Tellez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

For the second day in a row, the lefty-hitting Tellez finds himself on the bench while the Rangers send another southpaw (Andrew Heaney) to the bump. Connor Joe will fill in for Tellez at first base.

The Padres recalled Batten from Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old has been with Triple-A El Paso since late April but will join the Friars on Tuesday as Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) heads to the injured list. Batten should serve as a depth infielder while up in the big leagues and likely won't see regular at-bats.

Tellez isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Tuesday's game against Texas.

With southpaw Cody Bradford set to toe the slab for the Rangers, the lefty-hitting Tellez will take a seat on the bench to begin Tuesday's game. Connor Joe will cover first base for the Pirates instead while batting fourth.

The Nationals reinstated Gallo (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Gallo has been on the shelf since June 12 due to a strained left hamstring, but he'll rejoin the active roster Monday at the expense of Travis Blankenhorn. With younger players like Alex Call, Juan Yepez and Andres Chaparro playing well, Gallo probably won't be the everyday player he was prior to the injury. Still, he could mix in at right field, first base or DH as needed.

The Giants transferred Flores (knee) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Friday.

The transaction was a procedural move, as Flores had already been ruled out for the season after undergoing a procedure on his right knee earlier this month. The Giants activated left-hander Ethan Small (oblique) from the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move and optioned him to Triple-A Sacramento. The 33-year-old Flores slashed .206/.277/.318 with four home runs, 26 RBI and 19 runs over 242 plate appearances before being shut down for the season.

Gurriel will begin to play some third base at Triple-A Gwinnett, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Gurriel is 40 and hasn't started a game at the hot corner since 2019, but Atlanta wants him prepared to play the position, if needed, following the injury to Austin Riley (hand). Signed to a minor-league contract in April, Gurriel is slashing .300/.380/.498 with 12 home runs over 72 games with Gwinnett.

Freeman (finger) is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Freeman was expected to miss Monday's matchup and potentially a few more days after suffering an injury Saturday and missing Sunday's game. Despite being diagnosed with a hairline fracture in his right middle finger, he's been penciled into the starting lineup for the series opener. Skipper Dave Roberts noted in his pregame remarks that Freeman remaining in the starting nine going forward will be all about pain tolerance, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic.

Bell is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.

Bell will take a seat for the first time since joining the Diamondbacks, giving way to Pavin Smith at first base. Bell had started 16 consecutive games for Arizona, going 15-for-64 (.234) with four homers. However, he's 0-for-14 in his last four games.

Freeman (finger) will miss at least Monday's game and could be out for a few additional days, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Freeman jammed his finger Saturday and was held out of the lineup Sunday. He is set to undergo a CT scan on his finger Monday, which should give more clarity for a timeline for his return. Manager Dave Roberts didn't give additional details, though it sounds as if the first baseman could be in danger of missing the Dodgers' series against Seattle.

Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the A's, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Wade is mired in a 2-for-19 slump and will head to the bench Sunday as lefty JP Sears takes the mound for Oakland. Mark Canha is starting at first base and batting second in the series finale versus the Athletics.
