Rendon went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and three RBI in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

He didn't flash any power, but Rendon still featured prominently in the Nats' 11-run attack. The third baseman is now slashing .333/.424/.548 through 22 games in July with three homers, 11 runs and 18 RBI.

Senzel went hitless in three at-bats in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Rockies before being ejected in the fourth inning for arguing balls and strikes.

The ejection was the first of Senzel's young MLB career and prevented him from building on his four-game hitting streak. Senzel is unlikely to face any further discipline for the incident and should remain in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates.

Devers went 3-for-5 with two doubles and two runs Saturday in the Red Sox's 9-5 win over the Yankees.

Devers has been a menace for the Yankees' pitching staff through the first three games of the series, totaling eight hits -- including five doubles and a home run -- over 15 at-bats. Boston's newly christened No. 2 hitter will stick in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale.

Segura was diagnosed with a right shin contusion after leaving Sunday's game against the Braves, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

It initially looked like a knee issue for Segura, who sustained the injury on a tag play at second base on Ronald Acuna's stolen base attempt. The 29-year-old will have Monday's scheduled off day to help his recovery before missing any additional time. According to Breen, manager Gabe Kapler said the team doesn't have any long-term concerns regarding the injury.

LeMahieu (groin) is not in the lineup for Sunday night's game against the Red Sox, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

LeMahieu is nursing a low-grade groin strain and believed he could play through the injury Sunday, but it's no real surprise to see the Yankees take a more cautious approach. The veteran infielder will now have two extra days to recover thanks to Monday's scheduled off day, and he hopes to be ready to roll by that time, per Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record. Gio Urshela receives another start at the hot corner in his place.

Segura was removed from Sunday's game against the Braves with an apparent right knee injury, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Segura suffered the injury while applying a tag on Ronald Acuna -- who also exited the game -- on a stolen-base attempt, and he was unable to put much weight on his right leg when leaving the field. The severity of the injury is currently unclear, but the fact Segura required help walking off the field is a troubling sign.

Peterson will start at third base and bat sixth Sunday against the Angels, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

Peterson will make his third consecutive start, including his second in a row at the hot corner. The Orioles' decision to demote Rio Ruiz to Triple-A Norfolk opens up some playing time for Peterson, but if the 29-year-old's previous record at the major-league level is any indication, he'll likely fail to take advantage. Over 1,537 career plate appearances, Peterson owns a .229/.318/.329 line (77 wRC+).

Muncy went 2-for-4 with a walk, three runs and an RBI in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Nationals.

Muncy made his second consecutive start at second base in the contest and looks on track to see most of his playing time at that position for the foreseeable future with Enrique Hernandez (hand) on track to join Chris Taylor (forearm) on the 10-day injured list. The increased defensive versatility is just another boon to Muncy's fantasy value, which gets a greater bump in leagues that count on-base percentage rather than batting average as a category.

Moustakas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Moustakas had his 12-game hit streak snapped Monday and is 0-for-11 in his last four games, so he'll head to the bench with left-hander Jose Quintana taking the mound for Chicago. Tyler Saladino will start at the hot corner in his absence.

Bregman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.

Since the Astros are wrapping up their series in St. Louis with a day game and have one fewer lineup spot than usual with no designated hitter available, manager AJ Hinch decided it was an optimal time to extend Bregman a breather. Aledmys Diaz will fill in at third base while Bregman bows out of the starting nine for the first time since July 12.
