Vientos went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 11-8 loss to the Marlins.

Vientos jump-started the Mets' offense with a three-run homer in the third inning. After seeing his 10-game hitting streak end Thursday, he's bounced back by homering on consecutive days for the third time in August. The 25-year-old began the month with seven long balls but is now up to 15 on the year while carrying a .246/.293/.439 slash line, 53 RBI and 37 runs scored across 375 plate appearances.

Harris isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.

Harris will miss a second consecutive start since going 2-for-3 with a walk and three runs scored during Wednesday's game against Detroit. Darell Hernaiz will get the nod at third base instead and bat eighth.

McKinstry isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.

McKinstry will sit down Saturday after making seven consecutive starts, going 7-for-24 with a homer, three RBI and four runs scored in the process. Trey Sweeney will take his place at shortstop and bat eighth.

House isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

House will miss back-to-back starts to begin the series, though he managed to collect a base hit during his pinch-hit appearance Friday. Paul DeJong will pick up another start at the hot corner and bat third.

Clement (finger/shin) is not starting Saturday versus the Brewers.

Clement will begin on the bench for a second straight game while dealing with a hairline fracture in his left middle finger and a laceration to his left shin. At this point, the Blue Jays don't seem inclined to move Clement to the IL, and he's considered day-to-day. Addison Barger is starting at third base with Clement out Saturday.

Chapman went 1-for-3 with two RBI, two runs scored and one walk in Friday's 15-8 win over the Orioles.

Chapman hit an infield single with the bases loaded in the first inning, driving in San Francisco's first run before later coming around to score. The third baseman added another RBI on a sacrifice fly in the second and drew a walk in the fourth before scoring again. Chapman had struggled earlier this month before being placed on the 10-day injured list due to right hand inflammation. Since being reinstated after a minimum stay, he's slashing .286/.385/.619 with seven runs scored, six RBI, two home runs and two stolen bases across 26 plate appearances in six games.

The Brewers designated Dunn for assignment Saturday.

Dunn hasn't appeared in a game for the Brewers since mid-April and is slashing .201/.304/.326 at Triple-A Nashville since being sent down. Now that Robert Gasser (elbow) has returned from the 60-day IL, Dunn will end up as the odd man out of a spot on Milwaukee's 40-man roster. His poor performance in the minors makes it likely he'll pass through waivers unclaimed.

Norby went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Friday's loss to the Mets.

Activated off the IL earlier in the day after recovering from wrist surgery, Norby got the start at third base and batted sixth in his first big-league action since July 11. The 25-year-old will hold down the starting job at the hot corner until Graham Pauley (oblique) gets healthy, at which point the Marlins could have a tough decision to make -- Norby has a .244/.291/.368 slash line in 73 games this season, while Pauley had a .254/.371/.492 line in 26 games after getting called back up from Triple-A Jacksonville when Norby went down.

Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Alexander's role will shift from primary starter at third base to playing various spots around the field after top prospect Jordan Lawlar was called up to the majors, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

Alexander had been the primary starter at third base since the Eugenio Suarez trade but slid over to second base Friday while Lawlar manned the hot corner. Lovullo said Lawlar would be limited to the left side of the infield -- shortstop or third base -- and would start against all lefties, while the manager does a mix-and-match against righties. Lovullo also said the righty-hitting Alexander could get starts in center field, where the Diamondbacks are lefty heavy.

Alexander went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 3-0 win over the Dodgers.

Aelxander is up to seven homers this season, and three of them have come over his last seven games. The infielder has gone 7-for-25 (.280) with four walks and nine strikeouts in that span. He's up to a .234/.331/.441 slash line with 19 RBI, 21 runs scored and two stolen bases over 168 plate appearances. Alexander has gotten most of his recent playing time at third base, though he covered second base while Ketel Marte served as designated hitter in Friday's contest.
