Harris was placed on the 7-day injured list at Double-A Frisco on Wednesday. He was seen with a brace on his wrist from an injury suffered Saturday, Michael Tepid of Loonestarball.com reports.

Harris is hitting .259 with 18 home runs and 19 stolen bases with a .831 OPS in Double-A in 86 games this season. He's a dark-horse candidate to be called up to the majors in September, so the hope will be that this injury doesn't sidetrack the rest of his season.

Wade is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The lefty-hitting Wade will find himself on the bench with southpaw Sean Manaea taking the hill for San Diego. Wade had made each of his last three starts as the Giants' designated hitter, but he may not have a clear path to a regular lineup spot now that Evan Longoria has returned from the injured list. The Giants could open up room in the corner outfield for Wade if they decide to cut bait on Luis Gonzalez, who enters Wednesday's contest having gone 0-for-17 over his last five starts.

Rizzo (back) is starting at first base and batting third in Wednesday's series finale against the Mariners.

Rizzo will be back in the lineup after missing the last five games while nursing lower-back tightness. Prior to going down with the injury, the 33-year-old went 6-for-19 with four homers, eight RBI and six runs over his last five games.

Kirilloff underwent successful surgery Tuesday in Los Angeles to shorten the ulnar bone in his right wrist and clean up scar tissue, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.

Kirilloff's season will come to an early end for the second year in a row due to right wrist surgery, with his latest procedure performed by Dr. Steven Shin and considered more uncommon than the prior one, which involved ligament damage. It's the third major surgery of the 24-year-old's professional career, as he previously missed the entire 2017 minor-league season while recovering from Tommy John surgery. The Twins are hopeful that Tuesday's procedure will provide a more permanent fix for Kirilloff's lingering wrist issues, and the expectation is that he'll be ready to go for spring training. He concludes the 2022 campaign with a .250 average, three home runs, 21 RBI and 14 runs over 155 plate appearances with the big club.

Tellez isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Tellez has started mainly against right-handed pitchers recently, and he'll get a breather Wednesday with southpaw Jeffrey Springs on the mound for the Rays. Keston Hiura will start at first base and bat sixth.

Raley is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Raley started each of the Rays' past four games at either designated hitter or in a corner-outfield spot, going 2-for-13 with two walks and seven strikeouts. The 27-year-old is now sitting on a .580 OPS and a 31.9 percent strikeout rate in his 69 plate appearances in the majors this season, so it wouldn't be surprising if Raley sees his opportunities get scaled back in the near future.

Wade went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.

Wade has gone yard twice in his last three games, an encouraging uptick after he hit the same number of homers in 20 contests in July. The 28-year-old's first-inning blast was the Giants' only run until they rallied for three more in the ninth. Through 113 plate appearances, Wade is slashing .189/.310/.400 with five homers, 17 RBI and 11 runs scored. He's often been the odd man out in the Giants' lefty-heavy outfield when a southpaw starts for the opponent.

Diaz went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run Tuesday against the Brewers.

Diaz took Freddy Peralta deep in the third inning to tally his sixth homer of the season. He entered the game hitless across his last five starts -- spanning 19 at-bats -- and has struggled to a .185 batting average in 14 games since the All-Star break. Even so, Diaz remains the Rays' primary leadoff hitter, and he is hitting .277/.392/.393 across 401 plate appearances for the season.

Pratto went 3-for-7 with a two-run home run, a sacrifice fly and three strikeouts as the Royals split Tuesday's doubleheader versus the White Sox.

Pratto's two-run home during the sixth inning of Game 1 extended Kansas City's lead to 4-1, and he also delivered a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning of the nightcap to cut the deficit to one run. The 23-year-old was called up by the Royals in mid-July, and he has a .212/.316/.439 slash line with three home runs, eight RBI and six runs in his first 21 big-league games. However, he's also struck out 26 times in 79 plate appearances.

Cron went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double, five RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 16-5 win over the Cardinals.

Cron opened the scoring with a three-run homer in the first inning. In the third, he plated another pair with a double as part of a nine-run frame. The first baseman has recorded five multi-hit efforts through nine games in August, going 12-for-40 (.300) with a homer and five doubles in that span. He's up to a .280/.330/.514 slash line with 23 long balls, 79 RBI, 62 runs scored and 26 doubles through 108 contests.
