Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Astros.

New opponent, same result -- Suarez is still dialed in at the plate. Over four games since the All-Star break, the third baseman has slugged five homers while going 6-for-14 with three walks and eight RBI. He's up to 36 long balls on the year, good for the National League lead and just two behind Cal Raleigh for most in the majors. Suarez's power surge has his slugging percentage up to .605 and his OPS at .933, and he's added 86 RBI, 64 runs scored, 18 doubles and a stolen base over 99 contests this season.

Shaw went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 12-4 loss to the Royals.

Shaw is showing some signs of life lately, as he's now riding a modest four-game hitting streak, and he's gone 6-for-11 during the stretch. The rookie is still batting just .216 overall, and the Cubs may target a veteran third baseman before the trade deadline as his replacement, but Shaw does have the talent to get hot. His fantasy value is higher in dynasty formats at the moment, though the 23-year-old could still deliver some production down the stretch this year depending on his role.

Baty went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer, a walk and an additional run scored in Monday's 7-5 win against the Angels.

The 25-year-old opened the scoring for his team with a 404-foot, two-run blast off Los Angeles lefty Tyler Anderson in the fourth. This marks the first long ball Baty has hit off a southpaw this season, as he appears to be emerging from a strong-side platoon role into an everyday one, drawing consecutive starts against left-handers. Through 255 total plate appearances, Baty is slashing .237/.295/.431 with 33 RBI and 26 runs scored.

Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak said Monday that he will approach Arenado in the week leading up to the trade deadline to ask for the third baseman's preference if a trade possibility surfaces, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Arenado has a full no-trade clause and used it to shut down a potential trade to the Astros over the offseason. It's uncertain what the 34-year-old's appetite is for waiving the clause at the trade deadline, nor is it clear what level interest there will be in Arenado from contenders. Arenado has had a fine year defensively at third base but further regressed at the plate, slashing only .241/.299/.381. He's owed $42 million over the next two seasons, with the Rockies being responsible for $5 million of that.

Durbin is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

Anthony Seigler will bat eighth and make the start at third base against Seattle right-hander George Kirby. Durbin has started 11 of the Brewers' last 13 games and is slashing .264/.350/.382 with five home runs, 35 RBI, 35 runs scored, nine stolen bases and a 20:26 BB:K across 285 plate appearances this season.

Alvarez will start at third base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Giants.

He'll pick up his sixth consecutive start at the hot corner after going 4-for-18 with a double, a walk and two runs since being called up from Triple-A Gwinnett on July 12. Though his production has been underwhelming thus far, Alvarez nonetheless appears on track to retain a regular spot in the Atlanta infield while Austin Riley (abdomen) is on the injured list.

Mauricio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.

The switch-hitting Mauricio will head to the bench for a second straight matchup with a left-handed starter (Tyler Anderson), after the infielder was previously held out of the lineup in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Reds while southpaw Andrew Abbott toed the slab for Cincinnati. Luisangel Acuna will pick up another start and could end up settling into a loose platoon with Mauricio, who has gone 1-for-15 with six strikeouts versus lefties so far this season.

Chapman went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored in Sunday's 8-6 loss to the Blue Jays.

Chapman cut the Giants' deficit to 7-4 in the sixth inning with a two-out, opposite-field blast off Jose Berrios, his 13th homer this season. Chapman would also deliver just his second multi-hit effort in 11 games since returning from the IL -- he'd gone just 2-for-27 (.074) in seven contests prior to Sunday. Overall, the 32-year-old Chapman is slashing .234/.343/.425 with 33 RBI, 44 runs scored and seven steals across 318 plate appearances.

Marte started in right field and went 1-for-4 in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Mets.

Marte made his first career start in the outfield and fielded just one ball in right field. He handled it cleanly, scooping up a groundball single and making a nice one-hop throw to the plate. Reds manager Terry Francona told Mark Sheldon of MLB.com that Marte's not ready to play everyday in right field but could see occasional work there against certain lefties.

Saurez went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Sunday's 5-3 win versus St. Louis.

The Arizona third baseman extended his team's lead to 4-0 with a 425-foot, three-run blast off Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas in the first inning. Suarez then returned in the third to slug a solo shot off Mikolas to reach the 35-homer mark for the second time in his career (the first time coming in 2019 with Cincinnati, when he totaled 49). This performance wrapped up a fantastic three-game weekend for the 34-year-old, as he went 5-for-10 with four long balls, seven RBI and five runs scored. Through 403 total plate appearances across 98 games, Suarez is slashing .257/.328/.601 with 85 RBI and 63 runs scored.
