Baldwin (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Baldwin hasn't been in the lineup since Aug. 27 due to a hand injury, though he did come off the bench to play second base in Tuesday's blowout loss, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. That appearance indicates the 24-year-old is now healthy and that he's no longer the preferred option at second base. Nicky Lopez is starting at the keystone Wednesday, but Lenyn Sosa started there in three of the previous four games.

The Angels are still "gathering information" on the leg injury Moore suffered during a Double-A game Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Moore departed Friday's Double-A contest in visible pain and hasn't played since. The organization hasn't shared details on the injury or its severity and has yet to come to a "verdict" on the issue, per Fletcher. Since moving to the Double-A level in early August, Moore has slashed .302/.355/.512 with five home runs, 10 RBI, 16 runs and two stolen bases.

Morel is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Twins.

It's a routine day off for Morel, who had started each of the previous eight games. Brandon Lowe will cover second base and Junior Caminero will be in the designated hitter slot for the Rays.

Lopez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

Lopez has a .472 OPS in his past 12 games and will sit Tuesday as southpaw Cade Povich takes the mound for Baltimore. Jacob Amaya will start at shortstop and bat ninth for Chicago.

Baldwin (hand) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

Baldwin hasn't seen the field since Aug. 27 due to a right hand injury, and he's absent from the starting nine once again Tuesday. It's unclear when the 24-year-old will return to the lineup, but the lack of IL move indicates he should still be considered day-to-day.

Torres went 3-for-5 with a double, a run and two RBI in Monday's 8-4 win against Texas.

Torres kicked off the scoring in the contest with a two-run double in the third inning. He had two additional hits for his first multi-hit performance since Aug. 26. Torres has been hitting well for the past few weeks, slashing .327/.393/.490 with two homers, nine RBI and nine runs over his past 12 games.

Sogard isn't in the Red Sox's lineup for Monday's game against the Mets, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Sogard has gone 2-for-16 with seven strikeouts over his last five contests, and the Red Sox will now give him a chance to clear his head Monday. Enmanuel Valdez will pick up a start at the keystone as a result while batting eighth.

Baldwin (hand) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest in Baltimore.

Baldwin hasn't played in nearly a week while battling a right hand injury. The hope is that he'll be ready to go Tuesday, but it's not a given he's back in the lineup. Jacob Amaya and Nicky Lopez will form the White Sox's double-play combination Monday.

The Orioles selected Maton's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Maton will provide some additional infield depth with Ramon Urias (ankle) landing on the 10-day injured list. David Banuelos was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Holliday went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Rockies.

Holliday has three steals this season, all of which have come over the last five games. The 20-year-old hadn't used his speed much earlier in the campaign, though that was partly due to rarely getting on base in his first stint in the majors. Holliday now has a .180/.235/.331 slash line with five home runs, 20 RBI, 24 runs scored, two doubles and two triples over his first 40 big-league games. The Orioles' laundry list of injuries will help Holliday stay in the lineup, but he'll likely remain at the bottom of the order unless his bat gets hot.
