Jung went 1-for-3 in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Cardinals.

Jung made his return to the majors after missing 102 games with a wrist injury. He slotted in seventh in the batting order, which could be a temporary placement in a low-pressure slot as he acclimates to MLB pitching. When healthy and firing on all cylinders, Jung is expected to bat third, fourth or fifth.

Espinal started at designated hitter and went 4-for-4 with two doubles, a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cubs.

Espinal was in the starting lineup for a third consecutive game; with the Reds awaiting the arrival of Ty France, who was acquired Monday, Espinal slotted in at DH for the night. Once France arrives, it is expected that he and Jeimer Candelario will most frequently handle first base/DH.

Machado went 2-for-4 with two solo homers in Tuesday's win over the Dodgers.

Machado got the Padres on the board in the second inning with a 410-foot blast to center off Tyler Glasnow. He then jumpstarted a ninth-inning comeback by leading off the frame with his second homer of the night. Machado now has nine homers and 20 RBI over his last 26 games after totaling just seven homers and 38 RBI in his first 75 games of the year. The 31-year-old is slashing .265/.317/.432 with 33 extra-base hits, 51 runs, five steals and a 29:87 BB:K in 420 plate appearances this season.

Suarez went 4-for-6 with three homers, five RBI and four runs scored in Tuesday's 17-0 win over the Nationals.

Suarez kicked things off with a two-run blast off Patrick Corbin in the first inning. He followed that up with solo shots in the sixth and seventh for his second career three-homer game. Coming into July, Suarez had hit just six homers and 32 RBI while batting .196 through 80 games. He's completely turned it around in July, slashing .326/.394/.744 with 10 homers and 27 RBI in 24 games. He's the first Diamondbacks player with more than nine homers and 25 RBI in a month since Eduardo Escobar did it in 2019. For the season, the 32-year-old is now slashing .227/.307/.414 with 34 extra-base hits, 59 RBI, 49 runs, two steals and a 37:117 BB:K in 414 plate appearances.

Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Tigers.

Ramirez has gone 9-for-29 (.310) with four homers and seven RBI over his last eight games. The third baseman is up to 27 long balls this season, giving him an excellent chance of reaching 30 for the third time in his career with a reasonable chance to reach 40 for the first time. He's added a .275/.329/.531 slash line with 87 RBI, 77 runs scored and 20 stolen bases through 104 contests.

McMahon went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Angels.

McMahon's blast gave the Rockies a 6-2 advantage in the second inning, but they didn't hold the lead for long. The infielder has gone 15 games without a multi-hit effort, batting a poor .170 in that span, though he has drawn 11 walks. For the season, he's at a .262/.348/.440 slash line with 16 homers, 50 RBI, 51 runs scored, 21 doubles and three stolen bases over 104 contests. After staying put at the trade deadline, McMahon should continue to occupy a starting role in the heart of the lineup.

Rengifo went 3-for-5 with a stolen base and three runs scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Rockies.

This was Rengifo's first multi-hit effort in seven games since he returned from a bout of wrist inflammation. The infielder was one of four Angels with multiple hits in Tuesday's high-scoring contest. He's up to a .306/.352/.424 slash line with 24 steals, six home runs, 30 RBI and 41 runs scored over 76 games this season.

Riley went 4-for-5 with one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Brewers.

Riley has four multi-hit efforts and five hitless games over 10 contests since the All-Star break. This was his best of that span, though all four of his hits Tuesday were singles. The third baseman is batting .284 (25-for-88) over 23 games in July, lifting him up to a .259/.326/.452 slash line for the year. Riley has added 14 home runs, 43 RBI, 52 runs scored, 22 doubles and two triples across 92 contests. Barring a late surge, he'll miss the 30-homer mark for the first time since the abbreviated 2020 campaign.

Chisholm went 3-for-6 with a pair of home runs and five RBI in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Phillies.

Chisholm has certainly made an early impression in New York -- he took Aaron Nola for a solo homer in the sixth inning before launching a three-run shot off left-hander Matt Strahm in the seventh to put the Yankees ahead 5-4. It's the second straight two-homer game for Chisholm, who's gone 6-for-15 with four round trippers and eight RBI in three games since he was traded from Miami. He's now slashing .254/.327/.436 through 446 plate appearances this year with 17 homers, 58 RBI, 51 runs scored and 23 stolen bases.

Urias went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Toronto.

Urias led off the third inning with an opposite-field blast off Chris Bassitt, his fifth homer of the year and first since June 19. Urias would also record his second three-hit game this season -- he'd gone just 2-for-18 in seven contests prior to Tuesday. Overall, 30-year-old Urias is slashing .244/.316/.384 with 18 RBI and 20 runs scored across 190 plate appearances. He's seen his playing time tick up since Jorge Mateo (elbow) was placed on the IL. However, despite his performance Tuesday, Urias will likely return to a utility role following Jackson Holliday's recall to the majors.
