Sanchez went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a double during Tuesday's 3-2 win over Philadelphia.

The Blue Jays were kept off the board through the first five innings, but Sanchez changed that with a solo blast off Zack Wheeler in the sixth to tie the game at 1-1. Sanchez tied a season high with three knocks, and Tuesday marked his 12th multi-hit game of the season. Three of those multi-hit games have come over his last five outings, a span in which he has gone 8-for-17 with three extra-base hits and three runs scored.

Isbel was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rangers due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Isbel had gone 1-for-2 with a walk before his foot forced him out of the game in the seventh inning. His injury could require him to spend time on the injured list, though the club hasn't confirmed anything just yet. Lane Thomas and Tyler Tolbert would be next in line to pick up starts in center field during any games Isbel has to miss.

Vilade went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored during the Rays' 4-3 win over the Red Sox on Tuesday.

Vilade crossed home in the fourth inning on an RBI single from Cedric Mullins, the first run for the Rays in Tuesday's win. It was the seventh multi-hit game of the season for Vilade, two of which have come over his last four games. He's in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, and over that span he has gone 9-for-21 (.429) with a steal, five RBI and three extra-base hits.

Acuna exited Tuesday's contest against the White Sox in the fourth inning due to left hamstring tightness.

Acuna was busting it down the line in an attempt to secure an infield single in the top of the fourth inning, but he pulled up lame as he approached first base. The outfielder appeared to have tweaked his left leg in the process, and he was subsequently removed from the game. More information on Acuna's status will likely be provided in the near future, but in the meantime, Eli White has taken over in right field versus Chicago.

Trammell is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Angels.

Crews is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Giants.

Crews had started in each of the last six games, going 3-for-24 with no walks, a home run and three RBI. Daylen Lile, Jacob Young and James Wood are the starting outfielders for the Nationals on Tuesday as Crews gets some rest.

Gilbert is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Nationals.

The Nationals are sending southpaw Andrew Alvarez to the mound Tuesday, so the left-handed-hitting Gilbert will take a seat. Jonah Cox gets the start in center field, batting ninth.

The Cubs reinstated Shaw (back) from the injured list Tuesday, Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Shaw has been on the shelf since late May due to back tightness, but he's been cleared to return after going 4-for-14 with an RBI, two runs and a steal in four rehab games at Triple-A Iowa. The 24-year-old has slashed just .242/.291/.400 across 104 plate appearances this season, though he could still receive an uptick in playing time with Nico Hoerner, Alex Bregman and Dansby Swanson all struggling offensively as of late. Kevin Alcantara was optioned to Iowa in a corresponding move.

Cruz (hand) was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

Cruz hasn't played since Saturday due to a cut on his hand, and although he was originally expected to return to the starting nine Tuesday, the Pirates have decided to instead keep him on the bench for another game. Jake Mangum will fill in as Pittsburgh's center fielder and bat seventh.
