Merrifield (head) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

The 35-year-old cleared the concussion protocol after being hit in the back of the head by a pitch Tuesday, but he'll still be held out of the lineup for at least one game. According to David O'Brien of The Athletic, Merrifield had a CT scan come back clean and could be back in the starting nine for Thursday's series finale.

The Angels are still "gathering information" on the leg injury Moore suffered during a Double-A game Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Moore departed Friday's Double-A contest in visible pain and hasn't played since. The organization hasn't shared details on the injury or its severity and has yet to come to a "verdict" on the issue, per Fletcher. Since moving to the Double-A level in early August, Moore has slashed .302/.355/.512 with five home runs, 10 RBI, 16 runs and two stolen bases.

Morel is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Twins.

It's a routine day off for Morel, who had started each of the previous eight games. Brandon Lowe will cover second base and Junior Caminero will be in the designated hitter slot for the Rays.

Gonzales went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Cubs.

Gonzales collected his fourth multi-hit effort over his last seven games since he returned from a groin injury. In that span, he's gone 11-for-32 (.344) with three doubles, two RBI and five runs scored. The infielder has a decent .268/.299/.393 slash line with five home runs, four steals, 41 RBI and 33 runs over 299 plate appearances this season. He's been the primary second baseman, when healthy, since his call-up in May.

Triolo went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Cubs.

Triolo's homer came in the seventh inning, giving the Pirates some extra breathing room. The infielder has gone 12-for-49 (.245) over his last 16 games, though he has hit three of his seven homers in that span. He's added a .206/.294/.305 slash line with 38 RBI, 33 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 367 plate appearances. With Ke'Bryan Hayes out indefinitely, Triolo has seen a majority of the playing time at third base over the last couple of weeks.

Merrifield cleared concussion protocol after being hit in the back of the head by a pitch during Tuesday's game against Colorado, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Merrifield will also undergo a CT scan just to be safe, per Bowman, but there is a chance that the 35-year-old second baseman starts Wednesday's contest. Otherwise, the keystone would likely be occupied by Luke Williams.

Merrifield was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rockies after getting hit in the head by a pitch, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Merrifield took a 94-mph fastball off the back of his helmet during the seventh inning of Tuesday's contest. The fact he was able to walk off the field under his own power is a good sign, but Atlanta's medical staff will likely evaluate him for a potential concussion. Luke Williams entered as Merrifield's replacement and could be in line for a start at second base if the 35-year-old needs to miss some time.

Lux isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

The Dodgers will be facing left-hander Reid Detmers on Tuesday, so the left-handed bat of Lux will begin the game on the bench while Chris Taylor covers second base.

The Giants optioned Schmitt to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.

Schmitt owns a .553 OPS across 38 plate appearances since the start of August and has seen his playing time diminish over the past several weeks. He'll now head back to Sacramento to receive regular reps while Marco Luciano comes up from Triple-A to take Schmitt's place as infield depth.

Albies (wrist) is no longer wearing a brace and took fielding practice Tuesday, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports.

Albies is doing some swinging in the cage but has not been cleared to hit yet. Sunday will be the six-week mark of his projected 6-to-8 week absence with a left wrist fracture, and things are trending to a return toward the back end of that timetable.
