House is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

House started the first four games of the season at third base for Washington, going 6-for-19 with a homer, three RBI, five runs and seven strikeouts, but he's also committed three errors. Jorbit Vivas will step in at the hot corner Tuesday to face rookie righty Andrew Painter.

Stephenson is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Pirates.

It's a routine day off for Stephenson, who has now started three of the Reds' first five tilts. Jose Trevino will do the catching and bat eighth for Cincinnati on Tuesday.

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

Julien has gone 1-for-7 with a double and four strikeouts while starting three of Colorado's first four games of the season, and he'll hit the bench for Tuesday's contest. T.J. Rumfield will shift to designated hitter and Willi Castro to first base, opening up the keystone for Ryan Ritter.

Steer is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

Steer is just 1-for-13 at the plate to start the season, so he'll get a day to regroup. Will Benson is handling left field and batting sixth in Steer's stead.

Beck is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Toronto.

It's the second day off this season already for Beck, who is 2-for-11 with a 2:2 BB:K in the first three contests of the season. Troy Johnston will grab a start in right field Tuesday in Beck's place.

Pereira is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Miami.

Pereira started each of the first four games of the season in right field, but he will begin Tuesday's contest on the bench. Tristan Peters will cover right field and hit seventh for the White Sox on Tuesday.

Priester (wrist) is scheduled to throw a 20-pitch bullpen session Tuesday before heading to the Brewers' spring facility in Arizona to continue building up his throwing program, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

The right-hander opened the campaign on the injured list due to symptoms related to thoracic outlet syndrome manifesting in his wrist, which initially developed late last season. Assuming he avoids any setbacks, Priester should soon progress to facing live hitters and is on track to begin a rehab assignment in early April. The 25-year-old will then likely require a handful of starts in the minors before his making his season debut in the majors after sitting out the entirety of spring training.

Berroa (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Berroa missed all of spring training due to a right shoulder strain, so he's going to need plenty of rehab games in order to get back up to speed. The 26-year-old isn't a given to join the major-league roster once he's deemed ready physically.

Zastryzny (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Zastryzny has been shelved since mid-March due to a left shoulder strain, but he's been cleared to test things out in a game setting. The southpaw reliever is eligible for activation from the 15-day injured list April 6, and he has a good shot to be ready to go on that date.

Brash (1-0) earned the win Monday over the Yankees, allowing one hit while logging a strikeout in a scoreless inning.

Brash kept the Yankees off the board in the top of the ninth inning, working around a Giancarlo Stanton one-out double before the Mariners delivered a walk-off win in the bottom half of the frame. Brash has held opponents scoreless through his first two appearances (two innings) this season, allowing two hits and no walks. The right-hander is a key high-leverage option for Seattle ahead of closer Andres Munoz. Brash posted a 2.47 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP and 58:18 K:BB in 47.1 regular-season innings last year, totaling four saves and 21 holds.
