Misiorowski will start Sunday's game against the Rockies, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.

The flamethrowing right-hander wasn't initially listed among Milwaukee's probable pitchers for this weekend, but he'll end up taking his regular turn through the rotation Sunday. Misiorowski covered just four frames Monday against the Mets in his return from a bout of arm fatigue, with manager Pat Murphy indicating that the 24-year-old was still getting his legs back under him in his first start since July 7. Misiorowski may have a shorter leash going forward after having a heavy first-half workload, though he seems likely to work beyond the 65 pitches he was limited to Monday.

Stephenson is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Mariners.

Stephen will rest on the bench Tuesday after going 3-for-7 with two home runs over the last two games since he last sat on the bench Saturday. However, all three of those hits came in Sunday's 9-6 win over the Rockies as he failed to reach base in Monday's 8-0 loss to the Mariners. Jose Trevino has the start behind the dish and is batting seventh Tuesday.

Steer is not in Tuesday's lineup versus Seattle following Monday's game in which he was hit in the ribs by a pitch.

Sal Stewart is starting at first base for Steer on Tuesday while Eugenio Suarez takes over at third and Nathaniel Lowe serves as the designated hitter. Steer underwent X-rays following Monday's game. The Reds finish off the series in Seattle on Wednesday before getting the day off Thursday as they head to St. Louis.

Lopez (finger) will start at shortstop and bat leadoff Tuesday against the Astros, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Lopez sat out the Marlins' last two games while recovering from a finger injury he suffered while fielding a groundball Saturday. The issue appears to have subsided ahead of Tuesday's contest, however, so he'll reclaim his regular spot at shortstop. The 27-year-old has had an outstanding July up to this point, slashing .345/.377/.618 with two homers, nine RBI, eight runs and two steals in 13 games.

The Giants recalled Beck from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Evan Webeck of the California Post reports.

In a corresponding move, the Giants placed Trevor McDonald on the 15-day IL Tuesday due to an elbow strain. Beck made five appearances with Sacramento after being optioned June 24. Across those appearances, he gave up four earned runs on seven hits, two homers and five walks across 8.2 innings.

The Phillies placed Stubbs on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to July 18, due to left wrist inflammation, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

It's unclear how exactly Stubbs sustained the injury given that he hasn't seen game action since July 10, but he'll be unavailable for at least the next week. Bryan De La Cruz was added to the major-league roster in a corresponding move.

The Giants placed McDonald on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right elbow strain, Evan Webeck of the California Post reports.

McDonald made an early exit from his start Monday after suffering an injury while warming up for the fifth inning, and he'll now officially have to miss a few turns through the rotation. Tristan Beck will come up from Triple-A Sacramento to give the Giants some extra bullpen depth while the team sorts out its rotation plans.

Bauers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

The left-handed-hitting Bauers often plays against lefty hurlers, but he will begin Tuesday's game on the bench as the Mets send rookie southpaw Zac Thornton to the bump. Luis Lara will patrol right field for the Brewers, and Andrew Vaughn will play first base.

Yelich is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

The Mets are starting a left-hander in Zac Thornton, offering the Brewers a chance to get the lefty-swinging Yelich off his feet for a day. William Contreras will be used in the designated hitter spot, and Gary Sanchez will do the catching.

Smith is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

The veteran unsurprisingly remained on the bench Monday with lefty JP Sears taking the mound for San Diego, but Smith's absence Tuesday is coming against righty Walker Buehler. Mike Yastrzemski (elbow) is serving as the designated hitter in his return from the injured list.
