The Phillies designated Brogdon for assignment Tuesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Brogdon will lose his spot on Philadelphia's 40-man roster one day after surrendering four runs (three earned) over just two-thirds of an inning Monday against the Reds. The 29-year-old righty holds a 3.88 ERA and 1.26 WHIP in his MLB career and may attract interest from other teams in need of bullpen depth. Ricardo Pinto was selected from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Realmuto went 4-for-14 with a solo homer, two walks and an additional run scored across the first four games of the season, but he'll take a seat for Tuesday's contest. Garrett Stubbs will step in behind the plate to catch for Spencer Turnbull.

Kelenic isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Left-handed starter Garrett Crochet will toe the slab for the White Sox on Tuesday, meaning the left-handed bat of Kelenic will retreat to the dugout. Adam Duvall will take over in left field and bat sixth.

D'Arnaud isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Tuesday's game versus the White Sox, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

D'Arnaud has rotated starts with Chadwick Tromp since Sean Murphy (oblique) landed on the injured list. Tuesday will mark Tromp's turn to start behind the plate, and he will bat ninth while d'Arnaud rests.

Tauchman isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

The lefty-hitting Tauchman will begin Tuesday's game in the dugout as the Rockies send southpaw Kyle Freeland to the mound. Seiya Suzuki will start in right field while Christopher Morel serves as the DH.

Busch is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Busch is 2-for-13 with three walks and a run through the first four games of the season, and he'll head to the bench for Tuesday's contest. Garrett Cooper will receive a start at first base, batting seventh.

Gomes isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Gomes will get a day off Tuesday after going 0-for-9 with four strikeouts to begin the season. Miguel Amaya will fill in behind the plate and bat ninth.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that Turnbull prepared for 80-to-85 pitches during Tuesday's start against the Reds, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

That's assuming the game winds up being played, as there's been plenty of rain in Philadelphia and more expected. It will be the first big-league appearance since last May for Turnbull, who is filling in for the injured Taijuan Walker (shoulder).

Walker (shoulder) threw a live batting practice session Tuesday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson relayed a scouting report from pitching coach Caleb Cotham, who watched the session and said Walker "looked really good." It's not clear how many times Walker will face hitters before being cleared for a rehab assignment, but Thomson indicated previously that they'll proceed slowly with the righty.

Gage was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Tuesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for waiver claim Taylor Trammell. Gage was acquired via trade from the Yankees in February but did not make the Opening Day roster. He holds a 1.83 ERA and 20:9 K:BB across 19.2 innings in the majors, so there could be some interest via trade or waivers.
