    Red Sox's Caleb Durbin: Taking seat Tuesday

    Durbin is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Astros, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Durbin is hitless through the first four contests of the season and will get a game to reset Tuesday in Houston. Andruw Monasterio will step in at the hot corner and bat sixth for Boston against Astros righty Hunter Brown.

  • Yoan Moncada 3B | LAA

    Angels' Yoan Moncada: Taking seat Tuesday

    Moncada is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Cubs.

    Moncada homered in Monday's loss to the Cubs, but he'll receive his first day off of the season Tuesday as the Angels look to even the series. Jeimer Candelario will cover third base and bat fifth for the Halos.

  • Coby Mayo 3B | BAL

    Orioles' Coby Mayo: First day off Tuesday

    Mayo is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rangers.

    Mayo started at third base in each of the Orioles' first four games of the season, but he will begin Tuesday's festivities on the bench. Blaze Alexander will start at the hot corner as Baltimore tries to even the series.

  • Isaac Paredes 3B | HOU

    Astros' Isaac Paredes: Out of Tuesday's lineup

    Paredes is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

    Paredes started the first five games of the season across three different positions, and he'll hit the bench Tuesday after going 4-for-19 with two walks, three doubles, four RBI and three runs scored. Yordan Alvarez will serve as the designated hitter while Joey Loperfido receives a start in left field.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Getting Tuesday off

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

    The third baseman will get a day to rest after going 0-for-17 with seven strikeouts to open the campaign. Ezequiel Duran will start at third base in place of Jung on Tuesday as Texas goes up against Baltimore righty Zach Eflin.

  • Jared Triolo 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Jared Triolo: Grabbing seat Tuesday

    Triolo is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Cincinnati.

    Triolo batted leadoff the other time the Pirates faced a lefty, but he will begin this one on the bench. Nick Gonzales is at shortstop and Nick Yorke is handling third base for Pittsburgh against southpaw Brandon Williamson.

  • Noelvi Marte 3B | CIN

    Reds' Noelvi Marte: Getting start versus righty

    Marte will start in right field and bat seventh in Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

    The Pirates are sending right-hander Bubba Chandler to the hill, and Tuesday marks the first time that Marte has been in the lineup against a righty in three matchups this season. Will Benson -- who has been vying for playing time with Marte -- is also in the lineup, as he will slide over to left field while Spencer Steer gets a breather.

  • Brady House 3B | WAS

    Nationals' Brady House: Taking seat Tuesday

    House is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

    House started the first four games of the season at third base for Washington, going 6-for-19 with a homer, three RBI, five runs and seven strikeouts, but he's also committed three errors. Jorbit Vivas will step in at the hot corner Tuesday to face rookie righty Andrew Painter.

  • Jake Burger 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Jake Burger: Continues to rake

    Burger went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over Baltimore.

    Early on, Burger's powerful bat appears to be back after a regression in 2025, when he had a career-low .419 slugging percentage. The first baseman has hit safely and scored a run in all four games thus far, going 8-for-17 with three extra-base hits (two home runs) and six RBI.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Extends hitless run

    Jung went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in Monday's 5-2 win over the Orioles.

    Jung is having a rough start to the regular season. After going 0-for-12 in the season-opening series in Philadelphia, the third basemen extended the futility in Baltimore to 17 at-bats without a hit. His hard-hit rate (30 percent) and average exit velocity (79.9 mph) are worrisome. It could be that he needs time after getting only 18 plate appearances in spring training due to an adductor issue.
