Nolan Gorman will take over at the hot corner on Monday night. The decision appears to be precautionary in nature after Arenado jammed his right index finger during Sunday’s lopsided win over the Guardians. The 34-year-old isn’t expected to miss any time, but he’ll get a break from the field, at least until the swelling subsides.

Things unraveled quickly on Fedde in the fifth inning as the Pirates tagged him for six runs on seven hits in the disastrous frame. He failed to record a strikeout over five innings and walked three batters. It was the third time this season that he’s allowed at least seven earned runs with a pair of those outings coming in the last week. He’ll square off against the Cubs’ high-powered lineup on Sunday at Wrigley Field.

Nootbaar has been dealing with some intercostal soreness in the area of his ribs for the past couple days and will open Monday’s contest on the bench for the second straight game. The 27-year-old outfielder was just starting to get into a groove at the plate, so the timing of the issue is frustrating for fantasy managers. It sounds like he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list for now, but that’s hardly a guarantee. It’ll be Brendan Donovan heading out to left field with rookie Thomas Saggese subbing into Monday’s lineup at second base.

He allowed four hits while walking three and striking out four, but only 47 of his 81 pitches went for strikes. The Cardinals are going to need to see more consistency from Mathews before he threatens for MLB innings.

Suárez gave the D-backs some cushion with a solo shot in the eighth inning to extend Arizona’s lead to 4-2. The 33-year-old bopper now has 26 homers on the season, and he’s up to 69 RBI on the season. Suárez is the subject of trade rumors, and it’s important to note that his power can play at any park. Having a chance to drive in runs for a contending team — assuming the Diamondbacks aren’t by the end of next month — wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.

Bregman has expressed optimism that he’ll be able to return before the All-Star break in mid-July. However, Red Sox manager Alex Cora has told reporters that would be unlikely. There should be a definitive timetable once he’s re-assessed this weekend.

Mooney reports that Jed Hoyer, the Cubs’ president of baseball operations, has insinuated that the Cubs plan to be aggressive at the deadline to capitalize on their strong season. Shaw’s “defense has been spectacular, and his offensive production has been lacking,” which means the Cubs could look to add a more consistent option at third base for the playoff push.
