Devers isn't in the lineup Wednesday against the Tigers, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Devers will get a rare day off after he went 3-for-9 with a double, an RBI, two walks and two strikeouts over the last three games. Jeter Downs is making his major-league debut at third base Wednesday.

Bride went 2-for-4 with a pair of hits in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to the Mariners.

Since going 0-for-3 in his MLB debut June 14, Bride has proceeded to record at least one hit in each of his subsequent six starts. Only one of his eight big-league hits has gone for extra bases, but Bride's high-contact approach -- he's struck out just once in 25 plate appearances -- should allow him to stick around as a lineup regular against both left- and right-handed pitching. Bride is expected to see most of his work at third base and second base, but he could be catcher-eligible in some leagues after logging 11 starts behind the plate for Triple-A Las Vegas this season prior to his call-up.

LeMahieu went 2-for-2 with a double, a walk and two RBI in a 5-4 loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

LeMahieu came into the game batting .192 (2-for-26) over the last seven days, but he rapped out a couple of hits and reached on a walk once to break out of his slump. His .341 OBP is likely good enough to keep him locked in atop the Yankees' AL-leading offense in runs scored, which bodes well for his counting stats. LeMahieu's 34 runs tie him for ninth amongst second basemen.

Paredes went 3-for-3 with three home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's win over the Yankees.

It was his first multi-hit game since May 30, and he is now hitting .200/.284/.600 with eight home runs over his last 65 at-bats. The Rays have dealt with several injuries to outfielders lately, and while Paredes plays the infield, he could see somewhat regular playing time in the short term if he can continue to make an impact offensively.

Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.

Suarez entered Tuesday on an 0-for-11 skid. It took him until the seventh inning to put an end to that slump, when he hit the Mariners' third consecutive homer to establish a 7-0 lead. The third baseman continues to supply solid power with 13 homers and a .438 slugging percentage through 68 contests. He's added 36 RBI, 33 runs scored, 12 doubles and a .227 batting average, and it doesn't appear that his recent slump will lead to reduced playing time.

Lewis underwent knee surgery Tuesday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Lewis tore his right ACL for the second time in late May and will now embark on what's expected to be a year-long recovery program. The silver lining for Lewis is that he's already familiar with the process, but he'll carry significant injury concerns for the foreseeable future after undergoing the same major procedure twice in a 16-month span.

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Urias is still rehabbing his strained left oblique but could be ready to resume hitting within the next few days, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Hyde didn't indicate that Urias suffered a setback or was plateauing in his recovery, but the 27-year-old looks as though he's progressing at a slower pace than the Orioles anticipated when he was placed on the 10-day injured list June 11. Even if Urias is able to take part in batting practice by the end of the week, he'll still need to prove he can run the bases and play the infield without discomfort before the Orioles send him out on a rehab assignment.

Burger will sit Tuesday against Toronto.

Burger should find himself in the lineup on a regular basis until Yoan Moncada returns from a hamstring injury, but he won't play every day. Danny Mendick will be the third baseman Tuesday, while Andrew Vaughn serves as the designated hitter.

Ramirez (thumb) will start at third base and bat third in Tuesday's game in Minnesota.

According to Paul Hoynes of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Ramirez wasn't on the field for the Guardians' early batting practice session, but the veteran must have put in enough work behind the scenes for the coaching and training staffs to clear him to rejoin the lineup. Ramirez's return from a two-game absence due to a sore right thumb is a major boon for a Guardians squad that enters Tuesday's series opener trailing the Twins by just one game in the American League Central standings.

Rendon underwent successful surgery on his right wrist Monday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Rendon is on the 60-day IL and is out for the season due to the surgery. He's expected to be ready to return by spring training next year. The 32-year-old hasn't played more than 58 games in a season since 2019.
