Urshela went 3-for-4 with a double and three runs scored in Wednesday's win over the White Sox.

Urshela notched a double off righty starter Johnny Cueto during his three-hit, three-run affair. The third baseman has been heating up of late, going 10-for-16 with two doubles, two RBI and five runs over his last four games.

Rendon (wrist) was activated from the 60-day injured list and will begin serving his five-game suspension Wednesday against the Athletics, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

The 32-year-old seemed likely to be out for the season after he underwent wrist surgery in June, but he progressed to hitting against live pitching this week and will rejoin the Angels for the final week of the season. Rendon will first serve a five-game suspension stemming from a brawl with the Mariners shortly after the wrist surgery, and he'll be eligible to take the field for Monday in Oakland for the final three games of the campaign.

Moncada isn't starting Wednesday against the Twins due to a bone bruise on the top of his foot, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Moncada sustained his injury when fouling a ball off his foot late in Tuesday's loss to the Twins, and he'll undergo X-rays to determine the extent of the issue. He's considered day-to-day for now, but Josh Harrison should see increased time at third base if Moncada is forced to miss additional time.

LeMahieu (toe) will be reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's game against the Orioles, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Manager Aaron Boone hinted early this week that LeMahieu was in the mix to return to action Wednesday, but the team elected to give the second baseman two extra days off. Boone also indicated last week that LeMahieu likely won't be 100 percent healthy when he's activated, but the 34-year-old will have a few chances to appear in regular-season games ahead of postseason play.

Moncada isn't starting Wednesday against Minnesota.

Moncada is getting a breather after he went 2-for-7 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and a strikeout over the last two games. Josh Harrison will take over at the hot corner and bat eighth.

The Orioles recalled Nevin from Triple-A Norfolk, and he'll start at third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Nevin is joining the Orioles' 28-man active roster as a replacement for Ramon Urias (knee), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Assuming he sticks with Baltimore through the final week of the season, Nevin will likely form the short side of a platoon at the hot corner with the lefty-hitting Gunnar Henderson, who is sitting against Boston southpaw Rich Hill.

Henderson isn't starting Wednesday against the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Henderson has gone just 1-for-19 with a homer, two runs, two RBI, five walks and nine strikeouts over his last six games, and he'll get a day off Wednesday. Tyler Nevin is starting at the hot corner and batting sixth.

The Orioles placed Urias on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right knee sprain.

Urias was diagnosed with the injury after he went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and a triple before exiting Tuesday's 13-9 loss to the Red Sox. Though his injury isn't believed to anything significant, his move to the IL will officially spell an end to his 2022 campaign, barring the Orioles overcoming long odds to clinch a wild-card berth. In his 445 plate appearances this season, the 28-year-old infielder contributed 16 home runs, 51 RBI, 50 runs and one stolen base to go with a .248/.305/.414 slash line.

Devers went 2-for-4 with a walk and two RBI in Tuesday's 13-9 win over the Orioles.

After pounding out a double and a pair of base hits in Monday's 14-8 loss, Devers continued to torture Baltimore pitching in the second game of the series with another two singles. Devers, who is hitting .366 over his last 10 games, will start at third base and bat second in Wednesday's game, according to Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican.

Suarez (finger), activated from the injured list earlier in the day, went 0-for-3 with a walk while serving as the designated hitter in a loss to the Rangers on Tuesday.

The Associated Press reports Suarez took grounders in the infield prior to the game to test out his finger, and the decision was apparently made at that point for him to hold off on playing defense for at least Tuesday's game. Suarez was at least able to return from his IL stint in minimum time, and his bat figures to be key in the Mariners trying to snap their untimely late-season funk and lock down an AL wild-card spot.
