The Angels placed Aldegheri on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a blister on his left middle finger.

The 23-year-old surrendered four earned runs over two innings during his third MLB start Saturday, and he won't be eligible to return from the IL before the end of the season. Aldegheri had a 3.60 ERA in two starts with Double-A Reading after being acquired by the Angels ahead of the summer trade deadline, and he posted a 4.85 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 10:10 K:BB over 13 frames in his first taste of the big leagues. The left-hander should have a chance to crack the Angels' starting rotation coming out of spring training, but he could also begin the campaign in the minors given he has yet to see action at the Triple-A level.

The Angels placed Teodosio on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right middle finger fracture.

Teodosio made an appearance as a pinch runner Saturday in his first game action since he suffered the minor finger fracture Tuesday, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the next 10 days. The 25-year-old will be eligible to return for the final five games of the regular season, though it's unclear if he's expected to be healthy by that point.

Vargas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Vargas will take a seat for the second day in a row and for the third time in five contests. Bryan Ramos appears to have supplanted Vargas as Chicago's preferred option at third base, though both players could see their opportunities dry up if Yoan Moncada (adductor) is able to return from the injured list later in the week.

Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

The lefty-hitting Lopez starts more often than not against right-handed pitching, but he's been routinely exiting the lineup against left-handed pitching of late. With southpaw JP Sears toeing the rubber for Oakland, Lopez will give way to Jacob Amaya at shortstop.

Fletcher is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

After starting in each of Chicago's last four games, the lefty-hitting Fletcher will retreat to the bench while Oakland sends southpaw JP Sears to the hill. Corey Julks will check in for Fletcher in right field.

Wilson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Wilson will get a breather for the series finale after he went 5-for-24 with a double, three runs and no RBI while starting in each of the past six games. Nick Allen will replace Wilson as the Athletics' starting shortstop.

Langeliers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

He'll be receiving some routine maintenance after starting at catcher each of the past three days. Kyle McCann will spell Langeliers behind the dish Sunday.

Schneemann will start at third base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Rays.

Though he'll enter the lineup Sunday while third baseman Jose Ramirez gets a day out of the infield and serves as the Guardians' designated hitter, Schneemann's time as a regular in the Cleveland lineup looks to be over. The left-handed-hitting Schneemann had started in just two of the Guardians' previous six games, with Cleveland facing only one lefty starter during that stretch.

Noel is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

After starting in four of the Guardians' previous five matchups with right-handers, Noel will take a seat Sunday while righty Taj Bradley takes the hill for Tampa Bay. The Guardians will go with Will Brennan in right field in place of Noel, who has gone 4-for-31 (.129 average) with a 30.3 percent strikeout rate thus far in September.

Walls is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

Walls started Friday and Saturday and will sit for Sunday's series finale after going 1-for-7 with three strikeouts. Jose Caballero is starting at shortstop and batting seventh.
