The Astros placed Wade on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a right hamstring strain.

Wade suffered the injury during Monday's game versus the Angels while legging out a double. The severity of his hamstring strain isn't yet known, but even a mild one could result in longer than a minimum 10-day absence. Joey Loperfido was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land to replace Wade on the 26-man active roster.

The Cardinals optioned Scott to Triple-A Memphis on Monday.

Scott remains an elite defensive center fielder, but his bat has become untenable, as he's slashing just .194/.276/.258 across 61 games this season. Nathan Church (shoulder) will be activated from the 10-day injured list to grab Scott's roster spot and is also the favorite to see the bulk of the playing time in center field.

Gurriel (hamstring) began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League Monday, going 1-for-4 with an RBI single.

Gurriel played seven innings in left field Monday in what was his first game action since he went down with a left hamstring strain nearly three weeks ago. He'll eventually move up to a higher affiliate to continue his rehab and is tracking toward a mid-June return from the 10-day injured list.

Marte went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Padres.

Marte singled and stole second base in the sixth inning before scoring Cincinnati's second run. He's started three of the last four contests after being recalled from Triple-A Louisville last week and has recorded hits in all three while scoring two runs. The steal was the second for Marte, who recorded one in an earlier stint with the Reds this season and stole 10 bases over 90 games in 2025. Marte raked while in the minors and will be given an opportunity to reclaim a spot in the outfield.

Arozarena went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's 6-3 win over the Orioles.

Aroazarena's now 7-for-14 with two doubles and four RBI in his last four games. While his power numbers have dropped off -- Arozarena has six homers through 67 games after hitting a career-high 27 last year -- it's been an excellent year overall for the outfielder, who's now slashing .293/.381/.447 with 30 RBI, 43 runs scored and 18 stolen bases.

Soderstrom went 3-for-4 with two home runs, four total RBI and two walks in Monday's 15-14 extra-innings loss to the Brewers.

Soderstrom was blistering hot at the plate, launching a three-run homer in the third inning before going deep again with a solo shot in the seventh frame, with both blasts coming against southpaws. Since May 20, the 24-year-old is slashing .371/.487/.694 with five homers, 14 RBI and seven runs across 18 appearances. The surge has boosted his season line to .237/.333/.457 with 10 homers, 34 RBI and 29 runs after a pedestrian start to the campaign.

Taylor went 2-for-4 with three RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's win over Cincinnati.

Taylor came through in the late stages of Monday's win, giving San Diego the lead on an RBI bunt single in the seventh inning before depositing a two-RBI single into left field in the eighth frame to extend the lead. The 27-year-old was called up Wednesday from Triple-A El Paso and hasn't found much success in prior major-league opportunities, but he could receive some looks in left field due to Ramon Laureano (hip) being expected to miss the remainder of the season.

Martinez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in an extra-inning loss to the Yankees on Monday.

Martinez gave Cleveland its first and only lead in the sixth inning with a two-run, 414-foot homer off Paul Blackburn. The long ball snapped a 17-game homer drought for the 24-year-old, who batted a meager .156 during that span. Despite that recent slump and an aversion to taking walks (he has just seven through 228 plate appearances), Martinez has managed to carve out some fantasy value thanks to his 10 homers and nine stolen bases on the campaign.

Wade left Monday's game against the Angels with right hamstring soreness, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Wade appeared to suffer the injury while legging out a double in the top half of the sixth inning, and he needed to come out of the game immediately after. He can be considered day-to-day until the club has a chance to evaluate him further. Brice Matthews entered the game in Wade's place.

Cruz suffered a cut on his hand during Saturday's game against Atlanta and is being considered day-to-day, Jeff Hathhorn of 93.7 The Fan reports.

Cruz was held out of the lineup Sunday after suffering a cut on his hand while sliding into home plate. However, the club is confident that the star outfielder will be able to avoid a trip to the injured list, and he'll presumably be re-evaluated before Tuesday's series opener against the Dodgers to determine if he can be penciled into the starting nine.
