Sosa will start at shortstop and will bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

Sosa will pick up just his fourth start since the All-Star break while he checks in for Trea Turner, who is getting rest for the day game after playing all 12 innings in the Phillies' 7-6 loss Tuesday night. While the Phillies have all their key position players at full strength, Sosa will continue to handle a utility role and won't benefit from consistent playing time.

Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

Turner will join fellow lineup regulars Bryson Stott, J.T. Realmuto and Brandon Marsh on the bench while manager Rob Thomson gives all four players rest for the day game after a night game. Edmundo Sosa will step in at shortstop for Turner, who had started every contest since the All-Star break while slashing .167/.231/.292 with two home runs and one stolen base.

Perdomo went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 17-0 win over the Nationals.

Perdomo joined the Diamondbacks' 22-hit attack with his second straight multi-hit game. He drove in Arizona's third run with a single then doubled home the team's 13th tally. Following an eight-game stretch during which Perdomo batted .115 (3-for-26) without an RBI, the shortstop and ninth-place hitter has driven in five runs over the last four contests.

Newman went 2-for-5 with a steal and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Nationals.

Newman logged his second straight two-hit game and swiped his fourth bag of the year and his first since June 13. He got the start at first base, but his path to extra playing time may have been closed off by the Diamondbacks' acquisition of Josh Bell from the Marlins on Tuesday to fill the void left by Christian Walker's oblique injury. Newman will continue to play a utility role off the bench for the most part, and he is now slashing .277/.307/.385 with two homers, 22 RBI, 31 runs and a 10:32 BB:K in 229 plate appearances.

Tovar went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Angels.

Tovar provided the Rockies' last run with a solo shot in the seventh inning. It was his second multi-hit effort in a row, and it extended his hitting streak to 16 games, a span in which he's lifted six homers and driven in 15 runs. Tovar is up to a .290/.315/.493 slash line with 18 long balls, 52 RBI, 57 runs scored and four stolen bases over 105 contests this year.

The Cubs optioned Mastrobuoni to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

With Isaac Paredes now active and set to take over as Chicago's primary third baseman, Mastrobuoni no longer has a place in the Cubs' infield unit and will now head back to Triple-A. The 28-year-old slashed .260/.283/.300 in 53 plate appearances after being recalled in mid-June.

The Giants recalled Luciano from Triple-A Sacramento, and he's batting sixth as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Athletics.

The 22-year-old is one of San Francisco's top prospects and is expected to see regular playing time after the club traded away Jorge Soler. Luciano went 9-for-24 during his brief look in the big leagues in May and has a .243/.384/.371 slash line with eight homers at Triple-A this year.

The Mets traded Lara to the Marlins on Tuesday in exchange for Huascar Brazoban, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Lara has spent the entire season with the Mets' High-A affiliate, slashing .244/.349/.343 with 29 RBI and 13 stolen bases through his first 78 games of affiliated ball. He'll presumably report to High-A Beloit upon joining his new organization.

The Cubs acquired Cowles (undisclosed) and right-hander Jack Neely from the Yankees on Tuesday in exchange for right-hander Mark Leiter, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Cowles, 24, slashed .295/.376/.472 with nine home runs and 14 stolen bases over 88 games this season with Double-A Somerset before he was placed on the 7-day injured list Saturday with an unspecified injury. The Cubs likely aren't too concerned about the injury, given his inclusion in the trade. He can play second base, third base and shortstop and profiles as a potential utility infielder at the major-league level.

The Giants are expected to recall Luciano from Triple-A Sacramento prior to Tuesday's game against the Athletics, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

San Francisco has an open spot on its active roster following Monday's trade with Atlanta and that spot will be filled by Luciano, who boasts a .413 on-base percentage with six home runs in July at Sacramento. The 22-year-old hit well with the Giants earlier this season, too, with a .986 OPS in 10 games, but his defense at shortstop was lacking. That position is now being filled by the red-hot Tyler Fitzgerald, but Luciano could receive regular reps at second base and/or designated hitter.
