The Pirates will recall Cook from Triple-A Indianapolis prior to Wednesday's contest in Detroit, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

He will be the roster replacement for Bryan Reynolds, who is headed to the paternity list. Cook hasn't found his power stroke this season at Indianapolis with zero home runs, but he's slashing .458/.536/.542 in June. The 26-year-old could be on the roster for only a few days while Reynolds is away.

Hilliard went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Nationals.

Hilliard remains a part-time player, but he has started in left field in three of the Rockies' last six games. He launched his first home run Tuesday since May 30, though he does have a total of six extra-base hits across 39 plate appearances with Colorado.

Moniak went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Nationals.

Moniak has now started in five of Colorado's last six games and appears to have regained a foothold in the team's regular lineup against right-handed pitching. Tyler Freeman appeared to have supplanted Moniak in right field, but the Rockies have been using Freeman at designated hitter more frequently to keep both players' bats in the lineup. Over his last seven contests, Moniak has gone 7-for-21 with four home runs, one triple, one double and one stolen base.

Canario went 1-for-3 with two RBI against the Tigers on Tuesday.

Canario has lost playing time recently but should be in line for a short-term uptick with Bryan Reynolds expected to be placed on the paternity list. Canario entered the game in the second inning after Reynolds was pulled to be with his family, and Canario delivered a two-RBI single one frame later. After hitting relatively well early in his time with Pittsburgh, Canario has gone just 2-for-20 with a 40.9 percent strikeout rate in June.

Scott went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.

Scott joined in on the run-scoring parade with a two-run blast in the ninth to make it a 12-2 ballgame. The home run was his third of the year and his first since April 30, though this one came against position player Vinny Capra. Scott now has five RBI and a steal in his last four games and has six hits in his last seven games after beginning the month 0-for-17 at the plate.

Friedl went 1-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Twins.

The Reds let a 4-1 lead slip away in the sixth inning, but Friedl came to the rescue an inning later. His two-run double re-established Cincinnati's lead and was the game-winning knock. Friedl has driven in eight runs over the last 10 games.

Benson started in left field and went 1-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-5 win over Minnesota.

Benson got the Reds started with a two-out, two-run single in the fourth inning that erased the Twins' early advantage. He's been a sub-.200 hitter (10-for-59, .169) since a hot streak in the middle of May put him on the fantasy radar. Despite the downturn, Benson's managed to maintain a regular presence in the lineup against right-handers. That could change when Austin Hays (foot) is ready to return.

Pages went 4-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 8-6 win over the Padres.

Pages has hit safely in four straight games, though this was his first multi-hit effort since June 9 in San Diego. The outfielder has three homers and seven RBI over his last three contests. Tuesday's big performance has Pages up to a .293/.332/.513 slash line, 15 homers, 49 RBI, 38 runs scored and six stolen bases over 70 contests. He's already surpassed his 13-homer total from 116 regular-season games in 2024 as he continues to enjoy a breakout in his second big-league season.

Yastrzemski went 3-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians.

Yastrzemski is on a hot streak, having hit safely in seven straight games. In that span, he has gone 11-for-22 (.500) with four doubles and seven RBI. The outfielder should have more stable playing time while Jerar Encarnacion (oblique) is on the injured list -- the two had been platooning in right field, but Encarnacion's injury leaves just one right-handed-hitting full-time outfielder (Heliot Ramos) on the Giants' roster. Yastrzemski is slashing just .170/.214/.264 against southpaws this season, so it's still possible the Giants will eventually change the composition of their outfield to give him a platoon partner. Overall, he's batting .257 with a .748 OPS, five home runs, 13 doubles, one triple, 24 RBI, 28 runs scored and five stolen bases over 252 plate appearances.

Collins went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Cubs.

Collins registered his third multi-hit game in his last seven outings, continuing an impressive run at the plate recently. Across his last 31 plate appearances (nine games), the switch-hitting outfielder is slashing .320/.452/.680 with four extra-base hits, six RBI and six walks. As long as both Blake Perkins (shin) and Garrett Mitchell (oblique) are on the injured list, Collins should be able to play a regular role in Milwaukee's outfield.
