  • Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Placed on IL with adductor strain

    The Mariners placed Canzone on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right adductor strain.

    Canzone initially suffered the injury during Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jays while making a catch and then aggravated it while running in Tuesday's 8-3 win. He'll be eligible to return from the IL shortly after the All-Star break, but it's uncertain whether Canzone will be ready for activation at that time.

  • Blake Hunt C | SD

    Orioles' Blake Hunt: Comes off 7-day IL

    Triple-A Norfolk reinstated Hunt (groin) from its 7-day injured list Tuesday.

    Hunt was on the shelf for a little over three weeks with a left groin strain. Norfolk brought Hunt back from the IL after he went 3-for-12 with two doubles, one walk, two runs and one RBI over four rehab games with High-A Aberdeen last week.

  • Ryan O'Hearn 1B | PIT

    Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn: Resting against southpaw

    O'Hearn is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    After starting against right-handed pitchers in each of the past three games, O'Hearn will head to the bench Wednesday while southpaw Shota Imanaga takes the hill for the Cubs. With O'Hearn receiving the day off, Adley Rutschman will cede catching duties to James McCann and occupy O'Hearn's usual spot in the lineup at designated hitter.

  • Orioles' Heston Kjerstad: On bench Wednesday

    Kjerstad is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    The lefty-hitting Kjerstad had started both of the past two days while the Orioles faced left-handed starting pitchers, but he'll take a seat Wednesday with southpaw Shota Imanaga on the hill for the Cubs. Austin Hays will spell Kjerstad in left field.

  • Orioles' Cedric Mullins: Idle against lefty

    Mullins is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    Lefty Shota Imanaga is on the hill for the Cubs, so Mullins and fellow left-handed hitter Heston Kjerstad will duck out of the Baltimore lineup. Austin Hays and Colton Cowser will pick up starts in left and center field, respectively.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Getting night off

    Urias is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    Urias will hit the bench after he had started in each of the Orioles' last three games, going 3-for-8 with four walks, one run and one RBI. Jordan Westburg will shift over from second base to start at third base, while Jorge Mateo covers the keystone.

  • Jose Caballero SS | NYY

    Rays' Jose Caballero: Not in Wednesday's lineup

    Caballero is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

    Caballero had started five of the previous six contests, but he will begin Wednesday's contest on the bench. Taylor Walls and Richie Palacios will form the Rays' double-play combination Wednesday.

  • Dominic Smith DH | ATL

    Red Sox's Dominic Smith: Out of lineup vs. lefty

    Smith is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Athletics, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Southpaw JP Sears is on the hill for Oakland, so the lefty-hitting Smith will hit the bench Wednesday. The right-handed-hitting Romy Gonzalez will step in for Smith at first base.

  • David Hamilton 3B | MIL

    Red Sox's David Hamilton: Out against left-hander

    Hamilton is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Jamie Westbrook and Ceddanne Rafaela will serve as the Red Sox's starters in the middle infield while the lefty-hitting Hamilton sits against southpaw JP Sears. Hamilton should continue to serve as Boston's primary option at second base against right-handers with Enmanuel Valdez having been optioned to Triple-A Worcester.

  • Wilyer Abreu RF | BOS

    Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Sitting versus southpaw

    Abreu is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    With southpaw JP Sears toeing the rubber for Oakland, the left-handed-hitting Abreu will begin the contest on the bench. Tyler O'Neill and Rob Refsnyder will serve as Boston's corner outfielders while Abreu takes a seat.
