Fraley was removed from Tuesday's game against the Reds with a right lower-leg contusion, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Fraley suffered the injury when he fouled a pitch off his leg in the second inning, though he wasn't taken out of the game until the fourth. The Rays are considering him day-to-day for now, though he may sit out a game or two to allow any lingering soreness to fade before returning to the lineup.

Holliday (wrist) exited Tuesday's rehab game at Triple-A Norfolk with right hand discomfort, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

It's the same hand Holliday fractured his hamate bone, necessitating this rehab assignment. Holliday struck out on a foul tip in the first inning and was pulled from the game following the frame. It's the second time in the last week that Holliday has experienced right hand/wrist soreness, and he just resumed his rehab assignment this past weekend. With another setback, it would be a surprise if Holliday rejoined the Orioles before the end of April. Jeremiah Jackson and Blaze Alexander will continue to see increased playing time at second base for Baltimore.

Moncada isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays, Jack Janes of TheSportingTribune.com reports.

Moncada will get a breather after making four consecutive starts, during which he went 2-for-14 with a homer and three walks. Oswald Peraza will fill in at the hot corner and bat fifth.

Quero is not in the White Sox's lineup versus the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Quero went 2-for-9 with two RBI in the three-game series versus the Athletics over the weekend but failed the reach base Saturday and Sunday. As he rests Tuesday, Reese McGuire gets the start behind the dish, batting ninth.

Acuna is not in the White Sox's lineup in Arizona on Tuesday.

Acuna is getting a breather Tuesday after going 3-for-8 with an RBI, a walk and two stolen bases in the three-game series versus the Athletics over the weekend. While he begins the game on the bench Tuesday, Tristan Peters will start in center field and bat eighth.

Baumler (ribs) began throwing live batting practice Monday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Baumler has been on the injured list since April 5 due to a right intercostal strain, but he appears to be nearing the final stretch of his recovery. The Rangers haven't announced a firm timeline for his return, but they have confirmed he will require a few rehab outings in the minors before returning from the IL.

Bradford (elbow) hasn't thrown for two weeks due to tightness in his elbow, but the Rangers believe he will soon resume a throwing program, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Bradford underwent an internal brace procedure on his left elbow last June and made a rehab start earlier this month. However, the left-hander experienced a setback with the elbow, and Texas shut him down for at least a couple weeks. Bradford is on the 60-day injured list and won't return anytime before late May.

Clarke isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

Clarke has gone just 1-for-7 with a walk and four strikeouts over his last five games, and he'll stay put in the dugout to begin Tuesday's contest. His absence will allow Zack Gelof to start in center field and bat ninth.

Manager Skip Schumaker said Tuesday that Garcia was diagnosed with left shoulder inflammation and is considered day-to-day, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 29-year-old hasn't seen game action since April 16 and underwent an MRI over the weekend. Garcia was scheduled to receive an anti-inflammatory injection Monday, and it appears the Rangers won't be placing him on the injured list, at least for the time being.

Heineman isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Heineman has been struggling at the plate as of late, going just 1-for-12 with an RBI and a run over his last five games. He'll get a breather Tuesday; meanwhile, Brandon Valenzuela will start at catcher and bat ninth.
