double, three RBI and a run. Hoy Park will start at shortstop in his place Sunday.

LeMahieu (triceps) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, but manager Aaron Boone said he expects the 33-year-old to rejoin the starting nine Monday versus Baltimore, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

A triceps strain will relegate LeMahieu to the bench for the third consecutive game, but the Yankees are viewing the injury as a day-to-day concern and don't believe he'll require a trip to the injured list. The club's stance could change if LeMahieu isn't feeling quite right when he's re-evaluated Monday, but at this point, all indications are that he's progressing well in his recovery. Anthony Rizzo will spell LeMahieu as the Yankees' leadoff man Sunday, while Rougned Odor fills in for LeMahieu at second base.
