Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Mike Moustakas (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs.

Chicago Cubs shortstop Addison Russell (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Kendrys Morales is Back in the Lineup on Tuesday
Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Kendrys Morales is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Boston Red Sox.

Chris Taylor Will Lead Off on Monday
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor will lead off and play left field versus lefty Cody Reed on Monday.
