Seager went 1-for-3 against Washington on Sunday, driving in five runs with a grand slam and a sacrifice fly.

Seager's run-scoring flyball put the Dodgers on the board in the second inning, and he blew the game open with a bases-loaded blast to deep right field in the eighth. Seager has struggled out of the gate in his first season back from Tommy John surgery, so perhaps his big game Sunday is a step toward turning things around.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 5-1 victory against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

With the three-hit afternoon, Anderson improved to 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers and six RBI in the last seven games. He's only walked six times this season, but Anderson still supports a healthy .331/.362/.535 slash line. Anderson also has eight home runs, 24 RBI and 25 runs in 142 at-bats this year.

Crawford will start at shortstop and bat second Sunday against the Red Sox, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

Crawford will slot into the two hole for the second game in a row, with the Mariners likely hoping the on-base skills he displayed in the minors carry over in his return to the big leagues. The 24-year-old's stay in the lineup could prove to be short-lived, however, as the Mariners have thus far resisted moving Dee Gordon (wrist) to the injured list and view the speedy second baseman as day-to-day.

Adrianza will start at second base and bat seventh Sunday against the Tigers, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Adrianza was in the lineup for both halves of Saturday's doubleheader, finishing the day 1-for-6 with a pair of walks. Though he'll stick in the starting nine Sunday in place of a resting Jonathan Schoop, Adrianza likely won't be in store for a more extended run in the lineup anytime soon while he maintains a .423 OPS on the season.

DeJong went 1-for-3 with an RBI double and a walk in a loss to the Pirates on Saturday.

DeJong brought home the Cardinals' only run of the game with a third-inning two-bagger that opened the scoring for both clubs. The hot-hitting shortstop has now reached safely in eight straight games and is already more than halfway to his April RBI total (10) in the current month.

Diaz will start at second base and bat seventh Sunday against the Rangers, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

For the first time all season, Diaz should have a clear path to a full-time role for a steady stretch of action after Jose Altuve (hamstring) was moved to the 10-day injured list Saturday. Yuli Gurriel will occasionally be a factor at the keystone when Diaz rests, but the latter should otherwise handle the bulk of the starts at the position for at least the next week and a half. Diaz has slashed a mediocre .219/.246/.422 over 69 plate appearances, but playing in a talent-packed Houston lineup has allowed him to rack up 15 RBI.

Gordon (wrist) is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Red Sox, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Gordon will miss his third straight game after being hit by a pitch by the right wrist Thursday. The 30-year-old was expected take a few days off from swinging a bat, so his continued absence isn't a major surprise. Gordon is likely to be re-evaluated within the next day or two. Shed Long will start at second base and bat ninth for the Mariners in his stead.

Adames is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Adames will take a seat for the third time in May, even though he's seemingly turned a corner at the dish this month. Through eight contests, Adames has gone 10-for-28 with three extra-base hits (all doubles) and a 5:8 BB:K. Daniel Robertson will fill in for Adames at shortstop in the series finale.

Camargo pinch hit for Josh Tomlin in the top of the ninth inning and hit a solo home run in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

It's only the utility player's second homer of the year, to go along with a tepid .229/.289/.373 slash line. Camargo isn't seeing much action these days -- he's started only two of the last nine games -- and his path to playing time could get even rockier if Atlanta decides to call up Austin Riley at some point to man an outfield corner.

Diaz went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Saturday's 11-4 win over the Rangers.

Getting the start at second base in place of Jose Altuve (hamstring) and batting ninth, Diaz launched his third homer of the year off Kyle Dowdy in the sixth inning. The utility player is slashing only .219/.246/.422 on the year, but he'll get a chance to improve those numbers with steady work at the keystone until Altuve is healthy.
