Stanton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Stanton had served as the Yankees' designated hitter for each of the previous three games, marking the first time since being activated from the 60-day injured list June 16 that he had started more than two contests in a row. He'll be back on the bench Sunday, and Stanton could continue to get at least two or three games off per week if he's unable to get going at the dish. After returning from the IL with a pair of two-hit performances, Stanton has gone 4-for-26 with no extra-base hits and a 4:10 BB:K over his subsequent eight contests.

Ohtani allowed one hit and issued one walk while striking out one batter over two scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Royals on Saturday. He also went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts as a batter.

While Ohtani didn't have his highest pitch count of the campaign -- his 27 pitches Saturday were one fewer than he accumulated during his season debut on the mound June 16 -- he took another step forward by tossing more than one inning for the first time as a Dodger. The two-way star also made a strong statement about how far he's come in his recovery from Tommy John surgery by pumping in a 101.7 mph fastball -- the fastest of his career. Ohtani now was three starts under his belt as a pitcher this season, allowing one run on three hits with a 3:1 K:BB over four innings. He'll likely continue to build up gradually, so fantasy managers should still view him as an opener during his turns in the rotation until he gets a longer leash to pitch deeper into games.

Manzardo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

With southpaw Matthew Liberatore on the bump for the Cardinals, Manzardo will join fellow left-handed hitters Bo Naylor, Daniel Schneemann and Nolan Jones on the bench. David Fry will replace Manzardo as the Guardians' designated hitter.

Ramirez went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 8-7 victory over Arizona.

Ramirez cracked an RBI double in the first inning and later delivered the game-winning RBI single in the top of the 10th inning to help lift Miami to victory. While the rookie catcher doesn't reach base at a high clip, carrying a .299 OBP with a 6.2 percent walk rate, his power has been a clear strength. Ramirez has racked up 15 doubles and 12 home runs over 57 games for a .478 SLG.

Alvarez (hand) took 25 swings in the batting cage Saturday and is scheduled to do so again Sunday, MLB.com reports.

Alvarez first resumed swinging June 24 and has been sidelined since early May. He is likely to need a rehab assignment but is hoping to return before the All-Star break.

Suzuki went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, an additional run and a triple against the Astros in a 12-3 win Saturday.

Suzuki tripled and scored in the fourth inning and added a two-run homer in the eighth. The 30-year-old outfielder has been racking up extra-base hits this season -- among his 83 total knocks, 44 have gone for extra bases. Suzuki set a career high with his 22nd homer Saturday, and with 69 RBI he's very close to the career-best mark of 74 that he established in 2023.

Trout went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-2 win over the Nationals.

Trout tied the game at 2-2 in the seventh inning, igniting a six-run rally by the Angels in that frame. The outfielder has homered three times over his last 14 games, going 12-for-47 (.255) while adding a 16:19 BB:K in that span. While he's batting just .231 for the year, he's getting on base at a .345 clip as he continues to display his trademark excellent plate discipline. Trout is at 13 homers, 31 RBI, 28 runs scored and two stolen bases over 56 contests.

Diaz went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk Saturday against the Orioles.

Diaz returned to the third spot in the Rays' order after leading off for seven consecutive games. He blasted his 13th home run of the season in the fourth inning while also tallying his 14th multi-hit effort in his last 23 starts. In June, Diaz is batting .408 with five home runs, 13 RBI and 16 runs scored across 93 at-bats.

McCutchen went 2-for-4 with a two-run single and a run scored in Saturday's 9-2 win over the Mets.

McCutchen played a key role in the Pirates' six-run eighth inning, when he drove in a two-run single before coming around to score on a Bryan Reynolds two-run double. McCutchen has reached base safely in nine of his last 11 starts, and over that span he has gone 14-for-47 (.298) with two home runs and five RBI.

Sheets went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and two doubles in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Reds.

Sheets gave the Padres a 6-4 lead in the seventh inning with a 422-foot blast that held up as the game-winning play. It was the 29-year-old's first homer since June 14, and he snapped a 3-for-18 slump over his previous five games. He's now slashing .265/.322/.470 with 13 long balls, 49 RBI, 33 runs scored and one steal across 295 plate appearances in what's shaping up to be a career-best campaign.
