Mullins is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

The left-handed-hitting Mullins will take a seat for the series finale while the Nationals send southpaw Andrew Alvarez to the bump. Jonny DeLuca will replace Mullins in center field and will bat second.

Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays due to right side discomfort.

The 26-year-old is still banged up after colliding with the outfield wall while pursuing a flyball in Saturday's 4-3 win and will be given at least one day off to recover. Dylan Crews will slide over from his usual spot in right field to cover center in Young's absence.

Meyers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Meyers started the previous three games but will take a seat Sunday after going 1-for-19 with a walk, a double, an RBI, a run and four strikeouts during that span. Joey Loperfido is manning center field while Yordan Alvarez handles left in the series finale versus Cleveland.

Tatis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Tatis will receive a day off after a run of 42 straight starts, during which he posted a .298/.357/.387 slash line with nine doubles, two homers, nine steals, 13 RBI and 20 runs scored. Sung-Mun Song is picking up a start at second base while Samad Taylor mans right field for the series finale in Texas.

The Marlins reinstated Conine (hamstring) from the 60-day injured list Sunday. He'll start in right field and bat second in the Marlins' series finale against the Giants.

Conine is back with the big club for the first time since early April after a prolonged absence due to a left hamstring tear that required surgery. During a three-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville, he went 4-for-10 with a home run while making one start apiece at first base and in right and left field. With Miami placing Liam Hicks (back) on the 10-day IL on Sunday, Conine could have a fairly clear runway to regular playing time against right-handed pitching.

Gilbert went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Marlins.

Gilbert hit an RBI single in the second inning, lined a double to center field in the fourth and added another base hit in the eighth. The 25-year-old outfielder has appeared in all 17 of the Giants' games in June, during which he's batting .225 with six runs scored, three RBI and three doubles in 51 plate appearances. Overall, he's slashing .234/.310/.370 with 18 runs scored, 15 RBI and three long balls across 173 plate appearances this season.

Vierling is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Vierling had covered center field in each of the last three games, but he'll give way to James Outman in the series finale. Though Vierling will likely be prioritized in the lineup ahead of Outman against left-handed pitching, manager A.J. Hinch could lean on the hotter bat among the two players when the Tigers face righties. Since the start of June, Vierling has produced a lowly .143/.162/.314 slash line.

Lee went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Marlins.

Lee recorded his second straight multi-hit effort and tallied multiple extra-base hits for the fourth time this season. The 27-year-old outfielder doubled in the second and eighth innings, scoring both times. He's now slashing .331/.361/.462 with 39 runs scored, 26 RBI, four home runs and four stolen bases across 277 plate appearances on the season.

White will start in right field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Brewers.

White will draw a fourth consecutive start at a corner-outfield spot, with Atlanta including him in the lineup three times versus lefties and one versus a righty. Though he's cobbled together a middling .228/.280/.391 slash line over 100 plate appearances on the season, White could be headed for something close to a near-everyday role while Atlanta is without star right fielder Ronald Acuna (hamstring).

Kelenic started in left field and went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Saturday's 6-4 extra-inning loss to San Diego.

Kelenic started his first game for the Rangers, who selected his contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday. With two everyday spots in the outfield locked down (Wyatt Langford and Brandon Nimmo), Kelenic joins a group that includes Alejandro Osuna and Cody Freeman vying for the at-bats that had previously belonged to Evan Carter (oblique). Kelenic, who signed with the organization earlier this month, slashed .340/.431/.620 with three home runs, 11 RBI, three steals and 12 runs over 59 plate appearances at Round Rock before getting back to the majors.
