Caballero is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Yankees, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Caballero struck out all four times he was at the plate in Saturday's 7-2 win and will get a day off to clear his head. Amed Rosario will serve as the Rays' starting shortstop Sunday and will bat sixth against Yankees right-hander Luis Gil.

Ramirez isn't in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Yankees, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Ramirez went 0-for-7 with two strikeouts over the first two games of the series. He will begin Sunday's game in the dugout as the Yankees send right-hander Luis Gil to the hill. Randy Arozarena will serve as the designated hitter Sunday, while Jonny DeLuca and Jose Siri start in left and center field, respectively.

Perez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Perez will take a seat for the series finale after he had started in center field in each of the previous four games while going 4-for-17 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and two runs. Matt Vierling will replace Perez in center field.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Rogers will get a breather after he started in each of the past four games, with the last three coming behind the plate. Carson Kelly will step in for Rogers as the Tigers' starting catcher in the series finale.

Meyers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

Meyers had started in center field in four of the Astros' past five games while recording four hits in 16 at-bats during that stretch. He seems to be the Astros' preferred option in center field for the time being, but he'll give way to rookie Joey Loperfido in the series finale.

Kiermaier (illness) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

Kiermaier will close the weekend without making a start during the Blue Jays' series with the Twins while he continues to recover from an illness. He felt well enough to enter Saturday's 10-8 win as a late-inning defensive replacement, so Kiermaier should be available off the bench again in the series finale.

Benintendi is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Guardians.

The lefty-hitting Benintendi will take a seat Sunday against Guardians southpaw Logan Allen. Tommy Pham will shift to left field while Rafael Ortega draws the start in center field. Benintendi has gone 5-for-33 with two runs and one RBI in May.

Raleigh went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Athletics on Saturday.

Raleigh's 387-foot shot to right center in the second inning served as the first run of the night for either side and also made him the first AL catcher to hit 10 or more homers in his team's first 40 games since 2003. The slugging backstop has cleared the fences four times in the last eight games alone, and he's reached safely in seven contests overall during that span.

Butler went 0-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Mariners on Saturday.

After a rare two-hit performance Friday, Butler was a table-setting presence near the bottom of the order Saturday while displaying some solid plate discipline. The stolen base was a nice bonus and Butler's third of the season overall, and if he's able to continue inching his on-base percentage upward, he could have some upside in that department considering his trio of double-digit steal tallies during his minor-league career.

Schuemann went 1-for-4 with a three-run double in a win over the Mariners on Saturday.

The rookie helped break the game open with his eighth-inning bases-loaded double, driving in all three runners to expand a razor-thin 2-1 lead for the Athletics. The clutch two-bagger extended what has been a solid stretch of offensive performances for Schuemann, who now boasts a .286 average and .423 on-base percentage over the 26 plate appearances covering his last seven games.
