Winn went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.

Winn was an effective table-setter Monday, scoring twice on hits by Alec Burleson as the Cardinals got three-hit efforts from the first two batters in the lineup. Over his last 11 games, Winn has gone 17-for-47 (.362) with four extra-base hits. The shortstop continues to impress in his first full season, maintaining a .282/.329/.420 slash line with 11 home runs, 10 stolen bases, 46 RBI, 63 runs scored, 23 doubles and four triples through 122 contests.

The Marlins designated Gray for assignment Sunday.

Gray lost his spot on the 40-man roster to right-hander Mike Baumann, whom the Marlins claimed off waivers from the Angels on Sunday. A 28-year-old infielder, Gray received brief cups of coffee with the Marlins in May and June but has otherwise spent the entire 2024 campaign at Triple-A Jacksonville, slashing .240/.312/.454 with 17 home runs over 410 plate appearances.

Tovar, who was given the day off Monday while dealing with a sports hernia, is expected to be in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

The Rockies failed to disclose much about Tovar's issue prior to this point, which could be one of the causes for his struggles at the dish so far in August. However, the issue shouldn't force the 23-year-old shortstop to miss additional time assuming he feels ready to play ahead of Tuesday's matchup.

Swanson went 1-for-3 with a walk, a grand slam and an additional run scored in Monday's 18-8 win over the Pirates.

Swanson's grand slam in the sixth inning was part of an eight-run frame for the Cubs as the team broke things open. The shortstop is now up to 11 long balls this season, including two in his last seven contests. Swanson hit at least 20 homers in each of the last three years, so he'll need to really heat up down the stretch to reach that plateau once again.

Tovar is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.

Aaron Schunk will handle shortstop duties for the Rockies while Tovar retreats to the bench after starting each of the past six games. Tovar recorded three doubles during the Rockies' series with the Yankees over the weekend, but he's largely floundered at the plate in August, slashing just .178/.204/.278 with a 34 percent strikeout rate and limited counting stats (one home run, no stolen bases, 11 runs, three RBI) through 21 games this month.

The Marlins placed Edwards on the 10-day injured list due to mild back extensor soreness.

Edwards missed the final two games of the Marlins' series against the Cubs over the weekend with the back issue, and though an MRI on Sunday returned negative, the team will err on the side of caution and deactivate him. Before landing on the IL, Edwards was able to take some swings and do some throwing on the field Sunday, so he could have a chance at returning from the IL when first eligible Sept. 3. Vidal Brujan is expected to serve as the Marlins' primary shortstop in place of Edwards, who had slashed .356/.432/.442 with 10 extra-base hits and 22 stolen bases since moving into a full-time role at the beginning of July.

Pirates manager Derek Shelton announced Monday that Cruz will be moved to center field, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Shelton suggested that the move will be permanent, with the skipper noting that Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Nick Gonzales will be the team's everyday options at shortstop and second base, respectively, for the remainder of the season. Cruz played one inning in left field for the Pirates in 2022 and started nine games at the position for Triple-A Indianapolis in the same season. However, he has never seen action in center field, so the 25-year-old will be learning on the fly. According to Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Pirates plan to ease Cruz into his transition to the outfield by deploying him mostly as a designated hitter initially.

Tovar went 1-for-5 on Sunday against the Yankees.

Tovar had a productive weekend series in New York, going 4-for-13 with three doubles and two runs scored. However, he's endured significant struggles throughout August by hitting just .178 with an abysmal 34 percent strikeout rate and 3.2 percent walk rate. Positively, he still has 11 runs scored in 21 games for the month.

The Marlins are expected to place Edwards (back) on the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's game against the Rockies, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Outfielder Griffin Conine is set to receive a call-up from Triple-A Jacksonville and will meet up with the Marlins in Colorado for the start of the club's four-game series with the Rockies, while Edwards will head to the IL to open up on a spot on the 26-man active roster. Edwards had missed the Marlins' past two games with lower-back discomfort, and though an MRI returned negative and he was able to do some work on the field Sunday, the club wants to give the young infielder more time to heal up from the injury. Edwards' placement on the IL will be retroactive to Saturday, and he should have a good chance at being ready to return when first eligible Sept. 3. Vidal Brujan is likely to step in as the Marlins' primary shortstop while Edwards is on the shelf.

De La Cruz went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Pittsburgh.

De La Cruz's seventh-inning single plated the team's first run and was the Reds' only hit with runners in scoring position. It was his third multi-hit game in the last five contests. In typical De La Cruz fashion, he's filled up the box score during that stretch, going 9-for-21 with a home run, six RBI, two steals and seven runs scored.
