  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Back in starting nine

    Turang (foot) is starting at second base and batting third Sunday against the Marlins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The 26-year-old was scratched from Saturday's lineup after fouling a pitch off his foot Friday, but he's been cleared to play after doing some running on the field pregame. Turang went 0-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout to open the second half Friday, but he's been productive at the plate in July with seven doubles, two homers, two steals, 12 RBI and seven runs through 12 games.

  • Cole Carrigg CF | COL

    Rockies' Cole Carrigg: Idle Sunday

    Carrigg is absent from Sunday's lineup against Cincinnati.

    Carrigg will ride the bench for the second time during this three-game set against the Reds. Jake McCarthy will shift to center field in place of Carrigg.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Goes yard in loss

    Adames went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

    Adames launched a home run to right field in the sixth inning, recording his second homer in his last two games. The veteran shortstop has recorded at least one hit in three straight games and is now batting .222 with 10 RBI, seven runs scored, three long balls and a stolen base across 51 plate appearances in July. He's slashing .230/.280/.432 with 47 runs scored, 42 RBI, 17 home runs and two stolen bases in 393 plate appearances this season.

  • Edwin Arroyo 2B | CIN

    Reds' Edwin Arroyo: Not in Sunday's lineup

    Arroyo is out of the lineup for the series finale against Colorado on Sunday.

    After being lifted for a pinch hitter in the seventh inning Saturday, Arroyo will ride the pine Sunday. Spencer Steer will man second base and bat cleanup for the Reds.

  • Giants' Rafael Devers: Homers in loss

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

    Devers hit a leadoff homer to left field in the sixth inning, giving the Giants a 2-0 lead. The veteran infielder had gone 0-for-11 in his previous three outings and is now batting .271 with 11 runs scored, nine RBI and five home runs across 58 plate appearances in July. Overall, he's slashing .245/.314/.477 with 53 RBI, 50 runs scored and 20 long balls in 417 plate appearances this season.

  • Kyle Harrison SP | MIL

    Brewers' Kyle Harrison: MRI comes back clean

    Harrison (elbow) said a precautionary MRI returned "all good" and that he had no issues during his bullpen session Saturday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The left-hander landed on the shelf July 8 due to elbow soreness, but he appears to have avoided a serious injury and quickly returned to mound work. Harrison will be eligible to come off the injured list Friday, though he may need to face live batters before rejoining Milwaukee's rotation.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Idle Sunday

    Lopez (finger) is out of the lineup for Sunday's matchup against Milwaukee.

    After taking a groundball off his right ring finger in the second inning of Saturday's game, Lopez will be on the bench for the series finale against Milwaukee. Javier Sanoja will play shortstop and bat cleanup in Lopez's absence Sunday.

  • Rece Hinds DH | MIA

    Marlins' Rece Hinds: Optioned to Jacksonville

    Miami optioned Hinds to Jacksonville on Sunday.

    After spending just over a week with the big-league club, Hinds will make his way back down to Jacksonville. The 25-year-old logged just two at-bats with the Marlins in his second big-league stint this season and his first with Miami. The Marlins recalled Graham Pauley from Triple-A to take Hinds' spot on the active roster.

  • Graham Pauley 3B | MIA

    Marlins' Graham Pauley: Back with Miami

    The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

    Pauley will return to the big-league club after spending a couple of weeks in Triple-A. In the majors this season, the 25-year-old has slashed .176/.219/.297 with one homer and 11 RBI. To make room for Pauley on the roster, Miami optioned Rece Hinds to Jacksonville.

  • Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Start moved to Monday

    Misiorowski (arm) is scheduled to start Monday's game against the Mets, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The flamethrowing right-hander was initially penciled in to rejoin the rotation Tuesday after recovering from a bout of arm fatigue, but instead he'll move up a day while Brandon Sproat gets bumped to Tuesday. Misiorowski will be making his first start since July 7 in St. Louis, when he struck out 11 and gave up three runs across seven innings while picking up his 10th victory of the year. It's not a major surprise that the 24-year-old got some extra time off -- his 111 innings this season is fast approaching the career high of 141.1 frames he posted between Triple-A and the majors last year including the playoffs.
