Peraza is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Boston.

Following a stretch of six straight starts, Peraza has now been out of the lineup for three consecutive tilts. Vaughn Grissom is covering third base, and Moises Ballesteros will be at first base for the Angels on Monday.

Sogard is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Angels.

Sogard will receive a day of rest after starting each of the last 36 games. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will slot in at second base for the Red Sox in Monday's series opener.

Foscue started at second base and went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Sunday's 8-6 win over Tampa Bay.

Per usual, Foscue was in the lineup against a left-handed starter, and he delivered a game-tying double in the fourth inning to erase the Rays' early lead. He's hit safely in five straight games, going 5-for-14 with two doubles, one home run and five RBI during that streak. When not starting, he's often a mid-game replacement when opponents bring in a lefty reliever.

Bazzana went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and was caught stealing in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Tigers.

Bazzana hit the second of back-to-back doubles in the first inning to knock in the Guardians' first run. He later singled in the eighth inning to give him a third straight two-hit game. Bazzana is 6-for-15 with two doubles, a home run and five RBI in six September contests.

Brito started at second base and went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 12-8 win over Milwaukee.

Brito returned to the starting lineup after a two-game hiatus, as Matt McLain moved to shortstop so that Elly De La Cruz could get a break as the designated hitter. Brito has made an impact in his short time on the major-league roster, contributing to a pair of wins. He's gone 4-for-11 with two extra-base hits (one home run), five RBI, one steal and four runs scored over four games (three starts).

Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Young had started each of the Mariners' last nine games, but after producing a poor .188/.333/.250 slash line during that stretch, he'll hit the bench Sunday. The Mariners called up one of their top prospects in Michael Arroyo from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday, and he'll immediately enter the lineup in place of Young, starting at second base against left-hander Gage Jump. The right-handed-hitting Arroyo could end up settling into a platoon at the keystone with Young, who is batting .218/.278/.294 (69 wRC+) over 187 plate appearances versus lefties.

Amador will start at second base and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Amador has been the main beneficiary of a left heel injury to Willi Castro, which sent the infielder to the shelf Saturday. The 23-year-old will cover the keystone for a third straight game and will stay in the lineup for the fifth consecutive contest overall after going 7-for-15 with a home run, a double, a walk, three RBI and four runs since being recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Norby is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Norby will get a breather after he had started in each of the last 13 games while slashing .271/.375/.354 with one home run, one double, seven walks, nine RBI and eight runs during that stretch. Vimael Machin will get the nod at third base in his stead Sunday, but Norby should have a clear path to an everyday role while Kyle Karros (concussion) and Willi Castro (foot) remain on the shelf.

Massey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

The Royals will give Massey a break while Nick Loftin fills in for him at second base. Massey had started in each of the Royals' last four games, going 5-for-14 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and an RBI following his return from the 7-day concussion injured list.

The Mariners selected Arroyo's contract from Triple-A Tacoma, and he'll start at second base and bat eighth Sunday against the Athletics.

The 21-year-old has made the transition to left field this season but has continued to see action at second base for Tacoma, and the latter position is where he'll make his MLB debut. Arroyo, who is one of Seattle's top prospects, opened the campaign with Double-A Arkansas before being promoted to Triple-A in early July. He's posted an .830 OPS with 18 home runs and 17 steals in 114 games between the two levels.
