Wilson went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Angels.

Wilson has been used sparingly since joining the Mariners' big-league roster. He has gone 2-for-11 with two steals and two RBI over four contests since his contract was selected from Triple-A Tacoma on June 19. The outfielder is batting .220 with a .616 OPS, four thefts, one home run, five RBI, seven runs scored and a double over 57 plate appearances between Seattle and Baltimore this season. Expect Wilson to remain in a reserve role during his time in the majors.

The Red Sox acquired Harris from the Athletics on Tuesday in exchange for right-hander Ben Hansen, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

The Athletics removed Harris from their 40-man roster last weekend, despite the fact that he slashed .336/.441/.537 with five home runs over 178 plate appearances at Triple-A Las Vegas. The Red Sox were willing to make room on their roster for Harris, who could have a chance to contribute in the big leagues at some point in the near future while the club has contended with multiple injuries in the infield. He'll report to Triple-A Worcester to begin his time in his new organization, however.

Gusman is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Mariners.

Guzman is resting Tuesday after going 1-for-4 with an RBI in the series-opening 6-2 loss to the Mariners on Monday. Vaughn Grissom has the start at the hot corner and is batting second.

Loftin (groin) will start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Rays.

After sustaining a groin bruise late in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the White Sox, Loftin ended up sitting out Sunday's series finale. The game off plus Monday's team off day appears to have provided sufficient recovery time for Loftin, who will step back in at third base, where he's been serving as the Royals' primary starter since Maikel Garcia (hand) landed on the injured list. After producing a 1.006 OPS through his first 17 games of June, Loftin went hitless in 14 at-bats over his last four starts before exiting the lineup Sunday.

Okamoto is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Okamoto will receive a day off on his 30th birthday. The Blue Jays will roll with rookie Sean Keys at third base and in the cleanup spot in Okamoto's stead.

Mayo is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Mayo is sitting Tuesday for a second straight game after starting the previous nine contests. He's been spending more time at designated hitter of late with Blaze Alexander appearing to take over as Baltimore's primary third baseman, which could result in a reduced role for Mayo.

Alexander will start at third base and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

The 27-year-old has been used in a super utility role for the bulk of this season, but Alexander could be settling in as the Orioles' primary third baseman against righties over Coby Mayo. Alexander has garnered five of the past six starts at third base for the Orioles, and 13 of his last 14 starts have come at the hot corner.

Rosario belted a three-run home run as a pinch hitter in Monday's 7-3 loss to Detroit.

The Yankees were being shut out when Rosario came off the bench to pinch hit for Austin Wells with two runners on base in the eighth inning. The utility man came through with a blast to left-center field to plate the only New York runs in the game. Rosario had made four straight starts prior to Monday, and he could be in store for more opportunities in the lineup moving forward after Jazz Chisholm landed in concussion protocol following a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez in Monday's loss.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that McMahon (illness) will play a rehab game with Double-A Somerset on Wednesday before being activated from the 10-day injured list Friday.

McMahon is coming back from a throat and ear infection but will be back when his 10 days are up. The Yankees have used a combination of Jose Caballero and Amed Rosario at third base since McMahon went down, but McMahon should net most of the starts at the hot corner versus righties upon his activation.

Durbin went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 6-3 win over Washington.

Durbin launched a hanging sweeper over the Green Monster for a solo homer to extend Boston's early lead in the first inning. The third baseman has caught fire at the plate in June, slashing .325/.360/.614 with six homers, 13 RBI, 16 runs and five stolen bases across 24 games this month. Overall, the 26-year-old is hitting .231/.286/.393 with seven homers, 35 RBI, 31 runs and nine stolen bases across 76 games this season.
