  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Royals' Adam Frazier: On bench Tuesday

    Frazier is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins.

    Frazier will get a day off after making three straight starts following the injury to Michael Massey (back). Nick Loftin will bat sixth and play second base.

  • Trevor Larnach LF | MIN

    Twins' Trevor Larnach: On bench against LHP

    Larnach is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals.

    Larnach will take a seat Tuesday with southpaw Cole Ragans on the mound for Kansas City. Ryan Jeffers will slide to the DH spot while Christian Vazquez fills in behind the dish.

  • Alex Kirilloff LF | MIN

    Twins' Alex Kirilloff: Takes seat against lefty

    Kirilloff is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Kansas City.

    Kirilloff will dodge a matchup with the left-handed Cole Ragans on Tuesday. Carlos Santana will bat eighth and play first base.

  • Edouard Julien 2B | COL

    Twins' Edouard Julien: On bench Tuesday

    Julien is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals.

    As usual, Julien will give way to Kyle Farmer at second base with a left-handed pitcher on the mound. Julien has just three hits in his last 27 at-bats and could start losing work against RHP if his struggles persist.

  • Tyler O'Neill RF | BAL

    Red Sox's Tyler O'Neill: Remains out Tuesday

    O'Neill (knee) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Orioles.

    O'Neill had said previously that he was aiming to return to action Tuesday after missing two games with a sore right knee, but he'll instead begin a third straight contest on the bench. Rob Refsnyder is occupying the designated hitter spot for the Red Sox on Tuesday.

  • Max Kepler LF | ARI

    Twins' Max Kepler: Idle against lefty

    Kepler is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals.

    Kepler will avoid a matchup with southpaw Cole Ragans on Tuesday, a normal occurrence for the lefty-hitting outfielder. Manuel Margot will bat leadoff and play right field.

  • Jose Siri LF | LAA

    Rays' Jose Siri: Sitting out Tuesday

    Siri is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Athletics.

    Siri had manned center field for each of the previous three contests for the Rays, but he will yield to Jonny DeLuca in this one. The 28-year-old Siri sports just a .531 OPS and 37.2 percent strikeout rate this season.

  • Carson Kelly C | CHC

    Tigers' Carson Kelly: On bench Tuesday

    Kelly is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

    Kelly will yield to Jake Rogers behind the dish Tuesday against righty Jared Jones. Kelly garnered a hit in each of his last three games played, including a three-run homer Sunday.

  • Gio Urshela 3B | MIN

    Tigers' Gio Urshela: Absent from starting nine

    Urshela is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

    The Tigers will reward Matt Vierling's two-homer performance Sunday by giving him another start at the hot corner, pushing Urshela out of the starting lineup against Jared Jones. Urshela is slashing .273/.312/.318 without a home run across 93 plate appearances this season.

  • Mitch Spence RP | KC

    Athletics' Mitch Spence: Getting another turn in rotation

    Spence will start Tuesday's game against the Rays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Spence will make a third consecutive start for the A's after opening the season as a long reliever. Spence has lasted 4.2 innings and 3.0 innings across his first two starts, yielding three runs and striking out eight over that stretch. He's thrown 77 and 70 pitches during those two outings, respectively, and shouldn't be a viable fantasy option in most formats.
