Atlanta will activate Acuna (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's game against the Mets, Buster Olney of ESPN reports.

Acuna has been shelved since mid-June with a left hamstring strain, his second hamstring-related absence this season. He played nine rehab contests, going 6-for-26 with one home run and a 6:6 BB:K. In 53 games with Atlanta this season, Acuna has slashed .251/.373/.421 with seven home runs and 15 stolen bases.

The White Sox optioned Perez to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Perez socked a pinch-hit home run Sunday against the Astros, but the rookie outfielder has not started a game since the All-Star break. He'll play more regularly at Charlotte. Perez's demotion could signify Everson Pereira's (concussion) impending activation.

Moreno went 2-for-3 with a walk, two doubles and two RBI in Sunday's 10-7 loss to the Nationals.

Moreno extended an RBI streak to five games, during which he's gone 9-for-19 (.474) with three doubles, a home run and eight RBI. The catcher has a .315/.396/.458 slash line with seven home runs, 41 RBI, four steals and 43 runs scored over 79 games.

Perdomo went 1-for-2 with three walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 10-7 loss to Washington.

Perdomo broke a 1-1 tie with a solo shot in the third inning. It was his eighth homer in 102 games and snapped an 0-for-15 run for the shortstop. The slump went back further than that, as Perdomo entered Sunday's contest having gone 4-for-37 (.108) over the previous 11 games.

Trammell went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 12-3 loss to the White Sox.

Making his first start in four games, Trammell tied things up at 3-3 with a 426-foot blast of Erick Fedde in the fourth inning, his fourth homer of the season. Lucas Spence had seen the majority of time in center field after Brice Matthews (knee) landed on the IL last week, though Trammell could be in line for more playing time as the rookie Spence has gone just 2-for-21 in his last six games. Overall, Trammell is slashing .238/.299/.389 with 13 RBI, 16 runs scored and three stolen bases across 138 plate appearances this season.

Thomas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Tigers.

Thomas opened Sunday's contest with a leadoff homer to right field off Framber Valdez. The outfielder has belted three homers in 10 games since the All-Star break, though he's gone just 8-for-39 (.205) during that stretch. Overall, Thomas is hitting .230/.327/.400 with 10 homers, 37 RBI, 30 runs and six stolen bases across 92 contests in 2026.

Massey went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 5-4 win over Detroit.

With southpaw Framber Valdez starting for Detroit, Massey opened Sunday's matchup on the bench before entering in the sixth inning and swatting a go-ahead, two-run homer off lefty Drew Sommers in the eighth frame. Massey has gone 12-for-32 (.375) with four extra-base hits, five RBI and six runs in 10 games since the All-Star break. In 87 total contests, he's slashing .274/.312/.440 with eight homers, 36 RBI, 36 runs and two stolen bases while operating as Kansas City's primary second baseman for most of the season.

McNeil went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 11-8 loss to the Twins.

McNeil stayed hot at the plate, collecting a pair of singles and driving in two runs. In eight games since the All-Star break, the 34-year-old has gone 10-for-22 (.455) with a homer, seven RBI, six runs and a stolen base. His overall numbers remain lackluster, however, as McNeil is slashing .244/.306/.331 with four homers, 33 RBI, 29 runs and two stolen bases across 93 contests.

Rice went 2-for-5 with a solo homer, a double and an additional run scored in Sunday's 11-4 loss to the Phillies.

Rice crushed a solo shot to center field off Tim Mayza in the seventh inning, marking the slugger's ninth homer of the season against a lefty. After a quiet June, Rice is slashing .289/.372/.671 with eight homers, 18 RBI and 11 runs across 20 games in July. Overall, the 27-year-old is hitting .273/.360/.586 with 31 homers, 72 RBI and 68 runs in 100 contests.

Bohm went 1-for-4 with a double, four RBI, two runs scored and a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's 11-4 win over the Yankees.

Bohm got in on the Phillies' offensive outburst, delivering a three-RBI double in the third inning. Over his past seven games, the third baseman is slashing .296/.345/.593 with two homers, nine RBI and four runs scored. In total, Bohm is hitting .221/.282/.368 with 13 homers, 57 RBI and 35 runs scored across 101 contests in 2026.
