Biggio was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Monday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Biggio appears to be the odd man out on the Dodgers' 40-man roster with Freddie Freeman (personal) being activated from the restricted list Monday. Biggio will now be placed on waivers and if he goes unclaimed, he'll either report to Triple-A Oklahoma City or elect free agency, the latter of which seems more likely. Over 30 games with the Dodgers this season, Biggio has produced a .192 average with three home runs, 10 RBI and 11 runs scored.

Lee is dealing with right shoulder soreness, leading to his absence from the lineup for a second straight day Monday against the Cubs, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Lee was on the bench for Sunday's series finale with the White Sox and he'll sit Monday as well, which is now understood to be the result of some lingering shoulder soreness. On the bright side, manager Rocco Baldelli said Monday that Lee could have started the series opener versus the Cubs, so he'll likely be back in action soon.

Toro is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

After starting four consecutive games, Toro will take a seat Monday against rookie starter Ky Bush and the White Sox. Darell Hernaiz will fill the hot corner and bat eighth.

Duran is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

Duran had started in each of the last three games, but with Wyatt Langford (back) returning to action as the Rangers' designated hitter following a two-game absence, Duran will retreat to the bench. Now that the Rangers are at full strength in the infield and outfield save for Evan Carter (back) -- who is out for the season -- Duran will likely be relegated to a short-side platoon role.

DeJong is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox.

DeJong had started in three consecutive games, going 3-for-11 with a home run and four RBI during that stretch. However, he'll give way to Maikel Garcia at third base Monday.

Lipscomb is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Giants, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Lipscomb will get a chance to clear his head after going 0-for-7 in his last three starts. Ildemaro Vargas will bat eighth and play third base Monday.

Miranda is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Miranda will get the night off Monday against Kyle Hendricks and the Cubs. Royce Lewis will play third base while Matt Wallner operates as the Twins' designated hitter.

Lee is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Lee started in 24 consecutive games after being called up from Triple-A St. Paul, but he's been out of the starting nine in consecutive games, with both absences coming against righties. Austin Martin will cover second base once again and may have vaulted ahead of Lee on the depth chart while the latter player has slashed .174/.259/.174 over his last seven games.

Vientos is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

After making 12 consecutive starts, Vientos will get the night off Monday. Jose Iglesias will fill in for Vientos at the hot corner and bat sixth.

Rivera went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

The 28-year-old has started five of the last six games for the Marlins as he gets a chance to lock down the starting job at third base. Rivera has gone 5-for-20 with his first homer and second steal of the season during that stretch, and while his career .662 OPS in the majors over 947 plate appearances doesn't suggest he has much fantasy upside, he is at least a defensive upgrade at the hot corner on Jake Burger
