    Pete Alonso went 2-for-4 with a homer and a walk as the Orioles fell to the Braves 3-2 in 11 innings on Sunday.

    Alonso connected for a solo shot off Dylan Lee in the bottom of the eighth, cutting the deficit to 2-1 at the time. He’s up to 22 homers on the year in his first campaign since signing with the Orioles. Alonso’s wRC+ isn’t as high as the mark he registered hitting alongside Juan Soto last season, but it’s right in line with the two prior seasons. He’s one of the most stable first-base options in fantasy baseball year in and year out.

    Jarren Duran is absent from the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Sunday’s skirmish against the Giants.

    Jeff McNeil is not in the Athletics’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s tilt against the Astros.

    It appears to be nothing more than a routine day of rest for the 34-year-old infielder. Donovan Walton will start in his place at second base and will bat seventh for the Athletics against Astros’ right-hander Cristian Javier.

    CJ Abrams (ankle) was held out of the Nationals’ starting lineup for a fourth consecutive game on Sunday.

    Abrams has made progress in his recovery from a sprained left ankle but still isn’t quite ready to rejoin the Nationals’ lineup. It’s possible that he could be available off the bench on Sunday. Nasim Nuñez will once again cover the shortstop position in his absence and will bat eighth for the Nats against Marlins’ right-hander Janson Junk.

    Marlins designated LHP John King for assignment.

    This move comes as a bit of a surprise as King has actually pitched fairly well for the Marlins this season, registering a 3.99 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and a 33/17 K/BB ratio over 49 2/3 innings of work. He should generate plenty of interest on waivers.

    Marlins recalled RHP Jack Ralston from Triple-A Jacksonville.

    It’s the first trip to the big leagues for the 29-year-old right-hander and it has certainly been earned. Ralston posted a minuscule 1.66 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and a 75/29 K/BB ratio over 59 2/3 innings in 39 appearances at Triple-A Jacksonville. If that can carry over at the MLB level, he could work his way into some high leverage work in the Marlins’ bullpen.

    Dillon Dingler is not in the Tigers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s battle against the Royals.

    Dingler has been really struggling at the dish lately, slashing a woeful .071/.148/.107 with zero homers, four RBI and a 14/4 K/BB ratio over 61 plate appearances in his last 14 games, so giving him a day off to clear his head makes plenty of sense. Eduardo Valencia will do the catching for the Tigers and bat cleanup against Daniel Lynch IV and the Royals on Sunday afternoon in Kansas City.

    Masyn Winn (thumb) remains out of the Cardinals’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Phillies.

    It’s the fourth consecutive game that Winn has found himself on the bench for due to a thumb issue. He’s still considered day-to-day and the Cardinals are hopeful that he’ll be able to return to action early next week. Ramon Urias will start in his place at second base while JJ Wetherholt slides over to cover the shortstop position.

    Alec Bohm (hamstring) is not in the Phillies’ starting lineup for Sunday’s contest against the Cardinals.

    Bohm made an early exit from Saturday’s game due to cramping in his hamstring/groin area, so the Phillies will give him an extra day off to make sure that it doesn’t develop into a long-term issue. Kyle Schwarber will make a rare start at first base in his place while Bryce Harper functions as the team’s designated hitter and Bryan De La Cruz gets a start in right field.

    Luis Arraez (lower body) was held out of the Phillies’ starting lineup for Sunday’s showdown against the Cardinals.

    The 29-year-old infielder was removed from Saturday’s game after three innings due to lower body cramps. It doesn’t sound like anything that should require a trip to the injured list, but the Phillies will give him an extra day to get right. Bryson Stott will slide over and cover second base while Edmundo Sosa starts at third base and will bat eighth for the Phillies against Kyle Leahy and the Cardinals.

    Andrés Giménez (hamstring) is not in the Blue Jays’ starting lineup for Sunday’s battle against the Yankees in New York.

    It’s the third straight game that Giménez has missed after suffering a right hamstring injury. The Blue Jays remain hopeful that he’ll be able to avoid a trip to the injured list. Ernie Clement will once again cover shortstop in his place and will bat sixth against Yankees’ left-hander Carlos Rodon on Sunday afternoon.
