Andrew McCutchen DH | TEX
Phillies' Andrew McCutchen: Reinstated from injured list
McCutchen (knee) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
McCutchen will return from the 10-day IL on his first day of eligibility after he recovered from left knee inflammation. He'll reclaim his job as the primary left fielder and will be in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Mark Canha LF | TEX
Athletics' Mark Canha: Back in action Wednesday
Canha (eye) is starting Wednesday's game against Cleveland.
Canha was removed from Tuesday's win in the 10th inning due to eye irritation, but he'll start in left field and lead off Wednesday. The 32-year-old has gone 3-for-19 with a double, five runs, four walks and four strikeouts across the last five games.

Justin Turner DH | CHC
Dodgers' Justin Turner: Remains out Wednesday
Turner (groin) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Manager Dave Roberts said a day earlier that Turner isn't likely to play until Friday's series opener in New York versus the Mets, so his absence from the starting nine for the second straight day comes as little surprise. Chris Taylor will once again fill in for Turner at third base while batting fifth for the Dodgers.

Joc Pederson DH | TEX
Braves' Joc Pederson: Sits against lefty
Pederson isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.
Pederson will be on the bench against left-hander Wade Miley after he went 1-for-12 with three walks and four strikeouts across the last four games. Guillermo Heredia will start in center field and bat eighth.

Ji-Man Choi 1B | NYM
Rays' Ji-Man Choi: Starting Wednesday
Choi (hamstring) is starting Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Choi entered Tuesday's game as a pinch hitter but exited the contest due to left hamstring soreness. However, the injury won't force him to miss additional time, as he'll start at first base and bat second Wednesday.
-
Giancarlo Stanton DH | NYY
Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Takes seat Wednesday
Stanton isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Stanton recorded five consecutive multi-hit games late last week, but he's cooled off recently and has gone 1-for-11 with three walks and three strikeouts across the last three games. Aaron Judge will serve as the designated hitter while Joey Gallo shifts to right field.

Charlie Blackmon RF | COL
Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Resting for series finale
Blackmon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
With the Rockies and Astros wrapping up their series with a day game after a night game and with a southpaw (Framber Valdez) on the hill for Houston, the lefty-hitting Blackmon will receive a maintenance day. Yonathan Daza will cover right field and bat second in Blackmon's stead.
-
Kyle Lewis DH | ARI
Mariners' Kyle Lewis: Taking batting practice
Lewis (knee) will take batting practice on the field during the Mariners' current homestand, which runs through Sunday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Lewis has recently been taking part in baseball activities, but the batting practice will be his first on-field work since landing on the shelf in late May. The 26-year-old remains without a timetable for his return, though manager Scott Servais is confident the outfielder will take the field again this season. Lewis will need to continue ramping up his rehab work before embarking on what could be a lengthy rehab assignment.

Mark Canha LF | TEX
Athletics' Mark Canha: Exits with eye issue
Canha was removed from Tuesday's win over Cleveland with eye irritation, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Canha went 0-for-5 with a pair of strikeouts before being replaced in the outfield for the bottom of the 10th inning. The cause of the injury remains unclear, and he should be considered day-to-day until the team updates his status.
