Bauers will start at first base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

With Rhys Hoskins (thumb) landing on the injured list Monday and likely to remain on the shelf through at least mid-August, Bauers should have a clearer path to playing time, though he won't necessarily rank as the Brewers' preferred option at first base. Andrew Vaughn was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Monday and started over Bauers in both of the Brewers' first two games of the series with the Dodgers, going 2-for-5 with a home run, two walks, four RBI and two runs. Though Vaughn will get a breather Wednesday, he could be prioritized ahead of Bauers, who has produced a .212/.329/.381 slash line through 140 plate appearances on the season.

Vaughn is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

After getting called up from Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Vaughn started at first base in both of the first two contests of the series with the Dodgers, going 2-for-5 with a home run, two walks, four RBI and two runs. Jake Bauers will get the nod at first base Wednesday, but Vaughn could end up seeing the bulk of the starts at the position while Rhys Hoskins (thumb) is on the shelf until around mid-to-late August.

The White Sox recalled Elko from Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday. He'll start at first base and bat seventh in the White Sox's series finale versus the Blue Jays.

Elko has struggled during his big-league chances thus far, putting up a .601 OPS and 38.1 percent strikeout rate over 63 plate appearances. The right-handed-hitting Elko could be a regular part of the White Sox lineup against left-handed pitching, but his opportunities to start versus righties could be more limited.

Aranda went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers.

The 27-year-old took Jack Flaherty deep in the first inning, Aranda's 11th homer on the season. He's showing no signs of slowing down in a breakout campaign with the All-Star break approaching, slashing .333/.370/.506 over his last 22 games with six doubles, three home runs, 12 runs and 12 RBI.

Gonzalez went 3-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-2 win over Colorado.

Gonzalez continued a roll that's seen him hit safely in eight straight starts, including five with multiple knocks. He's gone 16-for-34 (.471) with five doubles, two triples, two home runs and 10 RBI during the streak. Gonzalez mashes lefties, as evidenced by his .412/.461/.750 slash line across 76 plate appearances against them this season. His multi-position eligibility makes him an attractive asset for fantasy benches.

Torkelson went 1-for-2 with two walks and a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Rays.

Torkelson mashed his 21st home run of the season in the fourth inning to help the Tigers increase their league-leading win total to 59. The slugger has now gone deep four times over his last eight games, and his career high of 31 long balls, which he recorded back in 2023, is within reach if Torkelson can stay healthy. To date, he's played in 87 of Detroit's 93 contests and is second on the team in homers and RBI, trailing All-Star starter Riley Greene in both categories.

Turner blasted a pinch-hit solo home run in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Twins.

Turner pinch hit in the ninth inning with the Cubs down 8-0, so his second home run of the season didn't have any effect on the outcome of the game. The veteran has been relegated to a reserve role in Chicago and has struggled, recording a .215/.296/.299 slash line through 125 plate appearances. His .595 OPS is down significantly from the .737 mark he posted last year between Seattle and Toronto, and Turner's lack of regular playing time and subpar production diminish his fantasy appeal.

Kurtz went 2-for-3 with a grand slam, a double, a walk and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 10-1 win over Atlanta.

Kurtz turned this game into a romp with the second-inning grand slam to stretch the Athletics' lead to 9-0. He's up to 14 homers on the year, nine of which he's hit over his last 21 games. In that span, he's batting .286 (22-for-77) with 23 RBI and an 11:28 BB:K. Kurtz has a .250/.324/.527 slash line with 39 RBI and 27 runs scored over 53 contests this season. There's still a bit too much swing-and-miss in his profile, but he's made excellent contact when he connects -- he's in the 94th percentile for barrel rate (16.1 percent) and his 91.8 mph average exit velocity is in the 84th percentile, per Statcast.

Burger went 3-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Tuesday's 13-1 victory over the Angels.

Burger amassed a season-high four RBI, recording at least three hits for the fifth time this season as well. The 29-year-old corner infielder has been quite a big disappointment overall -- his .673 OPS in 2025 would be a career low if it sticks -- but he's at least fared a bit better at the plate after heading to the minor leagues earlier this year for a brief time. Across his last 41 contests, Burger is batting .258 (41-for-159) with eight homers, eight doubles, 21 RBI and 17 runs scored.

Arraez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Diamondbacks.

Arraez broke the deadlock with a solo shot off Merrill Kelly in the seventh inning. Arraez is up to five homers on the year, including two over his last 10 games, a span in which he's gone 14-for-39 (.359). Overall, he's batting .293 with a .736 OPS, 35 RBI, 39 runs scored, four stolen bases, 17 doubles and four triples across 85 games.
