Chisholm has been diagnosed with a right thumb sprain and will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

Chisholm suffered the injury on a slide into second base during Tuesday's game versus the Rockies. He will be shut down from baseball activities for 7-to-10 days before being re-evaluated. Given the timing of the injury, it's possible Chisholm won't make it back before the end of the regular season. Anthony Volpe could replace Chisholm on the active roster, and if that happens Volpe is an option to share starts at second base with Jose Caballero.

Chisholm (thumb) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rockies.

Chisholm had to be lifted from Tuesday's contest against the Rockies after hurting his right thumb on a slide into second base. He is listed among the Yankees' reserves on the lineup card, so Chisholm has avoided a trip to the injured list for the time being. Jose Caballero is stepping in at second base in Chisholm's stead.

Cronenworth is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Nationals.

He's getting a routine day off after starting each of the previous six games. Fernando Tatis will net a start at second base, and Jase Bowen will play right field for the Padres in the series finale.

Basabe is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Cardinals.

Basabe started the previous five contests for the Giants, but he'll exit the lineup for Wednesday's series finale. Jonah Cox will handle second base in Basabe's stead.

McNeil is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Blue Jays.

McNeil started each of the previous 12 contests for the Athletics, but he'll take a seat during Wednesday's matinee. Tommy White will handle first base, and Donovan Walton will be covering second base for the rubber match.

Walton went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Blue Jays.

Walton roped a solo homer off Jose Soriano in the seventh inning to cut the deficit to 4-2, though no further comeback ensued for the Athletics. The journeyman infielder has started each of the past five contests at second base, going 3-for-15 (.200) during that stretch. In 76 games between the Angels and Athletics this season, Walton is hitting .272/.380/.451 with six homers, 23 RBI, 33 runs and two stolen bases.

Lee is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Twins.

After making 17 straight starts, Lee has now been on the bench for two of three during the series versus the Twins. Gleyber Torres will be at second base, and Kevin McGonigle will play third base for the Tigers.

Clemens went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Tigers.

The 30-year-old slugger played hero Tuesday, taking Drew Anderson deep in the sixth inning to flip the script on a 2-1 deficit. Clemens has reached 25 homers on the season for the first time in his career, and four of them have come in the last 11 games -- a stretch in which he sports a .243/.370/.568 slash line with seven RBI and eight runs.

Lopez started at second base and went 3-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-5 win over Seattle.

Lopez made his first start since Aug. 19. At one point, he was the primary second baseman, but he's fallen into a part-time role since the middle of August. That dip in playing time coincides with an ineffective bat; Lopez entered Tuesday's contest with a .136/.197/.186 slash line over his 68 plate appearances.

Bazzana went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Tuesday's 9-5 win over the Orioles.

Bazzana launched a three-run shot in the second inning as the Guardians raced to a 6-0 lead after three innings. The rookie has hit safely in four consecutive games, going 7-for-14 with two doubles, two homers and eight RBI during that run. Bazzana's bat is showing life once again after a languid August (.566 OPS).
