Arenado went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's extra-inning win against Miami.

The 32-year-old walked off the Marlins with a 389-foot shot to left field with two outs in the 10th inning, and he now has seven RBI through the first two games of the series. Arenado scuffled to a .600 OPS during the first month of the season, but his season slash line now sits at .286/.336/.529 with 21 home runs, 71 RBI and 45 runs in 91 games.

Devers (calf) remains out of the lineup Tuesday at Oakland.

Devers is still considered day-to-day after experiencing tightness in his right calf during Sunday's series finale against the Cubs. Justin Turner will play third base and bat third Tuesday versus the Athletics and right-hander Luis Medina. Masataka Yoshida is serving as Boston's designated hitter and cleanup man.

Escobar is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Yankees, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Escobar will take a seat after he went 0-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and two strikeouts in Monday's series opener. Michael Stefanic will draw the start at second base and bat ninth versus New York.

Peterson is not in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Red Sox.

Peterson will sit for a third straight game Tuesday as the A's face off with southpaw Joe Jacques. Aledmys Diaz will draw the start at third base and bat sixth against Boston.

Sosa (leg) is out of the lineup Tuesday versus the Brewers.

Sosa made an early exit from the second half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Padres due to a leg cramp, but he scored a run off the bench in Sunday's series finale and should be available in the same capacity as the Phillies open a three-game set against Milwaukee. Alec Bohm is starting at third base and batting seventh for the Phillies on Tuesday.

Candelario went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored Monday in a 7-5 win against the Cubs.

Candelario was removed from Friday's game against the Cardinals due to a thumb injury and wasn't able to start either Saturday or Sunday. However, he was back in the lineup Monday and showed immediately that the thumb is no longer an issue, smashing a two-run shot in the first inning to give Washington an early lead. Candelario is quietly putting together a solid campaign, slashing .263/.340/.486 with 14 homers, 27 doubles, 45 RBI, 48 runs and five steals over 368 plate appearances.

Arenado went 2-for-3 with a double and four RBI in a 6-4 win against Miami on Monday.

Arenado plated the majority of the Cardinals' runs in the contest, notching an RBI single in the third inning, a sacrifice fly in the fifth and a two-run double in the sixth. The veteran third baseman tied a season high with the four RBI, and he's accomplished that feat four different times during the campaign. Arenado is enjoying a very productive July, slashing .340/.393/.745 with four homers, seven doubles, 14 RBI and nine runs over 13 games.

Peraza went 1-for-1 with four walks, a stolen base and one run scored in Monday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Angels.

Peraza has just a 9.6 percent walk rate at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this year, and he'd drawn just three free passes over 39 plate appearances in the majors. He's got a solid batting eye, but Monday's effort was an impressive one for the infielder, who hit leadoff and started at third base. With Josh Donaldson (calf) potentially facing a season-ending injury, Peraza could have a chance to carve out a regular role before the trade deadline. He has a .235/.409/.265 slash line with four RBI, five runs scored and four stolen bases through 14 contests in the majors this year.

Suarez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 7-6 win over the Twins.

Suarez's seventh-inning blast put the Mariners up 7-3, and they'd need all of the extra cushion to maintain the lead. The third baseman slumped around the All-Star break, going 0-for-12 with seven walks and eight strikeouts over his previous five games. He's up to 12 homers, 54 RBI, 38 runs scored, a stolen base and a .225/.323/.378 slash line through 93 contests.

Wisdom went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Monday's loss to the Nationals.

Wisdom batted ninth but still managed to provide some offense for the Cubs. His lineup placement is likely due to his weak .194 batting average. Wisdom has struggled even more since the beginning of June, going just 5-for-41 (.122) with 22 strikeouts across 16 games. He did miss some time with a wrist sprain, so perhaps he's still trying to find his groove, though Wisdom did bat only .207 last season and isn't known for maintaining a high average.
