Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Ohtani (elbow) will throw another live batting practice session early this week, which may "potentially" be the right-hander's final live throwing session before he makes his Dodgers debut as a pitcher, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Ohtani -- who remains in the lineup at designated hitter and as the Dodgers' leadoff batter in Sunday's game against the Giants -- built up to 44 pitches and three innings in his most recent live BP outing Tuesday, per MLB.com. He'll likely be targeting around 50 or 55 pitches in his upcoming throwing session, and if all goes well, Ohtani may finally be given the green light to operate as a two-way player for the first time since Aug. 23, 2023, when he made his last appearance as a pitcher for the Angels before undergoing his second career Tommy John surgery just under a month later. Because Ohtani won't be fully stretched out for a traditional starter's workload by the time he's cleared to make his debut on the mound, Roberts said that the 30-year-old will initially be used as a multi-inning opener in bullpen games and will gradually build up his pitch counts.

McCutchen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

McCutchen will get a chance to catch his breath after starting eight straight games. Alexander Canario will pick up a start in right field while Bryan Reynolds occupies McCutchen's usual spot at designated hitter.

Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Marte has been a lineup regular of late and has an .865 OPS through 11 games in June, but he'll take a seat Sunday. Francisco Lindor is resting his legs as the designated hitter while Luisangel Acuna receives a start at shortstop.

Ohtani went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs, two walks and three total runs scored in Saturday's 11-5 win over the Giants.

Ohtani was off to a bit of a quiet start in June, going just 11-for-48 (.229) with four extra-base hits and a 4:14 BB:K over his first 12 games of the month. He got things back on track with a big performance Saturday, which included a leadoff homer in the bottom of the first inning as well as a second solo shot in the sixth. Ohtani leads the National League with 25 homers and is one behind Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh for the major-league lead. Ohtani has added a .290/.385/.638 slash line, 41 RBI, 71 runs scored, 11 stolen bases, 11 doubles and five triples across 69 contests.

Sheets went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and two total runs scored in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Sheets has hit safely in five straight games, going 7-for-18 (.389) in that span. The homer was his first since May 28 versus the Marlins. The 29-year-old is up to 12 long balls on the season, which is already the second-highest mark in his five-year career. He's added a .261/.318/.477 slash line with 40 RBI, 25 runs scored, nine doubles, one triple and one stolen base across 66 games.

Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Friday's 12-4 win over the Rockies.

Ozuna established a season high in RBI while crushing his 11th homer of the year, a three-run shot in the seventh inning off Victor Vodnik. The 34-year-old slugger has struggled to find his power stroke lately, slashing just .208/.310/.306 with two long balls, one double and 10 RBI over his last 84 plate appearances, but Ozuna does have 10 walks during that 19-game span.

Ramirez went 3-for-5 with two solo home runs and an additional run scored in Friday's 11-9 win over the Nationals.

Ramirez -- who went 0-for-18 with five strikeouts in his four games prior to Friday -- wasted no time getting the Marlins on the board with a solo homer in the first inning, and the 23-year-old backstop followed that up with another solo shot in the fourth. Ramirez is up to 10 home runs this season, which leads all rookies and is tied with Shea Langeliers (oblique) for fifth most among catchers.

Marte went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a walk in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Rays.

The three RBI set a season high for Marte, who is heating up at the dish lately. Over his last 30 at-bats, Marte is hitting .333 with one home run, two doubles, four RBI and eight runs scored. Marte has essentially been functioning as New York's primary designated hitter while Mark Vientos (hamstring) and Jesse Winker (oblique) have been sidelined, so he has a short-term boost in fantasy appeal.

Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 8-0 win over the Blue Jays.

Schwarber handed the Phillies a four-run lead in the second inning when he took Kevin Gausman deep to center field for a 410-foot, three-run homer. Schwarber has struggled at the plate since the beginning of June (5-for-38), but he has gone deep in back-to-back games, and his 22 home runs this season ranks second in the National League behind Shohei Ohtani (23).

Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said Friday that Winker (oblique) is multiple weeks away from beginning a rehab assignment, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

Winker suffered a Grade 2 oblique strain against the Cardinals on May 4 and has done very little in terms of baseball activities since. Prior to being injured, Winker slashed .239/.321/.418 with one home run, 10 RBI, eight runs scored, one stolen base and a 9:20 BB:K across 78 plate appearances.
