Chourio was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cubs due to an apparent right hamstring injury, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Chourio pulled up a bit while legging out a fifth-inning triple, and he appeared to be grabbing at his right hamstring before coming out of the game. The Brewers will take a closer look at their young star and should offer an update on his status relatively soon. Meanwhile, Blake Perkins figures to be the next man up if Chourio needs to miss any starts in center field.

Myers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at St. Louis.

Myers started the previous four games and will receive a day off after going 2-for-13 with a homer and two stolen bases. Javier Sanoja will take over in center field and bat eighth versus Cardinals righty Sonny Gray.

Stowers (illness) is starting in left field and batting cleanup Sunday against the Cardinals.

The 27-year-old was scratched from the lineup Monday due to an illness, but it's apparently not a serious issue since he's back in the starting nine a day later. Stowers is batting a ridiculous .439 (18-for-41) with four doubles and seven homers in his past 12 games, boosting his OPS for the season to .952.

High-A Great Lakes placed De Paula on its 7-day injured list Saturday due to an unspecified injury.

De Paula hadn't played since Wednesday before Great Lakes deactivated him three days later. The 19-year-old has emerged as one of the more exciting lower-level prospects in baseball this season, as he's displayed an impressive blend of power (21 extra-base hits), speed (27-for-33 on steal attempts) and on-base skills (19 percent walk rate) over 82 games for Great Lakes in addition to taking home All-Star Futures Game MVP honors earlier this month. The Dodgers haven't provided a timeline for his return to action.

High-A Great Lakes transferred Sirota from the 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on July 13 after he suffered an apparent right knee injury while sliding into a base July 5, Bruce Kuntz of DodgersDigest.com reports.

Though it's not clear if Sirota will require surgery, his 2025 season is likely over, unless he makes it back for the Arizona Fall League. He may have been promoted to Double-A Tulsa at some point this summer if he hadn't suffered the injury, as he was slashing .316/.458/.556 with six home runs and four steals in 35 games for Great Lakes.

The Marlins selected Johnston's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Johnston earned his first-ever major-league promotion after putting together a .252/.333/.439 batting line with 12 homers and 31 steals at Jacksonville. The 28-year-old will provide depth at first base and the corner outfield spots.

Gurriel is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Arizona.

Gurriel has gone 4-for-12 over the past three games but is without an extra-base hit since July 9 and has a .658 OPS through 20 games this month. Jake McCarthy will instead start in left field and bat sixth versus Detroit righty Casey Mize.

The Reds recalled Hinds from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Hinds will provide some outfield depth while TJ Friedl is on the paternity list. He is likely to be sent back down once Friedl returns later this week.

The Reds placed Friedl on the paternity list Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

By rule, Friedl will be away for the next 1-to-3 days while welcoming a new addition to the family. The Reds will roll out Will Benson in center field Tuesday against the Dodgers and have elevated Gavin Lux to the leadoff spot.

The Marlins are expected to call up Johnston from Triple-A Jacksonville prior to Tuesday's game in St. Louis, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Johnston would take the 26-man and 40-man roster spots vacated by Nick Fortes, who has been traded to the Rays. The 28-year-old Johnston has slashed .252/.333/.439 with 12 homers and 31 steals at Jacksonville this season and is capable of playing first base in addition to both corner-outfield spots. Johnston will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.
