Pederson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

With southpaw James Paxton on the bump for the Dodgers, the lefty-hitting Pederson will hit the bench for the series opener. Blaze Alexander will get a day out of the infield and will serve as the Diamondbacks' designated hitter in Pederson's place.

Stewart is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Stewart is on the bench for the third time in five games. As expected, he's become the odd man out of the Mets' everyday lineup versus right-handed pitching after New York added designated hitter J.D. Martinez to the 26-man active roster Friday.

McCutchen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

McCutchen started the previous three games and will head to the bench after going 1-for-12 with two walks and five strikeouts. Edward Olivares will bat fifth as the designated hitter Sunday for the Pirates.

Blackmon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

Blackmon will sit Sunday as lefty Framber Valdez takes the mound for the Astros. Elias Diaz will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Jacob Stallings starts behind the plate.

Soler went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Pirates.

Soler's 10th-inning blast got the Giants within a run, but the comeback effort fell short. He went 0-for-12 with one walk and six strikeouts over the previous three games. Soler's power is at an acceptable level (five homers, .414 slugging percentage) through 28 games, but he's batting just .222 with a .736 OPS, well under his .250 average and .853 OPS from last season.

Martinez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Martinez went 3-for-8 with a double, an RBI and five strikeouts in his first two games with the Mets but will take a seat for Sunday's series finale versus St. Louis. DJ Stewart will step in as the designated hitter and bat cleanup.

Burleson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

The Cardinals are giving Willson Contreras a day off behind the plate and having him serve as the designated hitter, so Burleson will bow out of the lineup as Ivan Herrera enters the starting nine at catcher. Burleson had served as St. Louis' DH in both of the past two games, going 2-for-5 with a home run, two walks and three RBI.

The Mets recalled Vientos from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Vientos has slashed .302/.388/.525 across 98 plate appearances in Triple-A, and he'll now join the big-league club as Starling Marte (personal) steps away from the team. Vientos will likely head back to Syracuse following Marte's return.

Martinez went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Cardinals.

He also struck out twice, but Martinez made a quick impact in his debut for the Mets, chasing Miles Mikolas from the game in the sixth inning with a run-scoring double. Martinez posted big numbers in only 113 games for the Dodgers last year, slashing .271/.321/.572 with 33 homers and 103 RBI, and once he's shaken off his rust the 36-year-old should be a potent addition to the middle of the New York batting order.

Burleson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Friday's 4-2 win over the Mets.

His second-inning shot off Jose Butto gave Miles Mikolas and the Cardinals' bullpen all the offense they would need. It was Burleson's first long ball of the year, and his first extra-base hit since April 8. Jordan Walker's demotion cements Burleson into a strong-side platoon role, but his .259/.310/.352 slash line through 58 plate appearances with three runs and five RBI doesn't offer a lot of fantasy appeal.
