Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

The lefty-hitting Turang will retreat to the bench for the second time in three games while Atlanta sends a lefty (Chris Sale) to the bump. Andruw Monasterio will replace Turang at second base.

The Dodgers placed Graterol on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a Grade 3 right hamstring strain.

Graterol suffered the injury while making his season debut Tuesday, and although he hasn't yet been ruled out for the rest of the season, the timing and severity of his strain leave him with a very slim chance of pitching again in 2024. His spot on the active roster will be given to Michael Grove (ribs), who returned from the IL on Wednesday.

Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

The Brewers are facing off against a left-hander (Chris Sale) for the fourth time in six games, and the lefty-hitting Bauers has found himself on the bench for each of those contests. He still looks to have a hold on a strong-side platoon role while Christian Yelich (back) is on the shelf, but Bauers will cede his spot in the lineup to Gary Sanchez on Wednesday.

The Dodgers reinstated Grove (ribs) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

A right intercostal strain forced Grove onto the injured list in mid-June, and he began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on July 21. In six appearances in the minors, he allowed two earned runs in 5.1 innings while striking out seven batters and walking two. Now fully recovered, he'll take on a middle-relief role with the Dodgers in place of Brusdar Graterol (hamstring), who landed on the injured list in a corresponding move.

De La Cruz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

De La Cruz started the past five games after being acquired from the Marlins, but he'll take a seat Wednesday after going 3-for-22 with eight strikeouts. Ji Hwan Bae will shift to right field while Michael Taylor starts in center.

The Dodgers optioned Outman to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

The return of Miguel Rojas (forearm) from the injured list will squeeze Outman off the big-league roster and back to the minor leagues. After returning to the majors in late July, the 27-year-old outfielder appeared in seven games and went just 1-for-11 with a home run and two runs scored. He will likely be on the short list for a return to the majors should the Dodgers run into depth problems in the outfield down the stretch.

Blankenhorn is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

With a lefty (Blake Snell) on the bump for the Giants, the lefty-hitting Blankenhorn will move to the bench after starting in each of the Nationals' previous six games. Harold Ramirez will take over as the Nationals' designated hitter.

The Dodgers reinstated Rojas (forearm) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Rojas landed on the injured list July 24 due to right forearm tightness, and he played in just one rehab game in Single-A. However, now back on the active roster, the 35-year-old will likely start at shortstop until Mookie Betts (hand) is able to return from the IL. James Outman was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

Cruz (illness) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribunereports.

The 25-year-old was held out of Tuesday's starting nine due to an illness and will sit for a second straight game Wednesday. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will receive another look at shortstop while Jared Triolo starts at second base with Cruz under the weather.

Martinez isn't in the Mets' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

After going 0-for-10 with five strikeouts over his last three games, Martinez will take a seat Wednesday while Jesse Winker serves as New York's DH and Ben Gamel starts in right field.
