Busch is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rangers.

Southpaw Patrick Corbin will take the mound Tuesday for Texas, so Busch will head to the bench after going 2-for-3 with a double, a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's series opener. Justin Turner will start at first base and bat cleanup in his place.

Burger is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

It's the first day off this season for Burger, who is just 4-for-38 in his first 11 contests with his new team. Josh Smith is starting at first base and batting sixth for the Rangers.

Kurtz is hitting .412 (14-for-37) with four home runs in eight games for Triple-A Las Vegas.

Kurtz's assignment to Triple-A is notable, as all the other top college hitters from the 2024 draft class (aside from Cam Smith) were assigned to Double-A. The No. 4 overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft, Kurtz impressed in spring training with the Athletics, putting up a .973 OPS with two home runs and a 5:7 K:BB, and hasn't slowed down. His strong start to the season could see him called up earlier rather than later as a result.

Wade went 0-for-4 during Monday's 2-0 loss to the Reds.

Wade struck out twice Monday and is currently tied for the team-worst mark in strikeouts (13) over the club's first 10 outings. The 31-year-old started the season 0-for-16 in his first five appearances, though he had a two-game stretch in which he went 4-for-7 with a home run and two additional runs. However, Wade's struggles have continued in the Giants' last three games, as he's gone 0-for-11 while striking out six times. He's slashing .118/.162/.324 with four extra-base hits in 38 plate appearances this season.

Casas is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Blue Jays, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

The left-handed hitting Casas is getting a day off as the Blue Jays send left-hander Easton Lucas to the hill. Romy Gonzalez will start at first base and bat seventh for the Red Sox. Boston has faced two left-handed starters this season, and Casas was held out of the starting lineup in both games.

The White Sox re-signed Drury (thumb) to a minor-league contract Tuesday.

Drury was released by the White Sox late in spring training after suffering a fractured left thumb but is now back in the organization. He's been assigned to extended spring training for now as he continues to rehab but should eventually move up to Triple-A Charlotte. Drury has a good shot to eventually be added to the major-league roster if he gets off to a good start.

Triple-A Durham placed Morgan on the 7-day injured list with a quad injury, Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline reports.

Morgan didn't necessarily master Double-A as a hitter (102 wRC+) in 21 games last year, but with fellow Rays first base prospects Xavier Isaac (elbow) and Will Simpson being Double-A ready, Morgan was pushed to Triple-A. He is one of the best defensive first basemen in the world and an excellent contact hitter, but Morgan's power is fringe-average at best, so he has very clear strengths and weaknesses.

Double-A Richmond placed Eldridge (wrist) on the 7-day injured list.

He tweaked his left wrist on a swing early in spring training and has been brought along slowly since. Eldridge has been playing in games in extended spring training and should soon join Richmond, where he hit .270 with one home run in nine games last year.

Soderstrom went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs and a walk in a loss to the Padres on Monday.

Soderstrom first went deep with a 385-foot blast to right field in the third inning, then tacked on another homer with a 389-foot shot to right in the seventh. The third-year first baseman is off to a blistering start to the campaign, slashing .381/.435/.857 with six homers, 10 RBI and nine runs through 46 plate appearances. The six long balls are tied for the MLB lead with Aaron Judge, and Soderstrom is one of 18 players to have reached double-digit RBI to date.

Busch went 2-for-3 with a double, a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 7-0 win over the Rangers.

After recording no extra-base hits over his first six games of the season, Busch now has four extra-base hits across his last six contests. The 27-year-old often sits against southpaws, but he's an effective hitter against righties, and Busch now has a strong .831 OPS for the year. He posted a .775 mark in 2024, which was his first season with the Cubs, along with 21 home runs and 65 RBI.
