DeJong isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

DeJong has gone 3-for-10 with two homers, four RBI, two runs and a stolen base across the last four games, but he'll get a breather in Wednesday's series finale. Edmundo Sosa will start at shortstop and bat eighth.

Edman went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a run and a stolen base in a 3-2 victory versus the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

The Cardinals' leadoff hitter singled and stole second base in the fifth frame before coming around to score the game's first run on Nolan Arenado's two-run homer. He came up with a big single in the following inning, driving in a run that proved to provide the winning margin in the contest. Edman is slashing a modest .259/.301/.364 on the season but has made his mark in fantasy with 14 stolen bases in 17 attempts.

Barrero will make his Triple-A debut for Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Barrero jumped all the way from High-A to the big leagues last season but looked overmatched, hitting .194/.206/.194 in 68 plate appearances. He's back on a standard development track this season. His promotion to Triple-A is well earned based on his performance at Double-A Chattanooga, where he hit .300/.367/.481 with six homers and eight steals in 40 games.

Rojas is sitting for Tuesday's game against the Phillies due to cold-like symptoms, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

It's unclear how severe Rojas' symptoms are, nor is it known whether he's available off the bench Tuesday. More details about his condition figure to become available following the game or on Wednesday.

Rojas is not starting Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas has hit .167 with a homer and five RBI since returning from the injured list June 18. Luis Marte will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Tuesday's series opener.

Adames went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Monday's 14-4 win over the Cubs.

Adames took Trevor Megill deep in the eighth inning. The Cubs intentionally walked Christian Yelich, and Adames made them pay by slamming a three-run bomb to extend the lead. The 25-year-old is slashing .286/.357/.516 with six home runs, 24 RBI and 16 runs in 142 plate appearances since joining the Brewers via trade in late May. He's been especially hot lately, batting .359 with three long balls in his last 10 games.

Crawford went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 3-2 loss to the Dodgers on Monday.

Crawford's sixth-inning solo shot off Trevor Bauer brought the Giants to within one run of Los Angeles' lead but wound up being the final run of the game. Crawford's 17 home runs are third most among MLB shortstops and only four off his career high of 21 set in 2015.

Seager (hand) has been experiencing soreness when swinging a bat and has been shut down from hitting for now, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Manager Dave Roberts stated that Seager's hand "just isn't responding" as the team had hoped, and as a result, he hasn't swung a bat since last week, per DiGiovanna. "We're going to put hitting on back-burner and slow play it right now," stated Roberts. At this point, there is no clear timetable for Seager's return.

Reyes was recalled by the Brewers on Monday.

Reyes appeared in five minor-league games since he was sent down, and he went 4-for-19 with three doubles, three runs, two walks and four strikeouts during that time. He'll now rejoin the major-league club and should mainly serve in a depth role going forward.

Edman isn't starting Monday's game against the Diamondbacks, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Edman had started in each of the last 10 games, but he went 0-for-12 with two strikeouts across his last three appearances. Edmundo Sosa will start at second base and bat eighth.
