Jung started at third base and went 0-for-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over Kansas City.

Jung returned to the starting lineup after getting a three-game break, but his night ended after five innings. Josh Smith entered as a pinch hitter in the sixth against right-handed reliever Taylor Clarke. It looked like a brief July stint in the minors had straightened out Jung, who went 13-for-34 (.382) with four walks, three home runs, eight RBI and eight runs scored over his first 11 games back in the majors. Since then, however, the third baseman is batting .128 with two walks and two RBI over 12 games.

Moncada went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 2-1 win against the Reds on Wednesday.

Offense was sparse on both sides, and Moncada hit the only homer in the contest with a solo shot to center field in the fourth inning. The long ball snapped a 20-game homer drought for the third baseman dating back to July 19. Moncada batted a meager .208 with 19 strikeouts during that rough stretch, though he may be turning things around -- over his past eight contests, he's batting .333 (8-for-24) with three extra-base hits and four RBI.

Lewis is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Athletics.

Lewis will receive a routine day off after starting each of the previous eight games. Ryan Fitzgerald will cover third base and bat ninth for Minnesota.

Caballero went 2-for-4 with two home runs, a walk and three total RBI in Tuesday's 13-3 rout over Tampa Bay.

The Yankees tied a franchise record with nine total home runs in the romp, with three different players clubbing two long balls apiece. Caballero was the least likely of those three -- coming into the contest, he had gone 50 games since his last home run and had belted just two over 96 games on the season. The unexpected power display was another notch in what has been an explosive four-game stretch for the utility man. Caballero has started in each of those four contests at three different positions (right field, shortstop and third base) while going a scorching 7-for-15 at the plate with six runs, four RBI and four stolen bases. While he doesn't have an everyday spot in the lineup and is part of a crowded roster, Caballero's hot stretch has made it hard for the manager Aaron Boone to leave him out of the starting nine.

Clement is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Pittsburgh.

Clement will get a rare day off after having started every game for the Blue Jays since July 11. Addison Barger will cover third base for Toronto in Wednesday's matinee.

Vargas went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, one RBI and three runs scored Tuesday against Atlanta.

Vargas has started all seven games since returning from the injured list, with Tuesday marking his third multi-hit effort in that span. He also extended his hitting streak to five games, during which he's gone 8-for-21 with an RBI, two doubles and four runs scored.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, two walks and a second run scored in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Ramirez has gone 16-for-65 (.246) over 17 contests in August, though he's also posted an 8:8 BB:K while adding five homers and five steals this month. The third baseman doesn't have to hit for a high average to remain productive in nearly every other category. For the season, he's at 26 long balls, 36 steals, 66 RBI, 81 runs scored, 23 doubles, two triples and a .291/.365/.518 slash line through 122 contests. His .883 OPS is his highest since 2021, though he hasn't been under .800 for a whole year since 2015.

Jung is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals.

It's the third straight game on the bench for Jung, who has a .179/.238/.308 slash line and 28.6 percent strikeout rate through 12 games in August. Josh Smith will instead man third base while Rowdy Tellez receives another start at first.

Westburg (ankle) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

Westburg exited Monday's contest with right ankle discomfort, so it's not a surprise he's sitting out Tuesday, especially with the Orioles having an off day Wednesday. He's considered day-to-day. Luis Vazquez is starting at third base and batting eighth Tuesday.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said in his appearance on Jomboy Media's "Talkin' Yanks" podcast that McMahon will be out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

McMahon will get his second day off overall and first day off against a right-handed starter (Shane Baz) since he was acquired from the Rockies on July 25. Jose Caballero will play third base and bat ninth Tuesday.
