The Angels optioned Weiman to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

Weiman was scored upon in his last three appearances and had pitched each of the last two days, so he's being sent out in favor of a fresh arm. Trevor Martin was summoned from Triple-A to replace Weiman on the active roster and in the bullpen.

The Angels placed Campero on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right hamstring strain.

Campero injured the hamstring while running the bases during Tuesday's contest against the Guardians. He will be eligible to return in early September, but the outfielder could need more than 10 days to make a full recovery, depending on the severity of the strain.

Smith (neck) went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run Tuesday in a minor-league rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Smith logged his first game action since landing on the IL in early June due to a neck injury. The All-Star backstop went hitless in his first two plate appearances Tuesday before slugging a two-run homer to left field in the fifth inning. Smith caught five frames before exiting, hitting the target that was set for him going into the contest. He's expected to play a handful of additional games in the minors before potentially returning to the big-league club at the start of September.

Canzone is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Phillies.

The lefty-swinging Canzone has been an everyday player for the Mariners in the second half, but he's getting a day off Wednesday as the Phillies go with southpaw Jesus Luzardo on the bump. Jhonny Pereda enters the lineup at catch, while Cal Raleigh will serve as the designated hitter as Taylor Ward plays right field.

Conforto is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

With lefty Eduardo Rodriguez on the bump for the Diamondbacks, the left-handed-hitting Conforto will retreat to the bench in the series finale. Conforto had made starts at designated hitter in each of the last three games and went 5-for-9 with two home runs and a double, but he could be in danger of moving out of his strong-side platoon role once Matt Shaw (hand) -- who is in the midst of a rehab assignment -- makes his return from the 10-day injured list.

Young is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Phillies.

It's only the second day off all season for the left-handed-hitting Young, who will grab a seat as the Phillies send southpaw Jesus Luzardo to the bump. Brock Rodden will slot in at second base in Young's stead.

DeLauter (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

A tight left hamstring will keep DeLauter out of the starting nine for a third straight game, but the rookie outfielder appears likely to avoid a stint on the injured list. The Guardians felt comfortable enough using DeLauter off the bench in Tuesday's 8-6 extra-inning win, with the 24-year-old striking out as a pinch hitter during his lone at-bat in the top of the ninth.

Happ is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Arizona.

The switch-hitting Happ is sporting just a .527 OPS and 34.6 percent strikeout rate this season against left-handed pitching, so he'll get a day off as the Diamondbacks send southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez to the hill. Tyrone Taylor will cover left field for the Cubs.

Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Bailey will receive a breather for the matinee after he went 0-for-1 with four walks and a run scored while catching all 10 innings of an 8-6 win Tuesday night. Austin Hedges will spell Bailey behind the dish in the series finale.

Reds manager Terry Francona said Wednesday that Singer is dealing with soreness in his ribs as a result of a fielding play during Tuesday's loss to the Giants, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Singer sounds like he'll be OK, but the Reds will monitor how he feels while the hurler plays catch pregame Wednesday. The right-hander's next start is tentatively scheduled to come Monday at home against the Padres.
