The Orioles designated Machin for assignment Wednesday.

Machin saw a bit of playing time at third base as the Orioles deal with the absence of Jordan Westburg (ankle), going 1-for-11 with a home run. He's being replaced on the roster by Emmanuel Rivera, and Machin stands a good chance of clearing waivers.

Ramirez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

The Guardians are leaving Ramirez out of the starting nine for just the fourth occasion all season and for the first time since June 27. Ramirez's absence appears to be little more than a routine breather, as the Guardians are closing out the series with a day game after a night game before beginning a stretch of 17 games in 17 days following Thursday's off day.

McKinstry went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

McKinstry has been on a nice run lately, as he's batting .323 over his last 10 games with a home run, two stolen bases, four RBI and five runs scored. The veteran utility player has had a strong year overall, slashing .265/.342/.448 across 120 contests. It's been a big offensive jump for McKinstry, who has a career slash line of just .232/.300/.381 in six MLB seasons.

Suarez went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the Padres.

Suarez sparked Seattle with a go-ahead three-run homer in the fifth inning, but the momentum was short-lived as San Diego answered back in the sixth inning and held on for the win. Since being dealt from Arizona at the trade deadline, the third baseman has struggled to replicate his previous success, slashing .174/.250/.395 with four doubles, five homers and 14 RBI across 24 games in his second career stint in a Mariners uniform.

McMahon is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

The Yankees have faced very few left-handed pitchers over the last several weeks, but McMahon has now yielded third base to Amed Rosario each of the last two times the club has gone up against a southpaw. The Nationals are sending lefty MacKenzie Gore to the bump Tuesday.

Caminero went 4-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI, two additional runs scored and one stolen base in Monday's 9-0 win over Cleveland.

Caminero pushed his hitting streak up to five games, and he now has four homers over his past four outings. The four-hit game was Caminero's third of the year, and Monday marked his fourth multi-homer effort of the campaign as well. The slugging third baseman is on a tear in August, batting .301 with 12 round-trippers, two doubles, 23 RBI and two steals over his last 83 at-bats.

Jung will start at third base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Angels.

The Rangers benched Jung for four out of five games from Aug. 17 through this past Thursday, but he appears to have taken back control of the primary starting gig at third base from Cody Freeman. Jung will pick up his fourth consecutive start Monday after he went 4-for-10 with one home run, one walk, four runs and two RBI during the Rangers' weekend sweep of the Guardians.

The Athletics announced Monday that Muncy (hand) has begun a hitting progression, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

The rookie infielder is finally ready to start hitting again after being sidelined since late July with a hairline fracture at the base of the fourth metacarpal in his right hand. Muncy will need time to ramp back up and will likely require a rehab stint before being activated from the 10-day injured list.

Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino said Monday that Westburg (ankle) will not be ready for activation from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Friday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

The Orioles have a road trip that runs through Sept. 3, and Westburg isn't expected to be available at any point during that trip. He might be ready to rejoin the team for the start of a homestand Sept. 5, but that will depend on how he progresses over the next several days. According to Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun, Mansolino said that Westburg was able to do some sprinting on the field Monday, but is still "ginger" while running. The Orioles have been using a combination of Luis Vazquez, Vimael Machin and Jeremiah Jackson at third base since Westburg went down with the right ankle sprain last week.

Barger is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.

Barger is not dealing with any known injury, so his absence from the lineup for a second straight day appears to be a bit of a reset as he battles through a 5-for-38 slump at the dish. Nathan Lukes will start in right field and bat second for the Blue Jays on Monday.
