Urshela is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Urshela will get a breather for the day game after a night game, allowing Luis Urias to pick up a start at third base. Though he's been serving as the Athletics' primary option at the hot corner, Urshela's grasp on an everyday role could be slipping while he's struggled to a .182/.206/.273 slash line through his first 35 plate appearances of the season.

The Rangers recalled Duran from Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Duran was just optioned Tuesday but is back a day later as Wyatt Langford (oblique) goes on the injured list. Duran could see some action in the outfield while Langford is shelved.

Smith is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

The Cubs are sending a tough southpaw (Shota Imanaga) to the hill for the series finale, so the lefty-hitting Smith will retreat to the bench. Though Smith no longer has a path to regular playing time at third base with Josh Jung (neck) returning from the injured list earlier this week, Smith could see action in left field if Wyatt Langford requires a stint on the IL after tweaking his oblique Tuesday.

Candelario is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in San Francisco.

Candelario is hitless over his last four games and is batting just .140 on the season, so he will get a day off to regroup. Santiago Espinal will cover third base and bat second for the Reds on Wednesday.

Urshela went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a run scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Padres.

The veteran third baseman doubled his hit total on the season with the performance. Urshela has had a shaky start to the campaign, batting .182 (6-for-33) in 10 games with zero homers, two runs and four RBI, but his starting spot at the hot corner doesn't seem to be in any jeopardy.

Machado went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 10-4 loss to the A's.

The third baseman took Jeffrey Springs deep in the first inning -- Machado's first long ball of the year. He's had a strong start to the campaign overall, slashing .319/.360/.489 through 12 games with five doubles, five RBI, nine runs and five steals on five attempts.

Smith started at first base and went 1-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-6 loss to the Cubs.

Smith's steady gig as a fill-in third baseman ended Tuesday with the return of Josh Jung; however, Texas manager Bruce Bochy wanted to keep Smith's lively bat -- 7-for-17 over the previous six games -- in the lineup. So, the manager gave Jake Burger (.105) a break at first base. Smith could reprise his temporary fill-in role at another position, as left fielder Wyatt Langford (side) was removed in the seventh inning Tuesday.

Candelario started at third base and went 0-for-4 in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Giants.

Candelario's stretch of futility reached 15 at-bats without a hit, and his average dropped to .140. His main competitor for playing time at third base, Gavin Lux, moved to second base to cover for Matt McLain (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday. That seemingly benefits Candelario; however, along with the McLain transaction, the Reds recalled third baseman Noelvi Marte from Triple-A Louisville, and he could eat into Candelario's opportunities.

Jung went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-6 loss to the Cubs.

In his return to the lineup after missing time with neck spasms, Jung picked up right where he left off with a multi-hit effort. The former top prospect is off to an outstanding start at the plate in the early going, having gone 6-for-11 with two extra-base hits and two RBI over three appearances to begin the year.

Miranda went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Kansas City.

Miranda struck out swinging on all three plate appearances Tuesday. He's been punched out 13 times across 32 plate appearances to start the 2025 season and is slashing .156/.156/.250 with one home run and five RBI. Miranda has been getting some extended time at third base due to Royce Lewis (hamstring) and Brooks Lee (back) both being on the 10-day injured list. However, if Miranda doesn't improve at the plate, he could see his playing time dip if the Twins opt to shift Willi Castro to the hot corner while giving Edouard Julien more looks at the keystone.
