Tellez is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Mariners.

The lefty-hitting Tellez will take a seat while Seattle brings southpaw Marco Gonzales to the hill. Luke Voit will hit sixth and play first base in the series finale.

Noda is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Cubs.

Jesus Aguilar gets a start at first base in place of Noda, who has slashed .227/.393/.386 with a pair of home runs and 12 walks this season.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

This was Goldschmidt's first multi-hit outing in his last five games. He took Drey Jameson deep for a solo shot in the first inning. The power isn't up to last year's standard for Goldschmidt, but he's slashing a strong .328/.449/.516 with two homers, nine RBI, 12 runs scored, six doubles and two stolen bases over 17 contests.

Montero is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Pirates.

Montero will sit for a second consecutive contest after making two errors in the field in Monday's loss to the Pirates. Ryan McMahon will take care of third base duties, while Alan Trejo covers second base.

Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Astros.

The first baseman took Jose Urquidy the other way in the fourth inning for his third homer of the season. Guerrero has been collecting plenty of hits to begin the year, batting .357 (25-for-70) through 18 games, but Tuesday's blast was only his fourth extra-base hit and the 24-year-old has a somewhat disappointing nine RBI and 13 runs, although he's more than capable of heating up in a hurry and racking up counting stats in a high-powered Blue Jays offense.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a walk, a three-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's win over the Padres.

The first baseman capped the scoring on the night by taking Reiss Knehr deep in the ninth inning. It's Olson's sixth homer of the year, helping to fuel a .296/.405/.648 slash line that also comes with 15 runs and 20 RBI in 18 games. It's there's a cause for concern with the 29-year-old's hot start it's his career-worst 34.5 percent strikeout rate, but it's hard to argue with the results when he is making contact.

Arias will start at shortstop and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Arias will be picking up his fourth consecutive start Wednesday, with three coming at shortstop while Amed Rosario has been on the mend from a back injury. Though prior reports have suggested Rosario is due to return to the lineup Friday against the Marlins, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com relayed Wednesday that the Guardians planned to call up top middle-infield prospect Brayan Rocchio from Triple-A Columbus, which likely implies more concern about Rosario's health than anticipated. If Rosario winds up on the injured list, Rocchio would most likely inherit the everyday gig at shortstop, resulting in Arias fading back into a utility role.

Vaughn went 1-for-7 with two RBI across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Phillies.

Vaughn went hitless in the nightcap, marking only the fourth time in 17 games that's occurred to begin the season. He's also shown increased patience at the plate by earning nine free passes across 74 plate appearances after accruing only 31 in 555 plate appearances in 2022. Vaughn's power has yet to emerge -- he has no homers yet has doubled seven times -- but he has otherwise had an impressive start to the new campaign.

Steer (knee) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Steer will remain on the bench for the third consecutive game while he manages a sore right knee/quadricep. Kevin Newman will fill in for Steer at the hot corner in the series finale.

Diaz went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's win over Cincinnati.

Diaz extended Tampa Bay's lead to 4-0 in the second inning, blasting a three-run homer off Nick Lodolo with two outs. It's Diaz's fifth home run of the year, just four shy of his total in 558 at-bats last season. The 31-year-old Diaz is now slashing .259/.380/.552 with 12 RBI and 15 runs scored through 56 at-bats.
