Trevino is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

After starting three straight games -- all against right-handed pitching -- from Saturday through Monday, Trevino now finds himself on the bench against a righty (Bryce Miller) for the second contest in a row. Trevino still holds a sizable edge over fellow catcher Austin Wells in OPS for the season (.776 to .620), but manager Aaron Boone doesn't appear ready to move Wells into a pure backup role just yet.

Springer is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

After sitting out three times in four-game stretch from May 10 through 13 while he recovered from an illness, Springer started in each of Toronto's last six games while going 3-for-20 with four walks and two doubles. Despite his lackluster production over the past week, Springer isn't believed to be dealing with any physical issues, so his absence from the lineup Wednesday is most likely a maintenance day.

Clement is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Clement started at third base in six consecutive games from May 10 through 17, but he's since moved back into a utility role with the likes of Justin Turner, Kevin Kiermaier and George Springer all returning to full health after missing out on multiple starts due to illnesses. Isiah Kiner-Falefa has since moved back to the hot corner after previously seeing most of his time at second base when the Blue Jays weren't at full strength.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Jansen will get a breather for the series finale after he was behind the plate both of the previous two days. Alejandro Kirk will draw the start at catcher Wednesday.

Siri is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Siri has now started just two of the last six games as his playing time continues to dwindle. The Rays are going with Josh Lowe in center field Wednesday, while Richie Palacios will patrol right.

Palacios will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Palacios will stick in the lineup for the fourth game in a row, with two of his starts having come in right field and one apiece coming in left field and at second base. His blend of speed (seven steals in seven attempts this season) and on-base skills (.347 OBP) looks like it could be enough for Palacios to retain a regular spot in the lineup against right-handed pitching, even though he'll face more competition for playing time moving forward from the likes of Jonny DeLuca, Jose Siri, Amed Rosario and Harold Ramirez after the recent returns of Josh Lowe, Brandon Lowe and Jonathan Aranda from the injured list.

Langeliers went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in a win over the Rockies on Tuesday.

The slugging backstop got it done a bit differently Tuesday, with Langeliers showing some solid plate discipline while recording his second multi-walk effort of the season, both which have come within the last week. Langeliers' steal was also his first of the campaign, and with the pair of free passes, he's now reached safely in six consecutive games.

DeLuca is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Red Sox.

DeLuca's playing time has been difficult to predict. He's on the bench for a second straight game, after he had started each of the previous four contests. The Rays are going with Josh Lowe in center field Wednesday, while Richie Palacios will get the nod in right field.

Triple-A Las Vegas placed Wilson on the 7-day injured list May 18 with a minor knee issue, A's broadcaster Vince Cotroneo reports.

Wilson is slashing .438/.458/.652 with three home runs, two steals and a 10.2 percent strikeout rate in 28 games across Double-A and Triple-A. His BABIP was .487 at Double-A and .409 at Triple-A, and Wilson's 16.8 percent hard-hit rate is a very poor mark for a 22-year-old in the upper levels, so while his contact skill is elite, Wilson's surface stats overstate his roto upside.

Mullins is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

After playing the final three innings of Tuesday's suspended game earlier Wednesday and finishing 0-for-3 in Baltimore's 3-1 loss, Mullins will get a breather for the regularly scheduled game. Colton Cowser will shift over from his usual spot in left field to make room in the lineup for Austin Hays and will replace Mullins in center field.
