Olson went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored during Atlanta's 4-3 win over Toronto on Tuesday.

Olson broke the 3-3 tie in the sixth inning, when he took Kevin Gausman deep to right field for a 355-foot solo home run. Olson has smacked two home runs over his last three games and has gone deep 17 times this season, which leads Atlanta and ranks second in the National League behind Kyle Schwarber (22). Olson is slashing .265/.342/.559 with one steal, 46 RBI and 43 runs over 269 plate appearances this season.

Iglesias earned the save in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Toronto, allowing two hits while striking out one batter in a scoreless ninth inning.

Iglesias didn't make things easy for himself, allowing singles to two of the first three batters he faced in the ninth, but he came away with his 11th save of the season after getting the next two hitters to pop out. His save against the Red Sox on May 26 is still Iglesias' only outing this season in which he's given up runs. He has a 0.96 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 22:3 K:BB across 18.2 innings this season.

Elder (5-3) earned the win against the Blue Jays on Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six across 6.2 innings.

Elder was looking to bounce back from his last start against the Red Sox on Wednesday, when he allowed six runs (five earned) on nine hits across 3.1 innings. He gave up a two-run home run to Kazuma Okamoto in the second frame of Tuesday's outing, but Elder limited the Jays to just one more run over the remainder of his start, finishing with 12 whiffs, seven groundouts and 64 strikes on 103 pitches. Elder is up to nine quality starts this season, tied for most in the majors with Chris Sale, Cristopher Sanchez and Michael Wacha. Elder will take a 2.63 ERA and 1.08 WHIP across 78.2 innings into his next start, which is slated for this weekend at home against the Pirates.

Millas was removed from Tuesday's game against the Marlins with an upper lip laceration, Kyle Williams of TheBanner.com reports.

Millas' helmet came off his head and bounced back into his face while he was sliding into third base in the sixth inning, causing his lip to start bleeding. He was removed by a trainer shortly thereafter and can likely be considered day-to-day for now.

McCray will undergo surgery Thursday to repair a fractured hamate bone in his left hand, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

McCray has spent the entire season at Triple-A Sacramento, slashing .237/.360/.370 through 49 games. His fractured hamate has kept him out of action since May 29, however, and he figures to be out several more weeks after he undergoes surgery.

Koss was diagnosed with a fractured left wrist Tuesday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Koss hasn't played at Triple-A Sacramento since May 23, and he's now facing an extended absence. The Giants haven't announced a return timeline for the 28-year-old infielder, though he may be a candidate to land on the 60-day IL at some point if the team needs to free up a 40-man roster spot.

Torrens isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Seattle.

Torrens will take a seat Tuesday after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout in Monday's loss. Hayden Senger will fill in as New York's backstop and bat ninth.

Freeman isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Freeman is currently enjoying a seven-game hitting streak that's seen him go 10-for-25 (.400) with six runs scored, but the Rockies will keep him on the bench to begin Tuesday's game. His absence will open up a spot in the lineup for Edouard Julien, who will start at first base and bat ninth.

Rumfield (shoulder) will serve as the designated hitter and bat third Tuesday against the Angels.

Rumfield was pulled early from Sunday's contest with shoulder inflammation and missed out on the starting nine Monday, but he later entered the game as a pinch hitter. He'll now return to the lineup and look to turn things around after going just 3-for-15 across his last seven games.

Hence returned to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Hence was sent out to the Cardinals' complex in Florida in late April to work on his mechanics after allowing eight earned runs in just 8.1 innings to begin the year at Triple-A. Although he never played a game in the FCL, the Cardinals are seemingly pleased with his progress and he will now rejoin the Redbirds. The 23-year-old righty owns a 40-man roster spot, so if he bounces back nicely at Memphis, he could be called up for his MLB debut at some point this season.
