  • Alex Bregman 3B | CHC

    Cubs' Alex Bregman: Nearly hits for cycle Wednesday

    Bregman went 3-for-4 with a home run, a triple, a double and four RBI during Wednesday's 8-4 win over Atlanta.

    Bregman got the Cubs on the board early with an RBI double in the first inning before adding a solo homer in the fourth and a two-run triple in the fifth, falling a single shy from recording the first cycle of his major-league career. The veteran third baseman has had his ups and downs this season, but he's been plenty productive overall with a robust .812 OPS, 26 home runs, 88 RBI and three steals across 681 plate appearances this season.

  • Brady House 3B | WAS

    Nationals' Brady House: Out of lineup Wednesday

    House is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Phillies.

    House manned third base in the first game of the series Tuesday, but he'll take a seat in this one. Jorbit Vivas will cover the hot corner for the Nationals on Wednesday.

  • Nick Gonzales 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Out of Pittsburgh lineup

    Gonzales is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Brewers.

    The Pirates will go with Jacob Gonzalez at third base. Gonzales is slashing .303/.411/.368 across his last 90 plate appearances for Pittsburgh.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: Sitting versus southpaw

    Muncy is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati.

    The left-handed-swinging Muncy will grab a seat as the Reds send southpaw Andrew Abbott to the bump. Enrique Hernandez will man the hot corner for the Dodgers in Muncy's stead.

  • Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN

    Reds' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Out of Reds' lineup

    Hayes is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Dodgers.

    Hayes has now started only one of the last four contests for the Reds. Cincinnati will go with Eugenio Suarez at third base and Tyler Stephenson in the designated hitter slot.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Back in action for Tigers

    Keith (thumb) will start at designated hitter and bat third in Wednesday's game versus the Blue Jays.

    Keith was scratched from Monday's lineup with left thumb soreness and did not play Tuesday. However, he feels well enough to serve as the DH on Wednesday as the Tigers look to complete the series sweep.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Swats another walk-off homer

    Caminero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the A's.

    For the second time in five days, Caminero walked it off for the Rays, this time by getting hold of a 100.4-mph fastball from Elvis Alvarado and driving it the other way to clear the fence in the right-field corner. Caminero is up to 41 homers on the season, first in the American League and third in the majors behind the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber (45) and the Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong (42), and the 23-year-old needs four more RBI to reach 100 for the second straight year.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Cardinals' Ramon Urias: DFA'd by Cardinals

    The Cardinals designated Urias for assignment Wednesday.

    Urias has been limited to only 43 games this season due to tennis elbow in both arms, and he's slashed just .151/.260/.326 in those contests. The veteran infielder is likely to pass through waivers and reach free agency.

  • Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Expected to play Wednesday

    Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said following Tuesday's game that Arenado (thumb) will be in the lineup Wednesday, Arizona Sports reports.

    Arenado was removed from Tuesday's game due to the injury that flared up following a fifth-inning at-bat. He played another inning before being replaced by Jose Fernandez. Fernandez or Ildemaro Vargas would be in line to replace Arenado at the hot corner should the thumb injury linger.

  • Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Pulled with thumb injury

    Arenado was removed from Tuesday's game against the Marlins due to right thumb inflammation.

    Arenado went 1-for-3 before his thumb forced him out of the game in the seventh inning. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but if the 35-year-old has to miss time beyond Tuesday, Ildemaro Vargas would likely be the next man up to start at the hot corner.
