Chisholm was diagnosed with right big toe discomfort after leaving Sunday's game against the Twins and having X-rays come back negative.

The second baseman went 1-for-2 and was caught stealing before departing Sunday's contest prior to the sixth inning. Chisholm appears to have avoided a serious injury, so he should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener at Tampa Bay.

Caissie is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Miami will keep Caissie and fellow left-handed hitters Kyle Stowers, Joe Mack and Griffin Conine on the bench for the series finale in Sacramento while southpaw Gage Jump takes the hill for the Athletics. Caissie started in right field or at designated hitter in the Marlins' last five games and went 3-for-15 with two home runs, six RBI and an additional run.

Canzone is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Canzone started the previous three games but will hit the bench Sunday after going 3-for-11 with two walks, a homer, three RBI and two total runs during that span. Cal Raleigh will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Mitch Garver starts behind the plate in the series finale.

Conine is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Miami will keep Conine and fellow left-handed hitters Kyle Stowers, Joe Mack and Owen Caissie on the bench for the series finale in Sacramento while southpaw Gage Jump takes the hill for the Athletics. Conine went 0-for-10 with a 4:6 BB:K while starting in Miami's past three games, bringing his season-long batting line down to .233/.352/.433 over 71 plate appearances.

Stowers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Miami will keep Stowers and fellow left-handed hitters Griffin Conine, Joe Mack and Owen Caissie on the bench for the series finale in Sacramento while southpaw Gage Jump takes the hill for the Athletics. Liam Hicks will fill in at first base in place of Stowers, who produced a monstrous 1.235 OPS while starting in each of Miami's last 16 games.

Mack is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Miami will keep Mack and fellow left-handed hitters Griffin Conine, Kyle Stowers and Owen Caissie on the bench for the series finale in Sacramento while southpaw Gage Jump takes the hill for the Athletics. Brian Navarreto will fill in for Mack behind the dish and will bat ninth.

Bradish (5-9) took the loss Sunday against the Reds, allowing three runs on five hits and a walk over 7.2 innings. He struck out five.

Bradish pitched well Sunday, as he held the Reds to two runs on Spencer Steer's fifth-inning homer before giving up another run on a two-out hit in the eighth. However, Baltimore failed to provide Bradish with enough run support in an eventual 3-2 defeat. The right-hander has now dropped back-to-back starts, though he's given up just seven earned runs across 27.1 innings in his last four outings. Overall, Bradish's ERA sits at 3.75 with a 1.40 WHIP and 101:48 K:BB across 18 starts (100.2 innings) this season. He's tentatively in line to face the Royals at home his next time out.

The Diamondbacks optioned Groover to Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

After making starts in just one of the Diamondbacks' last seven games, Groover will head back to Triple-A to receive steadier playing time. Arizona recalled utility man Tim Tawa from Triple-A to join the active roster as a replacement for Groover, who slashed .167/.259/.271 with one home run, four RBI and four runs in 15 games during his month-long stay with the big club.

Arizona recalled Tawa from Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

With Nolan Arenado resting for Sunday's series finale versus Milwaukee, Tawa will enter the starting nine at third base and will bat seventh. Tawa isn't expected to be in line for steady at-bats while he's up with Arizona and will bring most of his value in his ability to play three infield and all three outfield spots. He's logged 76 plate appearances with Arizona this season, slashing .172/.270/.266 with one home run, eight RBI and six runs.

Diaz (elbow) said he felt "really good" while facing hitters in live batting practice Sunday, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.

The veteran closer took the mound against live batters for the first time since he underwent surgery in April to remove loose bodies from his elbow. Diaz told Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic that he was pleased with his velocity during the throwing session, and he's hopeful to begin a minor-league rehab assignment in the near future. The 32-year-old is aiming to be activated from the 60-day injured list shortly after the All-Star break.
