Turang is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Atlanta is sending left-hander Chris Sale to the hill, so the lefty-hitting Turang will begin the contest on the bench. Andruw Monasterio will occupy second base for the Brewers.

Gelof went 2-for-3 with a walk in a win over the Giants on Tuesday. He was also caught stealing twice.

Gelof's small-ball production stood in stark contrast to that of his teammates, as the Athletics scored all five runs off home runs. The multi-hit effort was an especially welcome sight for Gelof, who entered the night mired in a 1-for-25 slump that had encompassed his previous seven games. Gelof had last tallied multiple hits in a game July 9, and despite Tuesday's success, his average remains just below the Mendoza Line at .196 due to his recent skid. The pair of failed steal attempts were an outlier as well, considering Gelof had gone an impressive 12-for-13 in that category this season coming into Tuesday.

Baldwin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Baldwin will get his first day off since he was promoted from Triple-A Charlotte earlier this month. The rookie infielder has had a tough time getting going in his first taste of the majors, going 7-for-40 with a 15:2 K:BB in 12 games. Lenyn Sosa will start at second base for the White Sox on Wednesday.

Massey is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the White Sox.

The White Sox have a right-hander in Drew Thorpe on the rubber, but the left-handed-hitting Massey will nonetheless begin the contest on the bench. With Massey out of the lineup, Freddy Fermin will serve as the Royals' designated hitter, while Maikel Garcia starts at second base.

Lopez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Though he's checking out of the lineup after starting both of the past two games, Lopez's short-term playing-time outlook has been aided by the Marlins' decision to demote trade-deadline pickup Connor Norby to Triple-A Jacksonville following his acquisition from the Orioles. Norby looked like a candidate to serve as Miami's everyday second baseman and should get the opportunity to do so later on this season, but for now, Lopez will likely remain the main option at the position.

Polanco went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI double and two additional runs scored during Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Red Sox.

Polanco lifted his 10th homer of the season Tuesday, tagging James Paxton for a solo shot in the fourth inning. The second baseman has been hot at the plate, clubbing four homers in his last five games and going a combined 7-for-19 with eight RBI and eight runs scored during that stretch. On the year, Polanco has recorded career worsts in OPS (.649) and strikeout rate (30.5 percent).

Lopez went 2-for-3 with a triple, two runs scored and a walk Tuesday against the Royals.

Lopez led off for the third straight contest and has tallied at least one hit on each occasion while scoring three runs. He has just a .049 ISO across 320 plate appearances for the season, though he has only a 14.7 percent strikeout rate and a 7.7 percent walk rate. If Lopez sticks as the leadoff hitter, he could be a decent source of runs for the final two months of the campaign.

Atlanta optioned Alvarez to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Alvarez got regular run at second base after Ozzie Albies (wrist) landed on the injured list, but he went just 3-for-30 with a 10:0 K:BB over eight games. Atlanta now appears prepared to go with Whit Merrifield (finger) as its regular at the keystone while Albies is shelved.

The Marlins optioned Norby to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

The demotion comes as a surprise, as Norby appeared to be in line to take over as the Marlins' everyday second baseman after arriving via trade from the Orioles on Tuesday. While Norby should be back in the big leagues sooner rather than later, the Marlins will evaluate him in Jacksonville for the time being.

Stott is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

The lefty-hitting Stott will get a breather for a day game after a night game while the Yankees bring southpaw Nestor Cortes to the hill. Weston Wilson will fill in for Stott at second base and bat seventh.
