Edman is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Edman is 1-for-12 with a stolen base and a run over the past three games and will receive a day off in the series finale at Washington. Paul DeJong will start at shortstop and bat seventh.

Arcia is starting at second base and batting eighth Sunday versus Arizona.

It's the third consecutive start for Arcia, and the second straight to come against a right-handed pitcher with Merrill Kelly on the mound Sunday for Arizona. Robinson Cano has the platoon advantage but has a .377 OPS through nine games with Atlanta, so it appears Arcia is back as the primary option at the keystone.

Castillo was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday, Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic reports.

Castillo has been up in the majors all season but has seen limited playing time of late, and he'll head to the minors while in the midst of a 2-for-19 slump. Overall the 24-year-old has a .201/.245/.368 slash line with 10 home runs and 25 RBI in 84 games this year. Bryan Reynolds was reinstated from the paternity list in a corresponding move.

Lindor went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 4-0 win against the Marlins.

Lindor singled home a run in the third inning and slammed a 424-foot solo homer in the eighth. He finished with his fourth three-hit performance of the campaign and notched his first long ball of the second half. Lindor has hit safely in 17 of his past 18 contests and is slashing .329/.395/.575 with four homers, 12 RBI and a stolen base over that span.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Rockies.

Turner stretched his hitting streak to 17 games with a third-inning solo shot. In that span, he's gone 26-for-73 (.356) as he continues to be one of the most consistent hitters in the league. The superstar shortstop is slashing .310/.353/.505 with 16 long balls, 73 RBI, 61 runs scored and 18 stolen bases through 100 contests in his first full year with the Dodgers.

Camargo was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday.

Camargo was the odd man out after the Phillies acquired Edmundo Sosa from the Cardinals on Saturday. Camargo has spent the majority of the season in the majors and was hitting .237/.297/.316 across 166 plate appearances.

Abrams (biceps) is starting at second base and hitting ninth Saturday against the Twins.

Ha-Seong Kim will start at shortstop while Jake Cronenworth gets the day off. Abrams, who officially exhausted his prospect status due to days on the active roster, is hitting .300/.313/.433 with one home run, zero steals, five strikeouts and zero walks in 30 at-bats this month. He's expected to serve as a super-utility option for the Padres moving forward, with the role likely to translate to a handful of starts per week.

DeJong was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

DeJong has been in the minors since May 10, and he slashed .249/.313/.552 with 17 home runs, 54 RBI, 36 runs and a stolen base over 51 games in Memphis. The 28-year-old will rejoin the active roster after Edmundo Sosa was traded to the Phillies on Saturday.

Cruz isn't starting Saturday against the Phillies.

Cruz started the last six games and hit .217 with two home runs, five RBI, a walk and six strikeouts. Kevin Newman will take his place at shortstop while Diego Castillo starts at second base.

Perdomo went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's 5-2 loss to Atlanta.

Perdomo fifth-inning blast was his third of the season and first since June 15, snapping a span of 32 contests without a homer. The rookie shortstop has just 12 extra-base hits and is slugging .277 (.074 ISO) over 90 games.
