The Brewers outrighted Rodriguez to their alternate training site Wednesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Rodriguez went unclaimed off waivers after being designated for assignment by the Brewers earlier this week. He'll report to the Brewers' alternate training site in Appleton and remain on hand as organizational infield depth.

Urias is not in the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

Urias sits for the second game in a row, though he could return to the lineup for the nightcap. Jace Peterson remains the starter at third base for the afternoon contest.

Garcia went 2-for-4 in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Rays.

The 20-year-old continues to string together hits, although at this stage of his career they're mostly singles. Garcia is slashing .325/.341/.375 through 12 games in September with three RBI and four runs.

Marte (wrist) hit off a tee for the first time since being placed on the injured list, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Arizona manager Torey Lovullo is optimistic Marte will return before the end of the season, although the Diamondbacks have just 11 games left. The organization must decide whether or not it's worth having Marte return to play regularly instead of evaluating its prospects during a season going nowhere.

Lux is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Lux sits for the fourth time in the last five games. Two of those have come against righties like Tuesday's starter, Zach Davies. With a .163/.250/.349 slash line on the season, it wouldn't be a surprise if his role remains somewhat marginal, though those numbers have come in a small sample of just 12 games. Chris Taylor will be the second baseman Tuesday.

Urias is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against St. Louis.

Urias sits after going 0-for-11 with five strikeouts over his last five games. Jace Peterson takes over at third base.

McNeil (illness) will bat seventh and play left field Tuesday against the Phillies.

Gastrointestinal discomfort forced McNeil to make an early exit from Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, but the issue evidently hasn't lingered. He'll look to keep his excellent September going against the Phillies, as he owns a 1.300 OPS since the start of the month.

Frazier is not in the lineup Tuesday against Cincinnati.

Frazier hits the bench after starting 10 straight games. Bryan Reynolds slides to left field in his absence, with Cole Tucker starting in center.

Diaz was placed on the 45-day injured list Tuesday with a left groin strain, Craig Mish of SportsGrid.com reports.

This may not require 45 days worth of recovery, but with two weeks left in the season, he won't be able to return and this move allows the team to add another player (Sean Rodriguez) to the 40-man roster. It was a year to forget for Diaz, who opted out of the season after two games in late July, then rejoined the team in early September, only to play in five games before suffering this injury. He got on base at a .182 clip with zero home runs and zero steals in 22 at-bats.

Diaz exited Monday's game against the Phillies with left groin tightness.

Diaz was removed from Monday's contest to start the fourth inning, and he's considered day-to-day while dealing with his injury. The 24-year-old went 0-for-1 prior to leaving the game.
