Will Wagner DH | SD
Blue Jays' Will Wagner: Out of Wednesday's lineup
Wagner is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

Oswaldo Cabrera SS | CIN
Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera: Making second straight start
Cabrera will start at third base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
With Jazz Chisholm (elbow) hitting the injured list Wednesday, Cabrera will man the hot corner for the second game in a row and it looks like he'll get the first chance to claim the open spot in the Yankees' everyday lineup. Cabrera enters Wednesday's contest with a four-game hitting streak, but he's supplied a modest .245/.292/.375 slash line with eight home runs and three stolen bases across 275 plate appearances on the season. Along with Cabrera, DJ LeMahieu and Oswald Peraza could get looks at third base while Chisholm is out indefinitely.

Angels' Brandon Drury: Resting Wednesday
Drury isn't in the Angels' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Angels' Jo Adell: Not in Wednesday's lineup
Adell is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
Adell has an .806 OPS with two homers and two doubles through 12 games in August, and he'll take a seat for Wednesday's series finale versus Toronto. Kevin Pillar will start in right field and bat third.

Angels' Zach Neto: Receiving Wednesday off
Neto is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
The 23-year-old's trip to the bench will end a run of 30 straight starts, during which he slashed .343/.442/.608 with seven doubles, six homers, eight steals, 22 RBI and 21 runs. Luis Guillorme will start at shortstop and bat eighth Wednesday while Neto sits.

Kenny Rosenberg RP | LAA
Angels' Kenny Rosenberg: Back in minors
The Angels optioned Rosenberg to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.
Rosenberg threw five innings of one-run ball during his long-relief appearance Tuesday. He'll now be sent back to Triple-A in favor of Brock Burke, who was claimed off waivers from Texas on Tuesday and will provide the Halos' bullpen with another fresh arm.

Javier Baez SS | DET
Tigers' Javier Baez: Managing hip issue
Baez was scratched from the lineup Wednesday against the Mariners due to right hip discomfort, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Baez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer during Tuesday's contest, and it's unclear when he suffered the injury. The 31-year-old should be considered day-to-day until the team updates his status. Zach McKinstry is starting at shortstop Wednesday with Baez banged up.

Bobby Witt SS | KC
Royals' Bobby Witt: Homers, reaches three times
Witt went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's win against the Twins. He was also caught stealing.
Witt took Louie Varland deep in the third inning to record his 24th home run of the season. Witt exited Monday's game early with a bruised forearm, but he did not miss a beat as he continues to dominate in August. The 24-year-old is already up to five home runs this month with 13 RBI, 11 runs scored and a pristine .347 batting average in 12 games played.
