Alcantara (8-4) earned the win against the Rangers on Tuesday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks with four strikeouts over 6.2 innings.

Alcantara allowed a run in the second inning and cruised from there, logging his fifth straight quality-start victory in the process. Per Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, he passed Ricky Nolasco to become the Marlins' all-time strikeout leader (1,002) in the seventh frame. The 30-year-old Alcantara will carry a 4.01 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 81:27 K:BB across 110 innings this season into a road matchup against the Rockies next week.

X-rays on Lodolo's left wrist came back negative after Tuesday's loss to the Brewers, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Lodolo took a 107-mph line drive off his wrist in the fourth inning of Tuesday's contest and was pulled after finishing the frame. However, he seems to have escaped the incident without suffering any structural damage, and he could be good to go for his next start -- tentatively scheduled to come in Milwaukee on Monday -- if swelling doesn't become too much of an issue.

Cabrera was removed from Tuesday's game against the Mets with a left hamstring/adductor strain, Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Cabrera was hurt while extending to catch a throw to first base at the end of the fifth inning and appeared to be grabbing at his left thigh. He wasn't able to make it off the field by himself and had to leave the game in a cart. The Cubs will presumably send the right-hander in for imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and an update on his status could come after the game.

Soto was removed from Tuesday's contest against the Cubs in the fifth inning due to left side back tightness.

Soto was spotted wearing a heating pad on his back earlier in the game, and the Mets ultimately decided to take him out of the game after the fourth inning. The 27-year-old went 0-for-2 in his two at-bats, and more information on his status will likely be provided in the near future. In the meantime, Jared Young has shifted to left field while Mark Vientos has now entered the lineup at first base.

Lodolo suffered a left wrist contusion and exited Tuesday's contest against the Brewers in the fifth inning, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Lodolo was struck in the left wrist by a 107 mph line drive off the back of Jackson Chourio to open the top of the fourth inning. He was able to finish the frame, but he was ultimately forced to exit the contest before the fifth inning. Lodolo tossed four scoreless frames, allowing two hits and a walk while striking out six batters before his early departure. An update on the southpaw's status moving forward will likely be provided following the conclusion of Tuesday's contest.

Hunt was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

Hunt will head back to El Paso after Freddy Fermin was reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday. Hunt appeared in only two games following his call-up, going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts, and he'll now wait for his next chance to join the big-league club.

Fermin (concussion) was reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Fermin will return to action after missing a little over a week while recovering from a concussion. His not in the starting lineup against Atlanta, but he'll be available off the bench. Blake Hunt was optioned to Triple-A El Paso to make room for Fermin on the major-league roster.

Winn (elbow) began a throwing program Monday, Evan Webeck of the California Post reports.

Monday marked Winn's first time doing any sort of throwing since he landed on the injured list June 14 with a strained right elbow. He'll presumably have to get through several bullpen sessions and rounds of live BP before the Giants begin to think about activating him, but he doesn't appear to be in line for an extended stay on the IL.

Schwarber was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against Washington due to lower-back tightness, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Schwarber's back will keep him on the bench to begin Tuesday's contest, and it remains unknown whether he'll have to miss additional games as well. Edmundo Sosa will fill in as the Phillies' designated hitter and bat eighth.

Abrams was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies due to left side tightness.

The severity of Abrams' injury remains unknown, though it will prevent him from getting a chance to extend his six-game hitting streak Tuesday. Nasim Nunez will move over to shortstop with Abrams out, opening up second base for Jorbit Vivas.
