Schanuel is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Schanuel has reached base at least once in each of his first 26 big-league games but will take a seat Sunday versus Minnesota righty Joe Ryan. Brandon Drury will shift to first base while David Fletcher starts at the keystone.

The Angels placed Cron on the 10-day injured list Sunday with lower back inflammation.

Cron's back injury has bothered him all season, and his most recent move to the injured list will keep him out for the rest of the year, as there is just eight days remaining in the regular season. He'll finish 2023 with 12 homers and 37 RBI alongside a .248/.295/.434 slash line through 278 plate appearances. Mike Moustakas (forearm) was reinstated from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Pratto isn't in the Royals' lineup Sunday against Houston.

Pratto will take a seat Sunday after logging a hit in each of the first two games of the series. Nick Loftin will fill in at first base and bat fifth in Pratto's place.

Schanuel reached on an infield single in the eighth inning of Saturday's 1-0 win over the Twins to extend his career-opening on-base streak to 26 games.

Schanuel barely beat out the throw to first base on his lone hit of the contest, but it was good enough to extend his franchise record of reaching base in 26 straight contests to begin a career. Per Sarah Langs of MLB.com, only three players in MLB history have exceeded that mark -- Alvin Davis (47) in 1984, Truck Hannah (38) in 1918 and Enos Slaughter (29) in 1938. Schanuel's impressive run has been fueled by an excellent 18:16 BB:K, and he's added a strong .283 batting average, though only three of his 28 hits so far have gone for extra bases.

Diaz went 4-for-4 with a solo home run and a double Saturday against the Blue Jays.

Diaz led off the bottom of the first inning with a solo home run -- his 21st of the season -- and also tallied his seventh multi-hit game in his last 14 starts. He's maintained a .426 average with nine RBI and nine runs scored in that span. Overall, it's been an impressive campaign for Diaz, highlighted by a 161 wRC+ and .398 wOBA.

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Saturday he believes Mountcastle (shoulder) will be able to return from the injured list when first eligible, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Mountcastle landed on the 10-day IL last Wednesday (retroactive to Sept. 17) with inflammation in his left shoulder. He stood in and took pitches during a Felix Bautista (elbow) bullpen session Saturday, and the first baseman has begun fielding grounders as well. Mountcastle won't be eligible to return from the injured list until Wednesday, but it's encouraging to see him trending in the right direction.

Calhoun isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday versus the Orioles.

As lefty John Means prepares to start for Baltimore, Calhoun will retreat to the bench. Jose Ramirez will assume the DH role Saturday while Tyler Freeman starts at third base.

Porter isn't in the Royals' lineup Saturday versus Houston

Porter will take a seat after going 2-for-14 with a homer over his last six games. Tyler Cropley will start behind the dish instead while batting seventh.

Kirilloff will be on the bench for Saturday's game against the Angels, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

The Twins made several changes to the lineup after clinching a playoff berth Friday night, though Kirilloff may have been on the bench either way with lefty Kenny Rosenberg starting for Los Angeles. Jordan Luplow gets the start at first base.

Walsh went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run against the Twins in a loss Friday.

Walsh took Minnesota starter Pablo Lopez deep to right field for a two-run shot in the fifth inning. It was Walsh's fourth long ball of the campaign, three of which have come since returning Sept. 15 from a nearly three-month stay in the minors. Aside from the power output, the veteran has struggled since rejoining the Angels, slashing .208/.240/.583 with a 52 percent strikeout rate and no walks over 25 plate appearances.
