Donaldson (hamstring) will go through another week of "intense baseball activities" before starting a rehab assignment, Yankees manager Aaron Boone told Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger.

It had seemed like a rehab assignment for Donaldson was imminent, but he'll need to get through a few more days of workouts first. That would seem to put him on a timetable to return toward the end of the month, if all goes well. Donaldson has been out since early April with a right hamstring strain.

Wisdom is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Cardinals.

Wisdom still has terrific overall numbers, but he has fallen into a 7-for-40 (.175) slump in the last couple of weeks. Nick Madrigal will play third base Tuesday versus St. Louis. Christopher Morel is at second.

Orioles general manager Mike Elias said that Urias (hamstring) will "miss a good bit of time" after being placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Elias didn't go into detail about how long Urias might be sidelined, but the utility infielder seems likely to miss beyond the minimum 10 days. Urias suffered a left hamstring strain during Monday's game versus the Rays.

LeMahieu is absent from the Yankees' lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Athletics, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

It looks to be a simple day of rest for LeMahieu. Oswaldo Cabrera will handle third base for the Yankees.

Prieto has a .364/.411/.485 slash line with two home runs, three steals and more walks (seven) than strikeouts (five) through 107 plate appearances with Double-A Bowie.

The lefty-hitting Cuban infielder got $650,000 in January of 2022 due to the strength of his hit tool, and thus far he has shown major improvements in a repeat of Double-A, where he was below league average (77 wRC+) in 90 games last year. Prieto's 4.7 percent strikeout rate is by far the best mark in all of Double-A -- next best is Domingo Leyba's 10.1 percent strikeout rate. Prieto, who turns 24 this week, has seen time at second base (11 starts), shortstop (six starts) and third base (five starts).

Reynolds cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

While he's no longer on the Reds' 40-man roster, Reynolds will remain in the organization. He'll likely serve as a utility infielder at Louisville.

Castro is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Rockies, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Castro slugged a two-run homer in the Pirates' defeat of the Rockies on Monday night, but he'll get a breather in the second game of the three-game set at PNC Park. Tucupita Marcano is covering shortstop and batting eighth.

Urias was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Orioles on Tuesday with a strained left hamstring.

Urias suffered the injury during Monday's loss to the Rays. The severity of the strain is unclear at the moment, and therefore, so is Urias' timetable. Urias is sporting a .756 OPS with one home run and two stolen bases in 30 games this season.

The Yankees placed Peraza (ankle) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

The move is retroactive to Saturday, which means Peraza will be eligible to return May 16. While he hadn't played in nearly a week, Peraza was said to be available off the bench in recent days, so it's reasonable to think he might be ready when his 10 days are up.

Segura went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts before being ejected from Monday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

The veteran infielder didn't like the called third strike on his final at-bat of the night and slammed his helmet down in frustration, resulting in the ejection. Segura is slashing .160/.222/.200 over his last 15 games, and per Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, he could get some time off soon to clear his head and work on his swing. "He wants to play and try to get out of it," manager Skip Schumaker said Monday. "Sometimes, guys need a couple days of work, sometimes guys want to keep playing and get through it. There's obviously been conversation on both sides of it. We talk to each player every day about how they feel."
