Calhoun (personal) will be reinstated from the paternity list ahead of Friday's series opener against the Royals.

Luis Rengifo was sent back to the minors following Wednesday's game against the Twins to free up a roster spot for Calhoun, who will rejoin the Angels after missing a pair of games attending the birth of his child. Calhoun, who is hitting .238/.323/.490 with nine homers and a pair of stolen bases on the season, should immediately rejoin the lineup against right-hander Brad Keller on Friday.

Cabrera is out of the lineup for the Thursday's game against the Royals, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 33-year-old will receive some routine maintenance for the day game after the night game, with Logan Forsythe spelling him at third base. Cabrera had started each of the Rangers' last 13 games, slashing .222/.327/.356 over that span.

Diaz said he was dealing with some pain in his ankle but hopes to play Friday against the Yankees, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Diaz exited Wednesday's game after he appeared to roll his left ankle while running the bases, though he initially attempted to stay in the game. The 27-year-old will have Thursday's off day to recover before attempting to start the series against the Yankees on Friday.

Diaz left Wednesday's game at Miami due to left ankle discomfort, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Diaz was removed for the bottom of the seventh inning, but the injury appeared to occur earlier in the game when he made a late stop running the bases between third and home. The 28-year-old will have a full day to recover with Thursday's scheduled off day and should be considered day-to-day ahead of this weekend's series against the Yankees.

O'Hearn is on the bench Wednesday against lefty Mike Minor and the Rangers.

O'Hearn has started against just three of the 12 lefties the Royals have faced this season. Hunter Dozier starts at first base, with Kelvin Gutierrez at third.

Cron went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Tuesday's win over the Angels.

Cron came up empty for the third straight game following a 10-for-17 run with a trio of home runs during the four games prior to this. He's now batting .237 with nine homers, 23 RBI and 16 runs scored and remains a rather one-dimensional fantasy option.

Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Giants.

The 20-year-old struggled through his first 20 games in the majors but finally went yard Tuesday, absolutely pulverizing a first-inning fastball from Nick Vincent and a sixth-inning changeup from Reyes Moronta -- with the two blasts traveling a combined 889 feet. Guerrero raised his slash line to .235/.328/.392 with the performance, and his numbers could climb rapidly now that he's finding his stroke again.

Bour was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake after Tuesday's loss to the Twins, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Bour started just two of seven games after Shohei Ohtani (elbow) returned from the injured list, and his .163/.268/.316 slash line and lack of defensive versatility made him an unappealing bench option. Albert Pujols and Ohtani should continue to handle the everyday duties at first base and designated hitter for the Angels, respectively.

Tellez isn't in Tuesday's starting lineup against the Giants.

The Blue Jays are playing in a National League park for the next two days, so Tellez will bow out of the starting nine with no designated hitter slot available.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.

The hand injury which cost him 34 games doesn't seem to be affecting Olson's power stroke at all, despite an earlier-than-expected return from the IL -- he's now gone yard in back-to-back games. The first baseman now sports a .219/.324/.438 slash line in nine contests sandwiched around the injury.
