Holliday is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets, Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com reports.

Holliday started the previous seven games -- including two against left-handed pitchers -- but he'll take a seat versus New York southpaw Sean Manaea. Jeremiah Jackson is handling the keystone while batting sixth Tuesday for Baltimore.

Kuroda-Grauer (testicle) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday, Jason Burke of Roundtable.io reports.

Kuroda-Grauer underwent surgery in late July to address a ruptured testicle, and he's progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared for games. The rookie should return at some point during the final week of the regular season, provided all goes well on his rehab assignment.

Williamson (hamstring) reported to Triple-A Durham on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The 25-year-old landed on the shelf in early August due to a strained hamstring, but he's been cleared for game action after recently resuming baseball activities. Williamson has a .247/.309/.332 slash line with three home runs and eight steals in 84 games this season, and he may only need a few games in the minors before rejoining the Rays.

Lee is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

Lee has started 10 of 12 games this month but will take a seat for Monday's series opener. The rookie infielder has hit a rough patch at the plate in September, slashing .176/.341/.324 with three doubles, one triple, seven RBI, eight runs scored and a 9:15 BB:K across 44 plate appearances. Gleyber Torres is starting at second base, while Colt Keith mans the hot corner Monday.

Bazzana went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run, three RBI, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Sunday's 9-2 win over Minnesota.

Bazzana helped increase the Guardians' lead with a run-scoring single in the fourth inning followed by a two-run homer in the sixth. He's up to 12 homers with 19 steals in 112 games. Just as it looked like the rookie was starting to fade, Bazzana's bat has awoken in September. Over the last eight games, Bazzana has gone 12-for-26 (.462) with five walks, two doubles, three home runs, 12 RBI and eight runs scored.

Palacios went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 14-4 win over the Astros.

Palacios gave the Rays a 7-0 lead with a three-run homer in the third inning before scoring another run in the seventh. The 29-year-old has been red hot in September, hitting .333 with five home runs, 11 RBI, seven runs scored and three stolen bases through 10 games this month. On the year, he's slashing .235/.330/.379 with 10 long balls, 50 RBI, 50 runs scored and 14 steals across 369 plate appearances.

The Rangers optioned Cauley to Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.

Cauley was called up by the Rangers when MLB rosters expanded Sept. 1, and he served exclusively as a defensive replacement and pinch runner during this stint in the majors. The 23-year-old has a .207/.281/.345 slash line with one homer, one steal and 10 runs in 65 big-league plate appearances this year.

Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Young started the past five games -- including three against left-handed pitching -- but he'll take a seat Sunday while southpaw Jacob Lopez pitches for the A's. Michael Arroyo will take over at the keystone in the series finale at Sacramento.

The Red Sox placed Seigler on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to right wrist inflammation.

Seigler's wrist issue flared up during Saturday's game against the Royals, and further testing led to an IL stint. Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Nick Sogard will be the main depth infield options for Boston while Seigler is on the shelf. In a corresponding move, Willson Contreras (hamstring) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list.

Torres is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

It's the second straight game on the bench for Torres, who is batting .333 (9-for-27) with three walks, a double, one RBI and nine runs in his past seven contests. Hao-Yu Lee will man the keystone while Colt Keith handles third base, freeing up first base for Spencer Torkelson.
