Keith is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox.

Kerry Carpenter will likely be limited to designated-hitter duties for a bit as he overcomes a hamstring issue, which is affecting Keith's playing time. Keith has been absent from the lineup twice in the last three contests after he had started each of the previous seven tilts.

Gimenez went 2-for-3 with a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Phillies.

He was the only Blue Jay to record multiple hits on the night, as Toronto managed only five knocks in total. Gimenez appears set to be an everyday player now that he's back from the injured list, but his value comes from his glove, not his bat -- Wednesday's performance bumped him above a .200 batting average for the first time since April 20.

Lowe went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 5-4 victory over the Rangers.

Lowe blasted his 12th homer of the season Wednesday, and he added to a red-hot stretch at the plate recently. Across his last 20 games, the slugging second baseman is batting .359 (28-for-78) with seven homers, six doubles, 15 RBI and 19 runs scored. Lowe has seven multi-hit efforts during this period, also tallying at least one hit in 18 of these contests.

Schneemann went 3-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Yankees.

Schneemann extended the Guardians' lead to 3-0 in the first inning with a two-run double before swiping third base for his fourth steal in five attempts this season. It's the first multi-hit game since May 6 for Schneemann -- he entered Wednesday with a .188 average (12-for-64) in his previous 21 games. Overall, the 28-year-old Schneemann is slashing .254/.338/.463 with seven homers, 18 RBI and 19 runs scored across 152 plate appearances this season while serving as Cleveland's primary second baseman.

Torres is starting at second base and batting first in Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Torres had settled into the No. 2 position in the order recently with Parker Meadows returning from the injured list and taking over leadoff duties, but the latter is getting a breather Wednesday after two straight starts, which pushes Torres up a spot. The veteran infielder has been steady with a .272/.388/.405 slash line through 49 games with his new team.

The Athletics recalled Muncy from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday.

The A's optioned Muncy to Triple-A in late April after he began the season slashing .176/.211/.279 through 71 plate appearances in the majors. Since being sent down, he's turned things around offensively to the tune of a .901 OPS, which is good enough for him to get another shot with the big club. CJ Alexander was optioned to Las Vegas in a corresponding move.

Dubon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

Dubon seemed to have settled in as the Astros' primary option at second base to close out May, but the promotion of outfielder Jacob Melton over the weekend appears to have indirectly cost Dubon his spot in the team's everyday lineup. With the Astros having thus far opened up regular role for Melton in the outfield, Jose Altuve has moved to second base for three of his past four games, resulting in Dubon hitting the bench for three of those contests.

The White Sox placed Sosa on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a right hip flexor strain.

Sosa injured his hip during Monday's loss to the Tigers, per Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times. He expects to be activated when first eligible June 13, but the ultimate decision lies with the White Sox. For whatever length of time Sosa is sidelined, Tim Elko -- who was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move -- could benefit from a near-everyday role with the White Sox.

Gimenez went 0-for-3 with a walk in Tuesday's loss to the Phillies.

Activated from the IL earlier in the day after being out since May 7 due to a quad strain, Gimenez was back at his usual second base spot and batting ninth against southpaw Cristopher Sanchez. Gimenez is in the lineup for his defense, not his offense, but he'll need to improve on his .191/.272/.298 slash line for the season if he wants to avoid losing playing time to the red-hot Ernie Clement, who posted a .903 OPS in 23 games while Gimenez was sidelined.

Kim (shoulder) is scheduled to play shortstop this week for the first time on rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Kim played second base in his last two games with Durham after being used at designated hitter in his first four contests. After picking up two hits in his first rehab game, the 29-year-old is hitless over his last five tilts. Recovering from right shoulder surgery, Kim is expected to be the Rays' primary shortstop once activated. However, since he's just now getting reintroduced to the position, has yet to play the field in back-to-back days and is off to a sluggish start at the plate, his return from the 60-day injured list wouldn't appear to be imminent.
